Kerastase Elixir Ultime: Is it worth the hype?

Posted on January 8, 2013August 19, 2014 by renjianooj

Hi my wonderful sweethearts…..Huv are ya all?? hope all are doing absolutely fine….So, Today I am going to review a wonderful product which I equally love like my Berber Oil …..I bought this as part of my haul here…I have been using this product since 6+ months now….and I am absolutely in love with this wonderful product…So, I thought its the right time to review this KERASTASE ELIXIR ULTIME 

What does the company claim about Kerastase Elixir Ultime
Our first versatile beautifying treament enriched with a complex of four precious oils. Maize, Argan, Camellia and Pracaxi oils combine to create a luxurious Elixir for all hair types.

The alchemy of four precious oils to beautify hair A new legend is born, the secret of magnificent looking hair is revealed

  • With a few drops of Elixir Ultime hair feels silky and weightless, as if transformed.
  • Applied before cleansing, hair feels instantly nourished.
  • Applied before styling, hair feels incredibly supple and protected.


Oléo-Complexe Technology: A powerful combination of emollient and nourishing ingredients.

A blend of four precious oils inlcuding Argan, Cameillia, Maize and Pracaxi combine to create a luxurious Elixir suitable for all hair types.


1. Pracaxi Oil:

Originates from Amazonian regions. Celebrated for its rich conditioning properties.

2. Argan Oil:

Deriving from Morocco, it remains one of the rarest oils in the world. It is a prized oil famed for its nourishing benefits.

3. Maize Oil:
Extracted from corn germs from Central America. A Kérastase heritage oil used in our first ever masque.
 
4. Camellia Oil:
A luxurious and fragrant oil, extracted from camellia flowers traditionally from Central and Eastern Asia.

Packaging, Price & Where to Buy
Comes in a bottle with a pump dispenser, you can twist and lock the bottle when not in use…I bought mine from a UK website here for 34.50 GBP; Qty:125 ml; Shelf Life: 18 Months; Quite expensive in UK…
You can get it in India from Purplle for 2300 INR

Application Tips
  1. Before Shampoo
  • Use as a pre-cleanse product to prepare the hair.
  • Brush through the hair to remove any styling or daily residues.
  • Rub a couple of drops of Elixir Ultime in the palms of your hands.
  • Run through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair and leave on for a couple of minutes.
  • Emulsify with warm water and shampoo as normal.
    2. Before Blow Dry
  • Use as a leave-in conditioner for the times when hair needs advanced nourishment.
  • Apply evenly through the mid-lengths and ends.
  • Ideal for thick hair requiring intense nourishment.
    3. After Blow Dry
  • When applied to the lengths and ends of towel dried damp hair, Elixir Ultime can help to give a smoothing effect for shiny, easier to style hair.

My opinion about Kerastase Elixir Ultime
 
If you are a regular reader of my blog…You might now my love towards hair care products…I always take good care of my hair and I always manage to make them frizz free and good looking….I have been using Osmo berber Hair treatment with Argan oil for my hair:) I have reviewed it here….
 
I can say that Kerastase gives exactly the same result which my Osmo Berber oil gave….The consistency of Osmo Berber oil is a lil bit thicker than Kerastase Elixir Ultime..However both smells divine:) I love the smell of both:)
 
Kerastase Elixir Ultime is a golden Yellow liquid. The  texture is a lil bit  watery and it spreads easily across my hair. It has a sandal oriental scent. like a strong perfume-  but dries down to a very faint floral scent. It’s never overwhelming and it leaves  pretty smell
  all day long. It dries up quickly too!
 
i just use a pump, I use it once in a while whenever I feel I need some extra care for my hair:) I have thick, naturally straight long hair upto my waist. I don’t think Kerastase is doing something extra which my Osmo berber oil doesn’t do….hehe:/ I feel it to be working just like my Berber oil…Kerastase Serum can make your hair appear greasy if applied to the roots…So always take the minimum quantity, rub couple of drops onto the 
plam of your hand and now gently run through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair and leave on for a couple of minutes.My hair remians nourished and in control throughout the day…
 
However the price is too high…and I think I will stick onto Berber Oil itself as It is less expensive than Kerastase Elixir Ultime and both give the same results:)
Pros
  • easy to use
  • good packaging
  • effective on hair
  • makes hair soft, smooth and shiny
  • nourishes hair
  • lasts for ages
Cons
  • Expensive:(

    pls take this as constructive criticism.. really love your blog..
    all your face pics look like instagrams… face is very orangish..maybe camera settings or maybe light or ur foundation i dont know.. so that ES and lip colors look very garish.. u are so pretty so something wrong with the things i mentioned i am sure… but the product pics ex in this post look so bright and nice…
    what about posting ten or less good pics rather than 30 pictures for EOTDs? frankly.. it does not make a difference… in fact it will be great with less, nice pics..
    hope u dont mind..:) i said it cause i really like you and ur blog..
