Obliphica

our products

amika products are like a good friend – straightforward, dependable, and fun to spend time with.

We are kind-of obsessed with this 'super-fruit' Sea Buckthorn Berry (also known as Obliphica), so we include it in every haircare and styling product. Sea Buckthorn contains over 190 biologically active compounds, including Vitamin C (15 times more than an orange), Vitamin A (three times more than a carrot), and Vitamin E.

It also has high concentrations of the rare Omega-7, making up 40% of the berry. Typically only found in fish oil, Omega-7 keeps free radicals at bay and promotes the production of collagen, a key building block for skin, hair and nails.

Share your thoughts with other customers

Customers say

Customers find the styling cream effective at defining natural curls and keeping them from being frizzy, with soft, beautiful results that last for days. The product has a lovely smell and provides good hold, with one customer noting it doesn't make hair feel oily. While some customers find it light enough for fine hair, others say it's too heavy, and opinions on value are mixed, with some finding it worth the money while others consider it an expensive subpar product.

Changed my life… no seriously.
5 out of 5 stars
Changed my life… no seriously.
I have weird hair to say the least. It’s very wavy with the occasional big curl. For the first 20 years of my life I brushed my hair which made it extremely frizzy and poofy which was hard to manage. So I straightened my hair everyday for like 10 years. Eventually I figured out that I needed to stop brushing my hair and just use a big comb and my fingers to run through it. That alone made my hair so much better , I never get tangles or knots or matting anymore. Then I met my best friend. She gave me a sample size of amika curl corps and it changed everything. My hair no longer is frizzy, I don’t brush it I just use a huge comb right out of the shower and then add my curl corps and let it air dry. I get compliments on my hair almost daily. Truly life changing. I went from spending an hour or more in my hair every day to less than 2 minutes and I look so much better with my natural hair. As for this bottle , as you can see the one on the left I bought December 2019 and I’m just now having to repurchase (to be ahead of the empty bottle) in late 2023. I’m not out yet but I don’t want to ever be out. lol mind you it lasted 4 years and that included a ton of it leaking out on an airplane and a couple of times I dropped it. If I hadn’t I bet it would have lasted even another year or 6 months. So little goes such a long way. I hope they didn’t change anything in the last 4 years. If they did, I’ll know and I’ll edit this review.

    I have fine, thin, permed hair, so this was a little too thick straight out of the bottle. I mixed in some water and it was perfect. I tested it alongside OUAI and JVN curl creams with the same parameters: wet hair, no other products, air dry. While the others came close, this one left my curls shinier and more well defined. It also had better second day results. I got my hair wet again, no wash, and styled without adding any product and it was nearly as good as the first day, even a little softer and bouncier. I also love the scent and the bottle design.

    This was the first time I bought this to try in place of Deva curl styling cream I’ve been using for 5 years. Amika is great! It has a light smell, doesn’t make your curls, crunchy, oily or heavy and allows your natural curls to have separation & definition. Definitely recommend.

    I've tried so many different products, but this is the one that works the best for my hair type. I have more wavy hair that's light and thin. This doesn't make my hair look greasy, like other salon products. There's also a decent, yet soft, hold, to keep the curls for a few days. I'm not the biggest fan of the smell, which to me, smells similar to baby powder, but it's not offensive enough to not use. I originally found this product at a salon, and then I never saw it again. So I'm glad I can order it here.

    I don’t write reviews normally, but I had to for this! It is probably the best curl enhancer I ever used! normally when I use one my hair still looks frizzy at the end of the day and the curls look droopy, but this held all day long and looked exactly like it did when I styled it in the morning I will definitely be buying this again

    I want to love it. But I'm not a fan of how hard it makes my hair! Feels like I took glue to my hair to hold the curls... Worked the first two times making my hair curly. Just tried for a third time and it didn't take at all. Now I have a head full of product that feels gross and crunchy and no curls

    Reviewed in Canada on March 31, 2022
    I love this product. I have wavy to curlyish hair and I’ve always had issues finding a good product to ease the frizz in my hair and hold the waves.

    This is my second bottle and I love it. I highly recommend it. I have thick hair and I only use a quarter size of it.

    I do find it a bit expensive. My first bottle did last awhile because I wasn’t using it daily but still
    Pricey.

    I highly recommend this! The scent is so nice too.!
