Size: 2.5 oz / 74 ml
Scent: Subtle, refreshing Brightside
Good for: All hair types, especially fine hair that needs volume and lasting matte texture
Made in the US

Brightside's Textured Cream is the do-everything piece in your styling kit.

A proprietary blend of diatomaceous earth, kaolin and bentonite clay, and silica gives it volume, grit, and weightless hold with no stiff fixatives, finishing ultra-matte.

Use it on its own for lightweight, all-day texture, as a pre-style base to build volume under higher-hold products (a favorite move for thinner hair), or worked through dry hair as a second-day refresher that soaks up oil like a dry shampoo. Shea butter and sunflower oil keep it from feeling dry or chalky.

A single jar lasts most guys 2 to 3 months. Named GQ's pick for best lightweight styling.

THE BOTTOM LINE

All-day volume and gritty, matte texture from one lightweight jar, with the versatility to prestyle, texturize, or refresh day-old hair.

BUILT FOR

Fine, flat hair that needs volume and workable, matte texture without heavy product weighing it down or looking greasy.

Who This is For

This product is for you if:

  • You have fine or flat hair that needs volume
  • You want matte, gritty texture with no shine
  • You like a lightweight hold you can restyle through the day
  • You want a prestyle base to boost higher-hold products
  • You want a second-day refresher that absorbs oil
  • You're tired of stiff, crunchy styling products

Skip if: You want high hold with a wet or glossy finish. This is built for matte, flexible texture.

Benefits
  • Builds volume in fine, flat hair
  • Delivers matte, gritty texture with no shine
  • Absorbs excess oil for a clean finish
  • Holds all day while staying restyleable
  • Works as a prestyle base under stronger products
  • Refreshes day-old hair like a dry shampoo
The Henkey's Standard

Built with solid ingredients:

A three-clay blend of kaolin, bentonite, and diatomaceous earth plus silica does the texturizing work, while shea butter and sunflower seed oil keep it conditioned. No stiff synthetic fixatives.

Proven to perform:

The clays and silica absorb excess oil and add grip, building volume and matte texture that holds all day and stays restyleable. It layers as a prestyle base under higher-hold products and doubles as a dry-shampoo-style refresher on day-old hair.

Made to help men look sharp and feel confident:

Flat, oily-looking hair drags down your whole look. This adds body and a clean matte finish you can shape however you want, so your hair looks styled instead of styled-over.

How to Use

Apply a small amount to towel-dried hair. For extra volume, work it through damp hair and blow dry. Shape pieces from root to tip, and add more product for extra grit and texture. Used as a dry-shampoo alternate on day-old hair, apply very light amounts.

Ingredients

INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT:

Diatomaceous Earth

This naturally porous mineral is the secret to the matte, weightless texture. It absorbs excess oil and adds grip along the hair shaft, building volume and gritty definition that holds all day without the stiffness or heavy shine of traditional waxes and pomades.
