Clinically proven to smooth frizz by 2x, deeply hydrate, and deliver 24-hour lasting hold, The Smoothing Air Dry Cream supports your best air-dry in just one step. Formulated for medium-to-thick hair types and wavy, curly, and coily textures, this rich, styling cream is designed to define your natural texture with touchable definition that retains its shape all day, without stiffness or crunch. The result is hair that looks hydrated, shiny, and visibly refined.
At the core of the formula is Yuzu Ceramide B, our hero ingredient, which helps strengthen the hair barrier and seal in moisture for smoother, more resilient strands. Paired with Coconut Fruit Extract and Squalane, it delivers deep hydration and long-term shine.
Designed to adapt to your ritual and save you time, The Smoothing Air Dry Cream works three ways: air-dry for soft, defined texture; diffuse or blow-dry with heat protection up to 450°F for polished smoothness; or restyle between washes to refresh shape and control frizz.
Finished with our signature scent, it proves you never have to choose between smoothness, hydration, and definition.
To Air-Dry:
Apply to damp hair and scrunch or finger-coil, then let hair dry naturally for smooth, defined results. Add more as needed for additional smoothness, definition, or control.
To Blow-dry or Diffuse:
Work through damp mid-lengths to ends, then blow-dry or diffuse for added volume and bounce. The smoothing heat-protectant formula shields hair up to 450°F.
To Refresh:
Between washes, mist or dampen hair, then reapply to smooth frizz, redefine strands, and boost shine.
We believe in fewer, better, higher quality ingredients, and meticulously formulate results-driven formulas without unnecessary fillers and toxins.
