Silicone smoothing serum delivers glassy shine and frizz control; too much goes limp.

What the community says

A dimethicone-based finishing serum for smoothing frizz, adding glassy shine, and shortening blow-dry sessions. It suits straight, wavy, and curly styling routines when used sparingly, yet overapplication can flatten movement and leave buildup over time.
