Hydrating

I can't really think of any downsides! This is my first time using a curl cream, so I can't compare it to others.

I'm using it sparingly because there's not much left! The scent is amazing, and it's not sticky at all. I needed a good curl cream for my vintage perm, and I highly recommend this to everyone. Just a pea-sized amount on each side works wonders!

I recommend applying it while drying your hair in the morning! And if you apply it to your hair ends, styling it a few times will make it look even prettier.

So far, I haven't found any downsides! If anything, the unique essence scent of this brand's products might be a matter of personal preference.

After using it for a few months, I can definitely say there's a noticeable difference in how calm my hair feels! True to its volume-up name, if your hair usually sticks out, on days you use this it looks more voluminous and feels a bit softer. The scent is lovely, and it's not sticky after application, so it's comfortable to use. The texture is like meringue, as shown in the second photo! It doesn't drip, which is great. I also love the container - the product comes out neatly from the lid. I'll definitely consider repurchasing when I run out!

If you're looking for intense hydration, this has more of a lightweight, water cream texture. I'm not sure if it actually helps with curling lashes.

It absorbs well, feels moisturizing, and isn't heavy on the skin. I've been using it consistently and really like it.

If you apply it and then use a hair dryer briefly, it helps even if you struggle with controlling the amount. I recommend using a dryer for better results.

It doesn't seem to provide much help with curling. Since it's also difficult to control the amount, I probably won't repurchase it.

It does seem to hold the curl for a long time. However, if you don't control the amount well, your lashes can look clumpy. Even applying just a tiny bit, about the size of a bean, can make them appear heavy.

The initial fragrance is wonderful, but I wish it would last longer... If applied incorrectly, it can clump and harden. Just make sure to apply it evenly.

This is my second purchase. The scent is a powdery floral that likely won't be polarizing, though it doesn't last long. The curl-holding power is pretty decent.

While it was fine on my hair, it left an unpleasant, sticky residue on my hands - not great. Feels like a thin layer of glue? There's also a subtle chemical scent. It's usable, but not ideal.

(1) Holds perm really well! Especially perfect for finishing touches when getting ready to go out. It creates natural curls without making hair stiff like wax. (2) The texture feels moisturizing and lightweight when applied to hair. (3) Seems like it'll last longer than expected... Could be quite cost-effective if bought during a sale.

If you don't control the amount well, it can be disastrous. It leaves your hands feeling sticky

It revives my hair curls, making styling after blow-drying so much easier

Since I have oily hair, it seems to get greasy quickly, so it's tricky to get the right amount

When I apply it and blow-dry my hair, my curls last longer and my hair looks more tamed and polished!

There's nothing bad to say, I like everything about it... I'm almost finished with it and will definitely repurchase

- It's not sticky, so your hands don't feel slippery after use
- It's easy to style your hair!
- The curls last for a long time
- It has a pleasant scent

The floral scent is okay, but compared to other products (even those with questionable ingredients), it's not particularly appealing. I'm not sure if the ingredients are actually good or not.

It doesn't cause pimples on the scalp or acne on the back. It doesn't leave a sticky residue on your hands. It's great for styling and keeping hair neat.

The product is a bit thick, so I wouldn't recommend it for oily scalps. Looking at the ingredients, it's probably not suitable for sensitive scalps either. However, it worked well for my dry scalp!

I recently got a perm and bought this to help maintain my curls and volume! Many reviews mentioned the need to control the amount used, so instead of applying it directly, I squeeze about one and a half knuckles' worth onto my fingertip. I then rub it between my palms and apply it while scrunching my curls. This amount works perfectly for my hair, which is just past shoulder length. After applying, my curls definitely hold better and my hair looks less frizzy!
