Elixir Ultime Reviews

This is hair treatment that can be used in multiple ways - applying on wet or dry hair, before or after styling. It has an oil blend that includes Maize Oil, Pracaxi Oil, Camellia Oil, Argan Oil . It comes in a big 100ml pump bottle.

I need just one pump for my shoulder-length hair that is coarse and naturally frizzy. The oil is not too greasy or heavy. It makes my hair feel nourished, less dry and frizzy. I like applying it before blow-drying and I also use it to add shine between shampoos.

This is a very good hair oil. My only criticism is that I'm not too keen on the scent - it has a sweet vanilla scent. It's a bit pricey but since you only use 1 or 2 pumps, it's going to last a long time.

I'm a long time fan of the brand Kerastase and I use their shampoos and conditioners whenever I dye my hair and during winter. Recently I have tried the Elixir Ultime L'Huile Originale treatment oil and it is incredible. The oil has a very subtle scent which I love and I apply a pump of the oil on the ends of clean damp hair. The oil sinks into my hair without making my hair feeling sticky or tacky. Instead, my hair becomes silky smooth with healthy shine which lasted for days. When I straighten my hair I apply a pump of the oil on the ends of my hair and it doesn't make my hair feel greasy at all but keeps it shine. This hair treatment oil is one product that I can rely on all year round.

Kérastase Paris Elixir Ultime was used by my hairdresser and loved the way my hair felt afterwards. It is on the pricey side but with minimal use, has lasted for a very long time.
I only used this product after I washed my hair and applied a small amount in my palm rubbing it between my hands, applying it only down my ends.
I then blow dried my hair as usual. I would also, if I thought my hair will frizz I applied a tiny tiny amount over my hair very lightly before heading out.
The fragrance is mild, not my favourite but it's okay.

This product was recommended to me several years back by my hairdresser. Even though it’s a bit on the pricey side I gave in and bought a bottle and have not looked back.

My hair has a slight curl but is very coarse and thick. This oil is the perfect thing to run through my hair in the first week after washing it to help tame the strays and give it some shape without weighing it down

Pros
Lightweight
Easy to apply
Beautiful bottle
Gorgeous scent

Cons
Price. All the kerastase items come at a cost but they are well worth it

What a versatile hair oil! While it's a little pricey, the fact that it has at least 5 different uses definitely makes it worth it.

I received this in a little spray bottle, which is so handy! I did expect the bottle to be glass however, considering the cost.

This is a volume beautifying oil mist, which adds volume, shine, healthy oils and vitamins and control for flyaways. Easy to use either before or after showering, on wet or dry hair.

The only thing I noticed was a bit of build up after a few days using it, so regular washing is a must.

I purchased the Kerastase Paris Ultime Elixir using my Beautyheaven points on a previous Beautorium event. It was my first time using a Kerastase product and I had high hopes for this to help restore my dry ends. My hair is fine and I was a bit concerned that this would weigh down my hair and make it look greasy and oily but I was pleasantly surprised!

I have used this two ways, firstly applied to freshly washed hair, I would squirt two pumps in the palm of my hand, gently massage to distribute into the mid lengths and ends of my hair. It does help somewhat to detangle the knots in my hair which is a bonus.

After blow drying my hair, my hair looks so glossy, shiny and healthy, I love it!
The other way I use this is as a hair serum on dry hair. In this instance I would use only one pump and only apply this to the ends of my hair to help with fly ways and frizz.

The pump packaging works perfectly and I like the subtle fragrance of the hair Elixir, it's so easy to use. So far, the bottle has lasted me well over 4 months and I still have oodles left to go. A little goes a long way, you only need a tiny bit, so it's well worth the money.
I don't mind paying that bit extra if the product works and I think this is worth every cent.

Thanks so much Beautyheaven! If it wasn't for Beautorium, I would have never had the opportunity to try this.

I love this oil for giving my hair a bit of extra shine and reducing frizz. The result of using this in my hair just makes my hair feel smoother and easier to manage between washes.

I've noticed that a few other reviewers mention that this leaves their hair looking dirty or oily and I don't understand how. I have oily roots, long thick hair and dry, very damaged ends. I use two pumps of this oil/serum, rub it between my hands and smooth it over the lengths of towel dried or just blow dried hair and have never had an issue. I definitely do not apply it to my roots because there's simply no need to.

The fragrance is a bit strong, but dissipates quickly once applied to your hair. The packaging is a plastic bottle with a very convenient pump dispenser that stops you from using more than you need -unless you have seriously thick hair, one pump will definitely be enough.

This is a pricey product - as with anything Kerastase branded- but a little goes a very long way. I find a full sized bottle lasts me a year. I have just finished my second full bottle of this and will continue to purchase this magic hair oil.

I purchsed this at a local hair salon (not my usual one as I go to a hairdresser who works from home so doesn't sell products). I had been experiencing damaged ends from bleaching so she recommended this as a treatment. It was more expensive than I'd hoped but purchased it anyway as she was quite convincing. I didn't get the results I expected as far as my damaged ends go and as the formula is quite oily, it makes my hair look dirty even when freshly washed. I find that when pumping it onto my hands to run it through my hair, it even leaves the oily residue on my hands.

I may try it before washing to treat my hair, to see if this helps the ends without the oiliness, I want to use the product as it was expensive but wont purchase again.

It is overall a good product but i find this serum too heavy for every day use on my fine and thin hair. However I like to use it after heat curling my hair, only t the hair ends. It makes it less frizzy.
