Proper natural matte finish with basically zero shine, and being fragrance-free means it never clashes with my cologne. The hold is buildable and never dries down crunchy.

For anything with height the hold just isn't strong enough on my thick curls and it fell flat by mid-afternoon. The matte look is nice, but I expected more grip for what it costs.

Adds great separation and texture to my wavy hair and holds a loose quiff all day without ever looking wet. The only downside is the price for such a small tin.

Great matte control for a short textured cut, but it took me a couple of washes to fully get it out. If I use a bit too much it leaves a faint residue, so I keep the amount tiny.
