This is the Aunt Jackie's Curls and Coils Curl La La Defining Custard.
I had read lots of amazing reviews of this product online and it was one of the more affordable curl creams available in my local hair shop at just £5.99. I bought this because I wanted to find a cream that would help define my curls with adding frizz or leaving residue. I
I always look for reviews online of products I am intending to buy, so here is another one out there for people like me. I thought I would keep this review simple by just doing a list of the Pros and Cons!
Pros
First of all, this is the BEST smelling product I have used probably ever. It smells so fruity and the smell lasts all day!
It is affordable and is widely available on the high street
The packaging is cute and the tub can definitely be re-used
It is very moisturising and has a nice texture. I would say it is better as a moisturiser than a curl definer as it isn't sticky and it prevented my hair from drying out after being in the cold and wind!
My ends did stay curled!
Cons
I think the texture is too 'liquid-y' (if that makes sense) to keep my hair from frizzing, it isn't heavy enough for my 4C hair
It did define the curls but as my hair is so thick, once I had un-sectioned all of my hair it was just a big damp mess, therefore I think it would only work for me in a half up half down hairsyle.
Overall....
It's not something I would rely on if I was going on a big night out or for a special occasion. I think it would let me down!
I would rate this a 4.5 out of 10
I prefer....
Eco Styler Argon Oil Styling Gel.
This is the best for me to define curls and for around £3.50 you can get a huge tub! The only issue I have with this is that you do get quite a lot of build up, but if you wet your hair under the shower it will bounce back to life and you can add more!
Remember....
Not everything that works on other people will work on you and things that work on you won't work on other people...
