- Instant Definition: Groups and enhances curls and coils for a uniform, polished appearance.
- Touchable Softness: Leaves hair feeling silky and manageable, completely avoiding the "gel-cast" or stiff finish.
- Superior Frizz Control: Smooths the hair surface to prevent flyaways and frizz caused by dryness or humidity.
- Weightless Hydration: Delivers essential moisture to the hair shaft without weighing down fine or medium textures.
- Enhanced Elasticity: Improves the hair's natural bounce and ability to retain its curl shape throughout the day.
- Oat Peptide: Derived from oat kernels; forms a protective barrier on the hair to lock in moisture and boost shine.
- Tapioca Starch: Provides a soft, natural hold and helps to define curl shape without a "crunchy" residue.
- Sea Buckthorn (Obliphica): amika’s signature superfruit, rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin A, and Omega 7 for intensive nourishment.
- Weather-Proof Formula: Specifically designed to maintain curl integrity in high-humidity environments.
- Clean Beauty: Vegan-certified and free from sulfates (SLS, SLES, ALS), parabens, phthalates, and mineral oil.
- Compatibility: Safe for all curl patterns (2A–4C) and safe for colour-treated or chemically processed hair.
- 1. Preparation: Start with clean, damp hair (for best results, use after amika Hydro Rush or Normcore shampoo).
- 2. Apply: Work a coin-sized amount through your palms and distribute evenly from roots to ends.
- 3. Technique: Scrunch upward to encourage curl formation, or use the "shingling" method for more defined coils.
- 4. Dry: Allow hair to air-dry for a soft finish, or use a diffuser on low heat to add volume and set the curl.
- 5. Pro Tip: For extra-thirsty curls, layer Curl Corps Defining Cream over amika Hydro Rush Leave-In. If you need maximum, long-lasting hold, follow up with amika Curl Corps Enhancing Gel.
Will this cream make my fine curls look flat?
No. Curl Corps is specifically formulated to be lightweight. While it provides moisture and definition, it doesn't contain heavy oils or waxes that typically weigh down fine hair types.
Does this product contain silicones?
Curl Corps Defining Cream is formulated without heavy silicones. It focuses on using Oat Peptides and Tapioca Starch to provide slip and definition while allowing your hair to breathe.
Is this safe for my colour-treated hair?
Absolutely! All amika products are 100% colour-safe and sulfate-free, ensuring your professional colour stays vibrant while your curls stay healthy.
