Product Description
Tired of gels that leave your curls feeling dry and stringy? Say hello to our award-winning Curl Defining Styling Soufflé, your new go-to for hydrated, defined curls that last. This silky custard is infused with moisturising ingredients like Babassu oil and features a unique, semi-solid jell-o texture.
It glides effortlessly through your curls, delivering bounce, definition, and buildable hold. As it dries, it forms a strong cast that may feel crunchy to the touch but don't worry, it's only temporary. Once fully dry, just scrunch out the crunch with a bit of oil, or serum to reveal soft, shiny, bouncy curls.
The Soufflé enhances shine, controls frizz and offers long-lasting curl definition-without ever compromising on softness or hydration.

Ingredients
Babassu Oil
Packed with antioxidants and healthy fats, known for its health and moisturizing properties.
Linseed
Full of fatty-acids and anti-oxidants, Linseed is known to help reduce frizz and give hair an increased shine.
Avocado Oil
One of the few oils that can penetrate the hair, delivering intense moisture from within.
Rub the product between your hands and apply on soaking wet hair.
Step 2
Use the “raking/praying hands method” to evenly spread the product throughout your strands.
Step 3
Select your desired styling method (scrunch/ fingercurls/ shingle) to enhance and define.
Step 4
Air dry or diffuse. Avoid touching your hair excessively while drying as this will create frizz. Once completely dry, scrunch to 'break the light cast' using an oil or serum to make your hair soft and bouncy.

Reviews
Not for me
"I'm 2c/3a curls medium length. dry and prone to frizz. Didn't find this product suited my hair and curl type. I find the consistency of the product hard to work with and using a liitle too much leaves my hair tacky. If i use the correct amount the end result leaves for more individual curls in comparison to the gel as its a lighter product. The finish look is good but over all it does not offer the hold i need to prevent frizz."

I really like this product.
"I really like this product. I don’t use it on its own, so I can’t say how well it holds curls by itself. It works as a moisturizing product. I apply a gel from another brand on top, and everything holds really well."
— Ekaterina N. (5/5)
Unusual but works well
"Never tried anything like this before but it does work well with my 2c waves. I have tried this alone and it does a good job as a one and done. With a leave in it works great wirh decent hold. Two stars deducted for the packaging - this should be in a bottle not a tub! It's very hard to open with wet hands and even harder to scoop out the right amount as it's so gloopy. P. s. - the guidance on the product talks about dimes and jello - none of this means much to UK buyers so it would be useful to change the guidance to be more helpful!"
— Amy (4/5)
Neue Formulierung ist schrecklich
"Ich habe das Gel in der alten Formulierung geliebt. Meine Locken blieben nach einer Anwendung für 3 Tage schön; definiert, mit Feuchtigkeit versorgt, seidig und frizz-frei. Die neue Formel reizt meine Haut im Gesicht. Die Locken werden trocken und frizzy. Jetzt muss ich mir ein anderes Gel suchen. Bitte bringt die alte Formel zurück!"
— Denise P. (3/5)
Brilliant styling product
"Brilliant styling product"

It’s a good gel. For
"It’s a good gel. For my fine hair there is not enough hold. Maybe holds a day. I still have to say that it is a great product."
— Pauline M. (4/5)
"This stuff is amazing"
— ria (5/5)
The best styler for me
"My curls have never looked better - defined, shiny and soft, i've ordered twice already."
— Ivana (5/5)
Good product but not for me
"Not ideal for my hair type as I have really coarse, frizzy and thick wavy hair but would be really good with someone with moderately thick and frizzy hair"
— G (5/5)
one fo the best gels
"Really love this gel - it's light-weight, not sticky, gives my fine curly hair great definition and remains good the following day - definitely a winner for me. My only issue is I don't want to get it in a tin, so I think I will stick to the mini size and know that when I travel, I've got something reliable!"
— Karena (5/5)
Q&A
I have decided my hair is better straightened. Can you still use these products but blow dry straight?
As the Souffle is quite a strong gel, we would only recommend using it for curlier hair types. As you are wanting to straighten your hair, it would be best to use a lighter cream or an oil to keep the moisture in :)
Hi, I’m considering whether to buy this product. I just wanted clarification on what the hold strength is please? In some photos it says it’s a 5 (bouncy hold) and other photos it says it’s a 8 (buildable hold)? Thanks

What kind of hold does the product provide? Unfortunatly the description isn't clear about that, it seems to be between 5 and 8.
This is a level 8 hold
Can you use this on dry hair to refresh?

Would this be good for taming baby hairs and frizz when doing an updo or hight pony. I always get very fluffy and frizzy baby hairs if I do a high pony and want a cleaner, neater look. Thanks
