Best for Curly & Wavy Hair

While Styling (Heat Styling)

On Dry Hair (Finishing)
Best Finishing Serum
The ILES FORMULA Weightless Styling Cream & Finishing Serum with silk extract is a non-greasy, anti-frizz blow dry product that repairs damaged hair while delivering a smooth, polished finish. Apply a small amount to dry hair as your final step.
Best Anti-Frizz Serum for Humidity
