Why Asian Stylists Recommend It
Thick, dry Asian hair frizzes and dulls at the ends but sinks under heavy oils; a light hydrating finishing oil adds glassy shine and smooths coarse ends without the greasy flatness at the root.

Why we recommend it
Elixir Ultime is Kerastase's signature finishing oil — a lightweight hydrating serum that smooths frizz and adds a rich, glassy shine on thick or dry Asian hair without the grease that flattens straight hair. Warmed between the palms and pressed into the ends, it seals flyaways, softens coarse lengths, and doubles as light heat protection before styling. Though it feels luxurious, it is light enough to keep to the ends of medium-to-thick hair without sinking fine areas at the root. Start with a drop or two and build only if the ends still look dry. It finishes and protects rather than deeply repairs — a polish step, not a treatment mask.
