A cleansing cream is a curl wash without the foam. There is no sulphate detergent in it, so the wash is mild enough that curls keep their moisture, and buildup still comes off.

Keracare uses the Ayurvedic botanicals amla, neem and shikakai here, with argan and abyssinian oils for conditioning. The hair goes into the shower dry and coated and comes out clean without the stripped stage, which is the whole reason for switching away from a foaming shampoo.

Massage it into wet hair and scalp in sections, rinse, and follow with a conditioner or a leave in. If you use heavy butters or waxes, run a clarifying shampoo every few weeks alongside it, since a gentle cleanser will not shift everything on its own.

237 ml. Suits 2c through 4a, and it is the right choice for anyone whose hair goes squeaky and stiff after a normal wash.

Application tips

Expect very little foam, which throws people the first time. Part the hair into four, squeeze a line of cream along each parting, and rub it into the scalp with your fingertips for a good minute before you touch the lengths.

Rinse for longer than feels necessary, because a cream takes more water to shift than a lather does. Condition while the hair is still wet.

Results

The scalp ends up genuinely clean, though the hair never passes through that stripped, squeaking stage on the way.

Curls stay soft and springy while wet instead of clamping into a tangle, so detangling happens in the shower and not as a separate battle afterwards. Colour treated and high porosity hair holds its moisture better across the week.
