Spotlight Item: Windle and Moodie Invisible Day and Night Cream

The Windle and Moodie Invisible Day and Night Cream did something that's pretty much never happened before; it made my day two hair manageable. If I put most creams in my hair when it's dry it ends up looking greasy or crunchy, neither of which are ideal looks. This product however is incredible, I can use it on wet or dry hair and it completely revives my curls.

What's really great about this product is a little goes a long way for me, and that's despite having had thick, long, curly hair when I first got it. I got this as a Christmas present in 2016, and ended up
asking for it again this past Christmas because of how well it worked on my hair. I've recently cut my hair short (just below my collar bone) and I've found that this product helps give me volume at the top of my hair, giving me that 80s perm look that I've kind of been loving recently.

The cream has a bunch of great ingredients in it, including sugar beet for moisture (a must for my hair) and aloe vera to smooth frizz. It's been a great replacement for my Moroccan Oil which I leave at home when I'm at uni. The aloe vera does a great job of smoothing out any frizz that's been created either during the day or overnight while I've been asleep. I've found that if I'm having a bad hair day this usually helps to reset the curls and frizz, and even if it doesn't get my hair looking wonderful (sometimes my hair's so far gone it needs a miracle, but I don't have time to wash it) it can at least get me to the end of the day without needing my hair up in a ponytail. Another major bonus in the ingredients list is that it has a UV filter. Your skin isn't the only thing that needs protection from the sun! The cream is also vegan, so if you live a vegan lifestyle this is definitely worth a try.


I tend not to use this on my hair when it's wet just because I want to make it last as long as I can, but on the occasions that I have, I've found that it gives me bouncier, more defined curls, and much more volume at my roots. If I use it on dry hair it feels like a no-hassle dry shampoo in the way that it revives my hair, adds a bit of volume at the roots and redefines curls while minimising frizz. I honestly can't rave about this enough. Even on dry hair, it seriously lives up to the 'invisible' part of its name in a way most hair products don't for me, which makes it less of a hassle to use.

The smell is also a major plus. It's one of those creams that has a nice fresh scent. I don't really know how to describe it beyond that, but it's really pleasant without being overwhelming. The shampoo I'm using right now is coconut scented, and when I use the cream on my hair right after a shower I honestly feel like I've walked into a spa because everything smells so nice.

This is definitely on the pricier side of the spectrum, so if you don't want to stretch your budget and you've got low-maintenance hair this isn't a must have. However, if you're like me and you've got thick hair that's quite temperamental I'd say this is worth the price tag. My day two hair has always needed to be confined to a ponytail or a bun in the past, but this product has allowed me to leave it down without looking like I've been dragged through a bush. I'm not exaggerating when I say this cream has managed to turn quite a few bad hair days into at least decent hair days if not fully-blown good ones.
