From the Partners Hair team
Kérastase Aura Botanica Soin Fondamental is a 97% natural-origin lightweight nourishing conditioner for dull, devitalised hair. Part of the Kérastase Aura Botanica range — the brand's clean, natural-origin botanical line. Silicone-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free conditioner that melts instantly into hair for weightless nutrition and frizz control.

Best for: dull, dry, or devitalised hair seeking natural-origin daily nourishment without silicones; users who prefer clean-beauty formulations over synthetic conditioning agents; everyday conditioning in an Aura Botanica routine paired with Bain Micellaire shampoo and Concentré Essentiel oil.
Less suited to: severely damaged hair needing structural protein repair (use Resistance Ciment Anti-Usure or Fondant Extentioniste); coarse, very thick frizzy hair needing richer smoothing (use Discipline Masque Oléo-Relax for richer treatment); colour-treated blonde hair (use Blond Absolu Cicaflash); curly hair seeking definition and slip (use Curl Manifesto Fondant Conditioner).

Key actives (97% natural origin):
- Samoan Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera) — double hand-pressed virgin oil, certified organic; delivers nutrition, suppleness, shine, and strength
- Moroccan Argan Oil (Argania Spinosa) — hand-extracted from the Moroccan forest; nutrition and shine
- Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus Annuus) — lightweight emollient that softens
- Sweet Orange Essential Oil — signature Aura Botanica fragrance
- Vitamin E (Tocopherol) — antioxidant
- Free from silicones, parabens, and sulfates

Benefits:
- Lightweight texture instantly melts into hair, lighter than a mask but richer than a regular conditioner
- 48-hour deep, durable nutrition (Kérastase claim)
- Frizz control without weight or buildup
- Facilitates detangling
- Uncoated, natural-feeling finish with a healthy glow
- Silicone-free, paraben-free — suitable for users seeking clean haircare

How to use: After shampooing with Bain Micellaire, apply Soin Fondamental to wet hair, focusing on mid-lengths and ends. Leave on for up to 5 minutes for maximum benefit. Rinse thoroughly. For thicker hair, blend with Concentré Essentiel oil in a 1:10 ratio (1g Concentré = 2 pumps) before applying for boosted nutrition.

Format: 200ml conditioner.
