The Brazilian Curly Cocktail Cream ($13.99) and Cocktail Mousse ($13.99) helps to achieve soft, defined, frizz free curls. Moreover, they contain a blend of organic Brazilian oils including: babassu, buriti buriti, copaiba oil and muru muru.

This super combo of oils absorbs into the hair shaft locking in moisture and giving ultimate definition and moisture. Furthermore, The Honey & Ginger Styling Gel ($11.99) contains more than 70% certified organic ingredients including ginger and babassu! As a result both are used to nourish and hydrate hair while delivering manageable hold, frizz reduction and curl definition. This trio of products help acheive flawless twist outs, flat twists, flexirod sets, etc.

Mielle Organics prides themselves on providing their consumers with products that aid in maintaining and managing healthy hair.

Mielle Organics Launches Three New Products – Seeing Is Believing

Ladies you HAVE to see the Brazilian Curl Mousse in action. What it can do is simply astounding. CEO Monique Rodriquez does not just design her products, she uses them herself. Check out this look she posted to the Gram:

“I swear I’m obsessed with my Brazilian curl mousse. I’m doing flexi rods everyday. It’s so amazing I can wear a flexi set and comb my hair out as you can see pictured. My hair is still super soft and doesn’t feel like I have any product build up or anything.

So then instead of washing to redo a set I just brushed out the old set. Then will redo using just the curl mousse for an amazing super light curl!”

Also, in case you are wondering, yes that is all of her hair! Gorgeous right? Therefore, give your strands the Mielle Organics touch, you will not be sorry!
