Braidout Results Using Curl Creme Brulee



Recently, well a few months ago I spent a little time experimenting with some new products.  I was getting a little tired of always hand blending my own mixtures at home and decided to purchase products that were already blended when I headed out of town a few months ago.  It was a decision to also make packing hair products a simpler task.  I tried out Curls Creme Brulee.  I can't remember the exact price, however I do remember distinctly that it was one of the least expensive products at target geared for girls with natural hair.  It also had a lot of nice ingredients including 1 of my faves: shea butter.  Instead of hand blending my mixture, I used the creme brulee on dry hair to do a dry braidout with 8 plaits.  By the end of the day this was the result.  I liked this product for the fact that it yielded big hair that just does it's thing.  It didn't give super definition, and had less hold than using gel.  (They do have a gel in the curls line, however I didn't use it to do a dry braidout).  I liked it though, because it didn't cause shrinkage after misting with water and it was just nice, big, and fluffy.

The ingredients included water, aloe barbadensis leaf juice, glycerine, helianthus annus seed oil, glycine soya oil, ethlhexyl palmitate, glyceryl stearate, tocopherol, allantoin, shea butter, sweet almond oil, stearic acid, cetyl alcohol, sodium carbomer, potassium sorbate, fragrance, phenoxyethanol, caprylyl.

When I returned home, I must admit I returned to hand blending my braidout oil, however I still have some "Creme  Brulee" left and this is a product I will definitely be revisiting.

Have you tried out any new products lately?  What was your result?
