Looking for a LI or serum

I've been using gel, and I hate the crunch. Does anyone have a product rec for a good LI or a serum with good soft hold that helps with getting the curls to clump?

Prefer CG products please.

So far so good. Tomorrow will be one week. I'm not terribly greasy or yucky, my hair is softer and my curls are better defined and "curlier". I think that's more from not combing. I've cut out...

I think my hair would take to plopping, it is a little short for it now. I'm going to try the t-shirt next time I wash and see how it does.

If not I'll stick to "pixie curl" drying.
