Cetearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol and the conditioning quats build a creamy base that clings to damp hair and gives it slip while you shape it. Linseed oil, panthenol and the wheat, soy and oat complex bring emollience and body to the fibre, and the light silicone blend forms the smooth outer layer that keeps frizz from returning as the curl dries. Citric acid keeps the pH low so the cuticle stays flat.

Learn moreMeet the Retrô Cosméticos Poder dos Cachos Curl Defining Leave-In Cream – 10.1 fl oz (300 ml), the finishing step of Brazil's "Power of the Curls" ritual and the product that actually draws the curl. It is linseed oil in cream form: you scrunch it into damp hair, and the spiral takes shape as it dries.
Linseed (flaxseed) oil brings a particular combination of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and is naturally rich in ceramides, so it works on the cortex of the fibre to nourish and define. Hydrolysed wheat and soy proteins and oat extract add body, while a light silicone blend seals the cuticle scales so shine comes back and frizz stays down.
It is a no-rinse cream for wavy, curly and coily hair — curvatures 2ABC, 3ABC and 4ABC — and it gives lengths softness, shine and the natural contour of a well-behaved spiral.
Key Features:
- Brazilian linseed (flaxseed) oil: Linum Usitatissimum Seed Oil, rich in omegas 3 and 6 and naturally high in ceramides, nourishes as it defines.
- High curl definition: scrunching it into damp hair helps the spiral form cleanly instead of frizzing apart.
- Frizz control: a light silicone blend helps seal the cuticle scales so lengths stay smooth as they dry.
- Protein and oat complex: hydrolysed wheat and soy proteins with Avena Sativa meal extract help give curls body.
- Shine and softness: panthenol and the emollient base leave hair supple rather than crunchy.
- Made for 2ABC, 3ABC and 4ABC curls: wavy, curly and coily patterns all fit this cream.
- PETA-approved brand: Retrô Cosméticos carries PETA's Global Animal Test Policy approval.
How To Use
- Wash first: cleanse with the Poder dos Cachos low poo shampoo and towel-dry lightly, without rubbing.
- Shake: shake the bottle before use.
- Distribute: spread the cream through the full length down to the ends.
- Do not rinse: leave it in — this is a no-rinse product.
- Scrunch: finish by squeezing the lengths upward in your hand to activate the curls, then let them dry.
Expert Tip: pair it with the Retrô Cosméticos Poder dos Cachos Low Poo Hydrating Shampoo (10.1 fl oz / 300 ml) — the sulphate-free wash leaves curls clean but never stripped, which is exactly the canvas this cream needs to define properly.

FAQ
Do I rinse this out?
No. It is a leave-in cream — a creme de pentear in Portuguese. Apply it to damp hair, scrunch, and let the curls dry.
How much should I use?
Start small and add more if needed. Curls that feel weighed down usually got too much product; curls that frizz as they dry usually got too little.
Is this an authentic Brazilian product?
Yes. It is made in Brazil by Retrô Cosméticos (Grupo Felps) and sourced directly, so you receive the original Brazilian retail packaging, labelled in Portuguese.
Which curl types is it for?
Wavy, curly and coily hair — the label lists curvatures 2ABC, 3ABC and 4ABC.
Do you ship internationally, and can I return it?
Yes — we ship worldwide from our Brazilian sourcing network, and unopened items can be returned under our standard returns policy. Tracking is provided on every order.
