Overview
Jamaican black castor oil leads the formula, joined by shea butter, keratin and vitamin E in a rich leave-in cream. It goes into damp curls and stays in to strengthen, soften and ease detangling.
A moisturizing leave-in with a clean free-of list, made for curls, is the reason to consider it. The limit is that it is a heavy cream in a jar and the scent is strong, so it will not suit fine, straight hair.
Who it's for
Curly and coily textures that dry out and tangle are the situation here. Straight or fine hair would likely feel weighed down.
Pros and cons
- Detangles and controls frizz
- Free of sulfates, silicones and parabens
- Castor oil and shea butter base
- Not tested on animals
- Heavy cream may weigh down fine hair
- Peppermint scent is strong
- Jar needs clean fingers to scoop
Performance notes
Castor oil and shea butter coat the strand and seal in moisture, which lowers frizz and reduces snapping when the curls are combed. The added proteins and vitamins condition the strand, and because it is a leave-in, those effects last between washes.
