Awestruck Definition Cream

Product Description

Many moisturizing styling creams fall short when it comes to hold. As a result, those needing extra definition often layer on gel or go without, feeling underwhelmed by the results. Today’s curls also need protection from environmental aggressors like pollution, heat, and UV rays. Meet your curls new BFF: a lightweight styling cream that does it all. It glides on like a dream, delivering just the right amount of hold (level 6!) with a soft, flexible cast. Powered by GEL TRAP™ technology, our innovative Gel-in-Oil emulsion delivers the deep nourishment of a serum and the definition of a styling gel. It deeply hydrates, nourishes, and defines curls while keeping frizz in check, up to 72 hours*, even in high humidity. The formula is expertly balanced to condition without weighing hair down, allowing for natural bounce and movement. With built-in heat and UV protection, it provides 360° protection to your curls*, helping defend curls against daily aggressors for healthy-looking curls.

How to use

Step 1

Take a small amount of cream. Start with a dime-size and add up if needed - a little goes a long way!

Step 2

Rake the cream through soaking wet hair, making sure you are evenly distributing it and coating every strand. Use the 'praying hands' method to smooth the strands. This helps sealing cuticles and reducing frizz!

Step 3

Select your desired styling method (scrunch/fingercurls/shingle) to enhance and define.

Step 4

Air dry or diffuse for a loose, soft style or follow with a strong hold styler for longer lasting definition.

Reviews

I’m loving it!

"I wasn’t sure what to expect. I have fine, thin hair that’s been ravaged by chronic illness and I wasn’t sure if the definition cream would be too heavy for my hair. My curls look amazing! I follow my usual routine and use the Awestruck Definition Cream as my last step, air dry, then break the cast with the diffuser. My curls have never looked better. Curlsmith takes my hair to the next level each time. Thank you!"

Lisa M. (5/5)

Lightweight cream for my fine curls

"Wow, I stopped using regular curl creams because it was too heavy for my fine curls, however this does not weigh my hair down and works great at keeping the frizz down. Highly recommend this product."

Hannah G. (5/5)

Definition Cream

"It didn't weigh my hair down (I have light hair) and it definitely defined my curls!"

Robin D. (4/5)

This may be the best product I use!

"I love this! I apply on wet hair and either leave to drive naturally or add a touch of Curlsmith gel for a different look and more definition and diffuse. It keeps my curls and prevents frizz."

Caitlin A. (5/5)

Good hold and Great definition

"This product smells great, gives decent hold and leaves my curls defined. I live in the South and on our super humid days I would still reach for an extra strong hold gel to keep my 3C curle defined and moisturized"

Natasha S. (4/5)

Lovely soft definition

"I have wavy hair that needs gel to stop frizz and keep definition. I don’t like my hair feeling slimy from a sensory perspective so have been on the lookout for an alternative. I am so pleased with this as it’s a cream and it feels good. No slime! It dries with a slight cast and offers really nice wave definition. I’m really pleased with the result."

Audrey W. (5/5)

Awestruck cream

"It worked really well with my wavy thin hair. I liked that it did leave a heavy cast. But I didnt like the smell as much. I am not sure if the mushroom in this is why it smells a bit yucky. But liked the way it gave my hair a look of being thicker."

Robin M. (5/5)

Awestruck, indeed!

"The new Awestruck Definition Cream is fantastic! I've been able to do away with both my styling gel and mousse, making my post-shower process one step faster."

Stephanie S. (5/5)

Great product

"I really enjoy this definition cream. It works well and smells great. I’ve gotten compliments!"

Faith H. (5/5)

Perfection

"As someone with damaged fine hair, this was made just for my curls."

Q&A

Which ingredients in the Awestruck Definition Cream provide heat protection? And up to what temperature? Also, will the Awestruck Definition Cream interfere with the hard cast created by the In-Shower Style Fixer?
Hi Jen, Thanks so much for reaching out—we’re happy to clarify The Awestruck Definition Cream contains heat-protective botanical ingredients that help shield the hair during heat styling. It will not interfere with the hard cast created by the In-Shower Style Fixer. For best results, we recommend applying the Awestruck Definition Cream first for moisture and definition, then layering the In-Shower Style Fixer on top to create and lock in the cast. Please let us know if you have any other questions—we’re always glad to help! Thanks, Curlsmith
Hi! I’m a big fan of your In Shower Style gel and am looking for a styling cream as an alternative styling product. Does this product contain any protein in it? Also, does it work well for 3c hair? Thanks !
Hi Alanna, Thanks for your feedback. We’re so glad you love our In-Shower Style Fixer! The Awestruck Definition Cream does not contain protein—it’s a moisturizing styling cream that helps enhance definition and control frizz. It works great for 3C hair, adding soft hold and shine without stiffness. Let us know if you have additional questions. Thanks, Curlsmith
Hi, what is the scent in this, it's so zingy! Pomelo?
Hi Ceri, Thanks for your question! Our Awestruck Definition Cream has a fresh, uplifting citrus scent with notes of grapefruit and orange — that’s probably the zing you’re picking up on. Let us know if you have additional question. You can reach out at hello@curlsmith.com. Thanks, Curlsmith
Does this product have the same strong scent as Hold Me Softly Styling Balm? I’m looking for a styler that is both protein-free and fragrance-free. Currently trying out the fragrance-free leave-in conditioner, which also seems to be low-protein.
Hi Cathy, Thank you for reaching out! Our Awestruck Definition Cream does have a light, fresh fragrance, so it’s not fragrance-free. It also contains protein. If you’re looking for both protein-free and fragrance-free options, our Fragrance-Free Leave-In Conditioner is a great choice, as you mentioned, and it’s also low-protein. Let us know if you’d like recommendations for layering it with other fragrance-free, protein-free products in your routine. You can send us an email at hello@curlsmith.com. Thanks, Curlsmith
Hi is this suitable for fine wavy hair or just proper curls please?
Hi K! This can be used on wavy, curly and coily hair :)
