General Comments
I bought Boots Essentials Curling Cream a while ago when I was desperate for something to sooth my frizzy hair whilst not flattening it's natural curl. What I got was a product which was good value for money.
For it's price it was never promising to be a miracle worker but it does work to some extent.
I haven't used this product on damp hair for a long time because I didn't feel that it worked well enough however on dry hair it has its benefits. It can define stands of hair and calm frizz but can sometimes make hair look crispy. If you forget to smooth it into the hair it can leave white bits, try to smooth away the white bits and the strand of hair goes straight.
If your looking for a product on a budget and theres a Boots store nearby then I'd go for it, its better than other similar products in the same price range

Boots Curl Creme is the most amazing product for taming naturally curly hair and its great value for money. Ive tried 100s of expensive salon developed gels, creams and mousses over the years and nothing compares. Used as a leave in conditioner on damp hair you can twist, scrunch and define your curls to perfection with a light and glossy finish unlike so many curl products which leave your hair dull and crunchy. On dry hair use less product to avoid straightening curls or flakey left over creme. Definately worth experimenting with...only problem is its always out of stock!
