Hongkonghomebrew Styling Cream Review<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Welcome everyone to this 3rd edition of our review with hongkonhomebrew. If you have not seen our previous 2 reviews, we had a great time discovering the different characteristics of the Styling Balm<\/a> and Styling Clay<\/a>. By far, our favourite one has been the Styling Clay<\/a>. So what\u2019s the deal with this 3rd product by this Hongkonghomebrew -The Styling Cream. Our initial guess was it\u2019s gonna be your usual cream-based hair styling products that harden and probably wouldn\u2019t hold too much. Were we right? Let\u2019s get down to it ;) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design and Packaging<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Styling Cream has no difference in packaging with the other 2. Clean and Simplistic. Housed in a white plastic jar, it has the right amount of information with the mentioned of Ingredients and application. There\u2019s a mention that the product free from elements that might be a little dangerous (if overused) such as paraben, petrolatum, EDTA..etc. Plus it is cruelty free! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very lightweight, and they kind of gives you a glimpse this might be a lightweight product. It weighs around 85g (3oz). And that, you can carry them with you while travelling on a plane. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scent<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Again no difference with the Styling Balm<\/a> and Styling Clay<\/a>. Lemongrass-Like. It comes from a Chinese Herb plant called Litsea cubeba. Known to provide reliefs for anxiety, fear, fatigue, pain or stress. The scent is really soothing and provides a sense of calmness. Not to overpowering, just the right amount. I would say this a job well done! (not unless you dislike lemongrass scent)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance of Hongkonghomebrew Styling Cream<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Texture <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As expected, for a cream-based product, you will expect nothing less than a soft and smooth texture, that you could easily able to broken down over your palm or even spread it easily on your bread ;) Seems like it\u2019s gonna be a smooth application<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The application was so easy. I tried it on both dry and damp hair. However, since I prefer more volume, I blew dry it before styling to give more \u201cair\u201d into my hair with some good texture. For a better hold, I was advised to be generous on my scoop, altogether I did around 3 – 4 coin-size amount. Surprisingly, despite the high amount of product I have it on my hair, it did not weigh down and still felt pretty light. After the application, it did feel there are some hardening and a little lumping of hair, but not as super stiff as hair gel type products. It provided a good hold to keep your style in place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Restylibility <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Best to restyle with comb since it will have a slight tug. Using fingers might do the job but not the best.
However, with this product, you actually do not need to restyle much ;) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Medium Shine<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volume<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I would say it does gives a pretty impressive volume when styled with a comb and blow-dry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hold<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The hold Hongkonghomebtew Styling cream is strong hold <\/strong>product if styled with good amount of scoops (3-4 coin size). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also achieve a Medium Hold <\/strong>can also be achieved with 2 coin-size scoops<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a product suitable for indoor with light outdoor activities <\/strong>with high humidity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Endurance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Overall, the hongkonghomebrew styling cream endured for more than 6 hours without restyling and it even extended to 12 hours with 1 time restyling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were wrong about the hold and now we were impressed with the endurance. It does reduce a little towards the very end of the day. But for a cream-based product,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
