I'm absolutely addicted to this product my "stylist" recommended for me. It's a really good leave in moisturizer/styling cream for my hair without making it sticky.

I just hate paying so much for something I might be able to make myself.

Any of you made anything like this product?

Amazon lists ingredients...

But you have the ingredients list on the bottle..duh! sorry! Looks like lotion ingredients... but I just started making lotions and creams. So I could be wrong.
Also if you’re a Prime member and do the subscription it may be a bit cheaper! That stuff is EXPENSIVE! 😳
 
The product is mostly water and silicones -- cyclopentasiloxane and dimethicone. The butylene glycol and guar gum are probably acting as thickeners.

Each ingredient from fragrance on down is probably no more than a percent or two of the total. Some of these minor ingredients are essential and some look to be mostly included for "label appeal".

A preservative should be included in a product like this -- that is what the phenoxyethanol and methylparaben combo is. The radish extract might also be included as a secondary preservative. I would guess the methylparaben might be used at 0.25% to 0.5%, but that's just a guess.
