Our Take
A clear styling gel with a medium hold that defines curls and controls frizz without crunchiness. Polysorbate 20 and Carbomer provide structure, while Shea Butter and Coconut Oil keep strands moisturised. Forms a light cast that scrunches out easily. Works across most curl types — particularly good for 3a–4a hair looking for day-long definition without stiffness. Does not contain alcohol as a drying agent. Part of the Coconut & Hibiscus line.
