Best for shiny curls

Curl Junkie Curls in a Bottle gives my curls a lovely shine. It only has a very light hold, so I wouldn't use it on its own for frizz protection, but I mix it with whatever I'm using because it gives my curls such a pretty shine.

I apply usually it first then scrunch in something else like KCCC but I have to be careful with KCCC and use the tiniest amount, otherwise I get stringlets. I've also tried using it with mousse and that works too.
My hair just recovered from looking awful (thanks to good advice on this board to deep condition and a great haircut at Hair Rules) so I'm really happy with my curls for the first time in months.
I'm going to be trying it out with curl cremes and other concoctions! Finally having great hair days - but the dew point has been pretty low. I have to see what happens when the dews are killer.
What's new with you?

i've been using either curl rehab or deep fix as leave in, then adding aloe fix on top. however, with the dews dropping i've switched to pattern pusha.
not sealing every day, just once in awhile,using ss emollience, sometimes jc n&s.
i do use ciab from time to time, but i think my hair has a problem with the polyquat. altho, i probably use too much, that is why i asked how you use it. generally the first day i use i have fabulous hair, then it goes to good, ok...... limp. so i save it for bad hair days when i need to go out at night, it does work well on dry hair, too.
once we hit the fall i will switch to just a little honey butta or cccc with a bit of curl rehab.
