Who it's for
Lifestyling Smoothing Cream is for those with medium to coarse hair who want a sleek, smooth, glossy finish — particularly fans of long, straight or wavy styles, those who blow-dry the hair smooth, and anyone who battles frizz or humidity. Equally well-suited to coloured hair, where the UV filter helps protect the colour treatment. A natural pair with the wider milk_shake Lifestyling range.
How to use
- Wash and condition the hair with a milk_shake-recommended shampoo and conditioner.
- Towel-dry the hair until just damp.
- Dispense a 10-pence-coin-sized amount of smoothing cream into the palms (use less for short hair, more for long).
- Rub between the palms to warm.
- Distribute evenly through the mid-lengths and ends — avoid the roots.
- Comb through with a wide-tooth comb to ensure even distribution.
- Style as desired — blow-dry smooth, straighten with irons, or let air-dry.
- Heat-styling boosts the smoothing effect.
