Kérastase Elixir Ultime
Elixir Ultime L'Huile Originale is the Kérastase hair oil, and the one product we'd put in almost any client's bag. A few drops on damp or dry hair give shine and softness and take the edge off frizz, on most hair types. Buy the 75ml bottle, then the refill to top it up.

How to use Elixir Ultime +
On damp hair, use 1 to 2 pumps through mid-lengths and ends before blow-drying. On dry hair, use a little more on the ends to finish. Fine hair needs less than you think; thick hair can take 3 to 4 pumps.
Read our Elixir Ultime hair oil guide for the details, or compare other hair oils. For dry hair, it pairs well with Nutritive.

Is Kérastase Elixir Ultime good for all hair types?
Mostly, yes. Fine hair should use a small amount on the ends only. Thick, dry or frizzy hair can use more.
