Bouclème | The Brand
“When my 2 beautiful curly girls entered the world, it was important for me to help them love their curls. I needed to be a curly role model for them to see the beauty in having a head full of curls. I was determined that they wouldn’t wake up every day feeling cursed, as I did for so long.” – Michele
Eco, Ethical & Animal Friendly
Ingredients & Scent
“I want curly haired women to embrace their natural curl. Women have been told, for far too long, to straighten and flatten their curls. My ultimate ambition is that everyone celebrates their curls. This is about learning to love your natural and beautiful hair type. Our celebration of curls can be seen on the Bouclème website and we want women to share their unique journey of being #curlyandproud.” – Michele
Price & Availability

Bouclème v Deva Curl
Hydrating Hair Cleanser – The Blue One
- Sea Salt
- Mongongo Oil
- Sea Buckthorn Oil
- Camellia Oil
- Coconut Oil
- Castor Oil
Curl Cleanser – The Green One
This is a no-poo, or co-wash. For me this is much more “hydrating” than the blue one, but in a good way. It thoroughly cleanses the scalp and hair without upsetting the natural moisture balance or leaving those oils behind that the blue one does. It doesn’t contain any harsh foaming detergents, and leaves my hair feeling clean, fresh, hydrated and ready for conditioner. It’s got quite good slip and I can de-tangle with it, which is always a great sign of a really good (curly girl-approved) shampoo! Buy it here £15/€22/$25 for 300ml
- Argan Oil
- Virgin Coconut Oil
- Aloe Vera
- Linseed (same/similar to flax seed)
- Pomegranate Extracts
- Honey

Curl Conditioner – The Orange One
- Virgin Coconut Oil
- Argan Oil and
- Aloe Vera Leaf Juice
Intensive Moisture Treatment – The Purple One
A new addition to my Bouclème line up. This nutrient-rich and deeply nourishing formula is perfect for dry, parched hair in need of hydration, strength and shine. It claims to improve curl definition, boost elasticity, regenerate hair, decrease breakage, de-tangle, hydrate and shield the cuticle. For curlies who find the Curl Conditioner isn’t enough, they reach for this instead. It’s a much thicker, heavier consistency. If you have dry, damaged hair in need of moisture and your hair responds well to oils, you will love this product. You only need a small amount and best results are achieved when you really work it into the hair and use a thermal heat cap. (Did you know I’m now selling Curly Cailín Heat Caps?! Check out my Etsy store for the lastest collections.) This is the only product from Bouclème which contains protein with the plant-based keratin, wheat bran. I feel like this will work really well on tighter, kinky-coily hair textures. Buy it here £26/€30/$36 for 250ml

I’ve subscribed … and already liked the ig pages . Let’s hope i win
Done!!! So glad i found your blog z
All done.
Fingers crossed! Would love to try some new products from Boucleme
Subscribed and followed both!
Great review thanks! I’m 4mths into my GCM journey & in need of some new products! 🙂 orla
I already follow you both and have been subscribed to your blog for about a couple months!!!! Love everything you write about!! I love the rise water treatment and I even cut my hair short with u as my inspiration! I keep looking to see what you do to handle your frizz that’s my biggest problem, but I love you keep doing what you do and thank u for everything u post
Great post and giveaway – subscribed and followed! I’m new to my curly journey and have just started using the curl defining gel and curl cream and love them so far. I’m excited to try more of the range!
Would really love to try their curl towel, t-shirts don’t do it for me and drying takes ages with no help!
Love this post!! I’ve been wanting to try this brand for sooo long- I definitely have my eye on the curl defining gel! Subscribed and followed, so excited for this competition! Xxx
Great review !! I’ve only used the cleansers and conditioner so far so really interested about the other products ! Also…100% agree about Space NK prices
Great post and giveaway. Subscribed and followed
Followed and subscribed! Fingers crossed!
Sounds amazing, I’ve tried some of their sample sizes & really liked them. But completely agree about them needing to launch a Foam….I keep going back to my Paul Mitchell Sculpting Foam for its extra hold…
Great post! I haven’t tried Boucleme, heard lots of fab things about it. After reading your review I’ll be ordering soon! Subscribed & following x
Was already following on insta but have subscribed now!
Hi I love the sound of all of the products, but it’s the gel I’m thinking of buying first. My hair is pretty thick and kinda coarse-do you think this gel will be Ok? I’m using fsg then eco gel for hold atm.
Done! A really helpful review. So far I have just tried the gel and love it. Would’ve really interested in you doing a compare between these and trepadora products as they are a similar price point!
Excellent review! I currently use the gel and have been considering trying other products but I was unsure what would suit! After reading your post I think I will try the cream and see how I get on. Also very interested re your thoughts on the towel as I was considering picking up at the weekend but though maybe a bit expensive but sounds like it’s worth the price afterall!
Subscribed and followed.
I love the curl cream but, like you, I think less is more. I only use one pump for shiny, bouncy curls. I think it has potential to be one of my ‘holy grails’; I can’t wait to try the other products in their range.
Shame is not opened to the Netherlands! I would love to try these products as well, since I struggle with similar issues as you do. I’ll be travelling to the UK this summer. Any tips on where to buy? Or should I find them online?
Sorry Yara! You can still buy it off their website and get the 10% discount using my code, or you can buy it online on places like Look Fantastic – my affiliate link for them is in the sidebar/scroll down below.
Thanks Gabriella! This is a fab giveaway I have subscribed and followed. I love the idea of Boucleme; a cruelty free, British brand! I’ve been CG for a while but still on the hunt for my HG products! x
I received a travel sized sample of Boucleme defining gel in my Curls Allowed box. The scent is gorgeous. I’m going to try your method of combining it with lube. I currently use both products but not at the same time so will be doing this tomorrow. Followed both yourself & Boucleme on Instagram and subscribed!
Helpful review… Thank you. Would love to try these products! Have subscribed and followed ☺️
Followed instructions…would loe to try these products as ive only ever heard good things! X
I’ve loved the 2 boucleme products I’ve tried, I’d love to try others!
Yasss my favourite curly brand too, the smell is enough to put it topof my list. Still getting to grips with the curly girl method but your posts are fab, honest and real. Thank you for helping us curlies xxx
You’re welcome Jess, and thank you! xoxo
Hi
I am now following you and Boucleme on Instagram and subscribed,
I have only just discovered the world of curly girls and haven’t started my journey yet so any advice is very helpful. Would love to win.
I love this post/review. I’m one month in on my CG journey & your insta was my inspiration. The advice you offer on all your posts is so helpful for us newbies. I had by toe dipped in the boucleme world as it was in April’s Curly Girls Allowed box & it was love at first use, and oh boy, that smell, it’s divine. I’ll definitely be investing in others x
Aw thank you so much Lisa, that’s so sweet and I’m honoured to be a part of your curly girl journey. Yes, the Boucleme scent is amazing! I’d love a candle of it. xoxo
Fab review, I love the detail. I’ve subscribed and followed. Fingers crossed on a win. X
Thanks Jo, I was worried I’d made the post too long with all the details. So thank you! xoxo
Love love love boucleme!!!
Love the review love the products I have used really to, like reading how you describe them because I agree with so much especially the gel!
Thank you xx
Thank you Emma! xoxo
Nice review! Still looking for my holy grail of products – could these be it?
Big fan of Boucleme products! They were the first ones I tried on my curly journey just over 15 months ago. I keep coming back to them. Following u and Boucleme! ❤️
Thank you for reviewing Boucleme. I really struggled to decide which products to choose, as I’m a mum that doesn’t work- so every penny counts.
I’ve recently started my curly journey and I’m desperate to try something that would give softness and definition- something that I’m currently struggling with, using Tresemme conditioner and Tesco value gel!
I’m happy to see that I could purchase trial sizes, so I won’t feel like I’ve wasted my money if the range isn’t for me.
By the way- your rice protein rinse is the bomb!
Thank you Asha, yes the rice water treatment is the best DIY treatment I’ve discovered so far!
Keep hearing great things about this brand… beccadudley also recommended it on instagram. Love that it’s cruelty free and eco friendly. Going to have to try the whole range. Followed & subscribed 🙂
Very interesting. Unfortunately we don’t have many curl friendly products in Ireland so it’s definitely worth a try.
I absolutely love your posts and this review did not dissappoint! I was already subscribed and following you but added Boucleme to my instagram in the hope I may win the competition as I’ve been dying to try the towel for ages. I love the gel and curl cream already but find I need more hold for my weak 2b waves. A hard hold gel would be amazing, please make one Boucleme! And thanks for all the combo advice too, I will be trying the gel with the pamtene mousse next wash day x
Thanks so much for your sweet words Christine!
Wow what a great comprehensive review! I’ve been using the curl defining gel and love it but am not sure what to try next. I have the towel and love love love it, especially for after my plop when I scrunch in my stylers with it, I just love how it seems to give me great definition without any frizz. I’m already a subscriber and follower, thanks so much for the exciting opportunity. Roisin
Aw thank you so much Roisin! I love the Boucleme towel too, it doesn’t give any frizz at all, unlike the microfibre towels.
Great informative read and valued reviews. Subscribed , followed both
What a fab review! I switched my cosmetics and toiletries to cruelty free (and vegan where poss!) last year, and I’m always on the lookout for cruelty free, CG friendly products. So excited to try this range! (though my bank account may disagree…) x
Great article! Following
Great read. I use boucleme gel and I’m looking forward to trying more products
I love this range so much but unfortunately its a bit out of my price range, it’d make my day, my week, my year to win!
Followed both and signed up. Will give this Boucleme a try!
Brilliant review..Dying to try these products! Have finally begun my curly girl journey and am already seeing improvements in the condition of my curls. All steps completed. Fingers and toes crossed

I love that you’re Irish and have an Irish slant on things! Been dipping in and out of this site for a while now while following the cg method. It’s SOOO hard to find products readily available in Ireland that I really apprecappreciate it when I do! Now….I just need to decide what products I need the most right now!
Oh and I’ve done all of the following and would love a hair win!!
Aw thank you so much Lisa! I do almost all of my curly girl product shopping online. Have you checked out My Favourite Curly Girl Products post? You might find that helpful. Gabriella xoxo

Ooh these products sound right up my street! I love Deva products but can’t just pop over to the US so would love to give Boucleme a try. I’ve followed them on insta. Love your blogs so informative and easy to follow tips. Keep up the great work.
Lovely review! I’m new to the CG way, and this was one of the first brands I tried. I purchased the holiday size bottles, and so far am liking the results, and experimenting with different styling techniques. Of course, I have massive curl envy of all the ladies who have left their curls to develop and are well into their curl journeys! ➰➿ PS giveaway entered!!
What a brilliant giveaway, I’ve been loving your posts and tried the rice water rinse which worked so well!
Have been really wanting to try the boucleme gel and don’t have a hair towel either so this would be a fantastic prize! X
