Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse is a light hair-styling foam.
I'd like to share my experience of using the foam and give some recommendations for styling curly hair with this product.
Ingredients' overview
Ingredients list
Aqua/Water/Eau, AMP-Acrylates/Allyl Methacrylate Copolymer, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Macadamia Seed Oil Glycereth-8 Esters, Polysorbate 20, Hibiscus Sabdariffa Flower Extract, Crataegus Oxyacantha Extract, Polyester-11, Parfum/Fragrance, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate.
At the beginning of the composition stands synthetic polymer AMP-Acrylates/ Allyl Methacrylate Copolymer, which determines the fixing properties of the mousse. Together with the conditioning compounds it also reduces frizz and gives shine to the hair.
The composition is a lightweight one: without heavy oils or silicones.
The experience of using Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse for curly hairstyles
The main disadvantage of the Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse is that it has a very light hold. If I use Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse solo, then I'll get:
volume,
light hold,
no stickiness.
If I use it together with some gel, then I'll get:
much better hold,
bouncy curls,
shiny curls,
smooth cuticle.
Here are some examples of styling curly hair with Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse:
But there is a HUGE difference if you apply the mousse in 2-3 layers. You can also get bouncy and shiny curls!
So here are some useful recommendations for styling your curls with the mousse.
Recommendations for styling your curls with Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse
How to style curly hair with just one mousse
Apply a leave-in conditioner if necessary.
Start with a small amount of mousse: one pomp, half of the pomp. You can also add more later!
Apply on wet hair in your favorite styling technique (I prefer "raking hands"). Scrunch your hair. Add another layer of the mousse for better hold. Gently glide it through your hair.
Add some mousse to the root area. You can also plop or microplop the hair if necessary.
How to style curly hair with a gel and Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse
Apply a leave-in conditioner and comb it through the hair.
Divide the hair into sections and I distribute the gel through each section.
Don't forget to spray your hair with water.
Scrunch your curls.
Put the mousse in the root area.
Plop or microplop the hair. Dry it with the diffuser.
Conclusions
Insight Volumizing Modeling Ecomousse is a lightweight foam, which adds bouncy and shine to your hair, when applying it in 2-3 layers or using it together with some hair gel. If you love natural styles, you can try to apply the mousse in one layer. But this method is suitable for those of you who have low-porosity hair.
