When major American brands come out with a new line of products we don’t usually get them here in France until a couple of months later so when I was finally able to purchase the Creme of Nature Butter Blend & Flaxseed line of course I jumped at the chance!
There are five products in the Butter Blend & Flaxseed line:
- Double Duty Detangle & Slip Shampoo
- Double Duty Detangle & Slip Rinse-Out Leave-In Conditioner
- Double Duty Stretch & Define Pudding
- Double Duty Curl Definer & Booster
- Double Duty Elongate & Define Jelly
I bought everything except the Curl Definer & Booster, I don’t refresh my hair so I see no reason to buy a product designed for that. I believe in setting my hair and leaving it until the next wash day. When you think about it refreshing doesn’t really make sense, a little spritz of product is not going to make my curls pop again, to get my curls back I would need to actually wash my hair, saturate my whole head with water while washing it to remove product so I can reset my curls. Continuously spraying my hair with a product is just asking for buildup.
At this moment, I have 7-day curls in my head that are in need of a re-fresh aka wash hour. The curls in the back of my head are still pretty defined while the top layer that I put into a puff has turned to frizz.


Double Duty Detangle & Slip Shampoo

What can I say about this shampoo? It’s non-stripping, moisturizing, and smells divine? Every product in this line smells delicious. I don’t even need a lot of product to get a good lather so I can see this bottle lasting for a while which I’m not upset about, I actually haven’t reached for the Argan oil shampoo since I got this one.
I really like this shampoo and give it a 5 out of 5
Double Duty Detangle & Slip Rinse-Out Leave-In Conditioner

Ooh, chile…
This conditioner is my holy grail, it provides enough slip to detangle my hair so easily, I much prefer it to the Argan oil one, it’s not as thick so I don’t have to beat the bottle to get the product out but it is still difficult to get out and I feel like the shape of the bottle doesn’t help with that either. My hair is also highly moisturized after rinsing it out, I have used it as both a rinse-out and leave-in. For me using it as a leave-in and pairing it with the pudding and jelly gave me an icky white residue that I had to rinse out of my hair with a quickness. When I use it as a rinse-out I feel like I get the best results. My curls are always bouncy and defined.
This conditioner would have been 5 stars if the bottle shape wasn’t infuriating for me so it gets 4.5 stars out of 5.
Double Duty Stretch & Define Pudding

I have to be honest but I haven’t really used this product, I want to but I’m unsure how to actually use it. They said to pair it with the jelly for optimal results but I got white residue all over my hair. I’m really hesitant about trying it again and currently use the jelly with my mousse instead.
This was my first time using a pudding and I’m not quite sure if this is how it always is but this product was hard in the container and became creamy when I rubbed it in my hands.
For the fact that I don’t know what to do with it, I’ll give this 3 stars out of 5. It might change later!
Double Duty Elongate & Define Jelly

I really can’t choose between this jelly and the Argan oil cream activator because they both give me bomb curls but I have to say the jelly does give me more elongated curls, doing exactly what it promised!
You don’t even need to use much of it and I like to pair this with a mousse for more umph.
Depending on how much I use I end up with a slight crunchy feeling that loosens as the days go by but it’s not overly hard which will feel like literal cords.
I give this 5 out of 5 stars.
For all the products I will give it 9.5 stars out of 10
