Try some stuff from the CHI line. They have great products. And there is one called silk infusion, we use that a lot in cosmotology school. It will help minimize frizz, and keep your hair silky and shiny. Try not to use too much though, it will give a greasy look. But it doesnt take much at all......
They also have some specialized shampoo/conditioners that are for curly hair. CHI is some of the best stuff I have ever used... on clients and myself.
PS~ If you do decide to get something similar to the silk infusion, here's what you can do. Out of what you listed, the mousse is going to be the best. On damp hair, put a small amount of silk infusion in your hand, work through the bottom half, then from the roots down (to prevent using too much on the roots making that "grease" effect). Then its time for the mousse. When you are putting in the mousse, scrunch your hair. This is important so that the mousse will start your curls to form. Then as you are blow drying, same thing. Scrunch up your hair as you are hitting it with the blow dryer. It sounds complicated, but I promise you its not. And if you dont blow dry your hair, that is what the scrunching is for when you apply the mousse. And you can always end with a finishing spray. Its not hairspray, they are different. Good luck with it, and I am sure your hair will look great!

For products that are available in almost any store, I'm partial to Infusium or John Friese. If I don't use the proper conditioner and 'tamer' then my hair has a life of its own.
Don't overwash your hair. In between washes, just wet and condition your hair. Follow it up with a 'frizz control product'. Avoid blow dryers and other tools as they really damage curly hair as well as any product that says it will give your hair more body. More body is the last thing you need.
If money is of no object, then you can ask your hairdresser to recommend a professional product line but personally I've found that the only difference in the results is noticeable in my wallet.

The best!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.ouidad.com/ and it depends on the "type" of curl. Andre provides the following classifications which have become even more famous than him:
1. Straight hair
2. Wavy hair
A - Fine & Thin
B - Medium
C - Thick & Coarse
3. Curly hair
A - Loose loopy curls
B - More defined curls to very well defined curls (ringlets)
4. Kinky hair (Oprah's hair)
A - Tightly curly - S shape like Type 3
B - Wiry - Z pattern

Frizz Ease has a GREAT line of products. i too have wavy curly hair that can get pretty frizzy.. John Frieda created this line of shampoos, conditioners, mousses, sprays, serums, everything for styling straight and curly hair. Goodluck!

I like Fresh Curls by Redken. The shampoo, conditioner, leave-in cream and spray gel work great. They keep my natural curls softer than any other products I've tried with little frizz. Good luck!

if what you're using from pantene works, look furthur into it and see if there are more products. Pantene always has a follow up product for their previous stuff. Like say you're using pantene mousse, theirs a shampoo that if used will make your hair even curlier, etc.

V05 Curvaceous curls mousse, it's in a short red can
a little baby oil works VERY well on my hair(weird but it work)
Hair spray is a big NO NO it makes your hair break creating future frizz :(

I like John Freida's Frizz-Ease products. I use his relaxing cream, then cheap spray gel from Herbal Essence or Loreal, and have good results.

Well the pink cream like Luster's and now there are others who
do exactly the same job and leave my hair with no frizz and
soft and not a feeling of sticky gel.
