Features

  • MOSITURE & DEFINITION - The Souffle is a moisturiser AND a medium hold styling gel all in one! It is a styling gel with a unique texture, a semi-solid jelly which provides moisture, bouncy hold and definition to any curl type.
  • HOW THE MAGIC HAPPENS - After it is applied, the Souffle creates a slight "cast" on the curls, which traps moisture inside and gives definition. This will feel slightly hard to the touch while the curls are drying, but once they are completely dry you just need to gently "scrunch" your hair upwards to break the cast and reveal soft, defined curls.
  • WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT - Inspired by generations of homemade hair remedies, Curlsmith blends fresh curl-loving foods with kitchen cupboard staples and rare natural ingredients to make premium products that really work. Healthy ingredients, professional results, no compromise.
  • NO NASTIES - All our products have zero spoons of Sulphates, Silicones, Mineral Oils and Phtalates. Plus they're Curly Girl Friendly, theyre 100% Vegan and Cruelty Free.
  • REAL RESULTS - We believe the proof is in the pudding, and it looks like our customers believe that too: : Changed My Life! This product is wonderful. Makes my curls pop! Ive been looking for this my whole life! The best gel Ive ever used.

  • Nice product, terrible packaging
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product is nice enough. I get the feeling that I've not really unlocked its full potential. I have thin, low porosity hair that ranges from 2B to 3A. It took a LOT of trying different methods to get be able to use this product without ending up with crispy, piece-y waves. I would say this is not for low-maintenance hairstyles. It definitely wants hair to be pretty wet when its used, though I can get away with only about a nickel size amount on all my hair. Then I use a denman brush to shape my waves before diffusing. I have never had much luck air drying with this product or simply scrunching. The smell is very pleasant and I do feel like it offers a strong hold, and the cast scrunches right out when dried, provided I didn't use too much. My hair tends to be frizzy and this helps to an extent. I first bought the smallest size and it lasted me a good long while, so while it is expensive I do feel like I got my money's worth. This time I got the larger size and I was extremely disappointed to discover upon arrival that the product had opened up in the envelope and squirted out. I lost a good inch off the top. For something that costs $40, I would have hoped there would at LEAST be some kind of guard against that. Heck even a piece of tape over the lid would have sufficed. I have to wonder if it was a used product to not have even one of those removable tabs under the lid. That's mainly why I knocked off a star. ... show more

  • A great alternative to more expensive products!
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've always used Oribe Curl Gloss since I started wearing my hair curly. The expense and inconvenience of having to go to the salon to buy it drove me to look for something else. My hairdresser actually recommended this, and I love it! The cast is very strong, so it takes some breaking up once my hair dries, but it works really well, and lasts longer. I can spritz with water and re-scrunch for 3-4 days without washing. Definitely saves a lot of money! UPDATE After using this for 10 days or so, I noticed some buildup, even though I didn't add any more of it on non-wash days. It also is really too stiff, and just doesn't seem to be the best for my hair type. I'll be going back to Oribe. Bonus--with subscribe and save, the Oribe Curl Gloss is not much more expensive than this! ... show more

  • The best lighthweight gel!!
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This gel is very light weight, dries quicker compared to the Pillow soft curls gel i was using before and it smells so good!! it leaves a cast obv since its for curly hair, but after i scrunch the cast with a drop of oil my hair looks shiny and my curls stay in place and have little to no frizz. I love this gel!! ... show more

  • Pleasantly surprised
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I haven’t tried a gel before but it works well for my wavy/curly hair even when it’s the only product I use and no styling.

  • Not like it used to be
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This has been a life saver for my weird combo hair texture for several years. I normally buy this at Ulta as it’s the only place you can buy it. With the nearest one 2 hours from me, I decided to buy on Amazon. I trusted it came from CurlSmith as it was the store name on here. The ups and downs. The up part is, the consistency is back like the original. The down part is the aloe has been pushed up higher on the ingredient list (see pics). I am allergic to aloe at a higher amount and now my scalp is now broken out, along with my hands. The other down part I have is the smell is not even the same as the last 3 jars I’ve had. So, either this is fake or CurlSmith has changed again. ... show more

  • Buying the Full Size!
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have searched high and low for a product that my hair will tolerate. I was very discouraged for many year trying popular brands with different methods and not getting the results I was looking for. I bought this on a whim and will be a forever customer. My curls have never looked better. I have 3c curly hair; it’s a bit finer but I have A LOT of it. It is very dry, does not like heavy products or oils, and will get buildup easily because it doesn’t absorb products well. That is not the case with this magic soufflé. I will section fully wet hair into two parts and use around a tablespoon’s worth of this product on each side. I run it through my ends, work it up towards the roots but do not apply on my scalp. I will smooth the curls between my hands in a prayer motion and then scrunch them in my palm and upwards towards my scalp. I flip my head upside down, carefully fluff up my roots with my fingers and scrunch again. I diffuse on the warm low setting for around 20-30 minutes until it’s about 80% dry and then use the cool high setting to finish drying. The results are incredibly defined but soft-to-the-touch curls. No gel, no mousse. No custard or serum; just this product. Never in my life has my hair felt so airy and light. 2nd and 3rd days curls look great too and keep their definition well; I just do a little spritz of water to wake them back up. I am so happy and feel a huge weight off my shoulders knowing I have found a product that works so well for me. I will never stop recommending it and will be gifting it to curly friends and family so they can get in on the magic. ... show more

  • Holy Grail Product
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this product but hate the size/price. For reference, I have 3A/3B curls and my hair styling philosophy is "Anything that takes more than 10 minutes of effort on my part is too much." How I use it: While my hair is still wet, I flip my hair upside down, apply the product to my hair (A little goes a long way) making sure to follow the instructions exactly, air dry and mentally plead with my hair to cooperate for the day. The souffle does leave my hair a bit crunchy but I don't mind and after shaking my hair out (upside-down), my hair consistently comes out defined, bouncy and full-looking. I've gotten a LOT of compliments whenever I use this product. The only con is the size & price. While a little does go a long way (I bought this product in November and am just now running out in April), it's still $12 for 2 ounces. I would love to buy the bigger versions but I like the squeeze tube packaging and don't want to have to dip by fingers in a jar or pay over $50 for the largest size. Other than that, I highly recommend starting off with the smallest size and seeing if it works for you. ... show more
