Kérastase Elixir Ultime L'Huile Originale is a lightweight, all-in-one hair oil for every hair type. A blend of argan, camellia and maize oils nourishes and smooths the cuticle — taming dullness and frizz for silky, luminous, touchable hair with a non-greasy finish.

Benefits
  • Luminous shine — adds a glassy glow without weighing hair down.
  • Frizz smoothed — seals the cuticle to tame flyaways all day.
  • Deep nourishment — argan and camellia oils soften dry, dull hair.
  • Lightweight and versatile — works on damp hair before styling or dry hair to finish.
How to use
  1. Warm 1–2 pumps between your palms (3–4 for thick hair).
  2. Work through mid-lengths and ends of damp or dry hair, avoiding the roots.
  3. Style as usual, or add a little to dry hair to finish.
Who it's for

Best for dry, dull or frizz-prone hair of any texture wanting shine and smoothness. See the best hair oil for dry hair, browse anti-frizz serums and oils, or explore the full Kérastase range.

Why our stylists rate it
From the Partners Hair team
Kérastase Elixir Ultime L'Huile Originale 30ml is a travel- and discovery-size of Kérastase's iconic nourishing shine hair oil. Part of the Kérastase Elixir Ultime range — the brand's universal multi-oil shine treatment. Same lightweight, multi-purpose oil as the 75ml refillable bottle, in a small format perfect for handbags, gym bags, travel, and gifting.

Best for: anyone who wants Kérastase's signature shine oil in a portable size; travellers, gym-goers, weekend trips, and on-the-go touch-ups; first-time Elixir Ultime users wanting to try before committing to the 75ml refillable; gifting and stocking-filler purchases; mid-day shine and frizz refresh anywhere.
Less suited to: regular daily home use (the 75ml refillable bottle is more economical — use Elixir Ultime L'Huile Originale 75ml Refillable or the 75ml Refill); heat-styling protection (use Discipline L'Huile Oléo-Relax for thick hair, Cicaplasme Thermique for blondes, or Chronologiste Thermique Régénérant); colour-specific care (use Chroma Absolu, Blond Absolu Cicagloss, or Cicaextreme for that purpose); damage-specific repair (use Première Huile Gloss Réparatrice for hard-water damage).

Key actives:
- Argan Oil (Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil) — deeply nourishing; rich in fatty acids and vitamin E
- Maize Germ Oil (Zea Mays) — lightweight nourishing oil
- Camellia Oil (Camellia Oleifera Seed Oil) — high-shine smoothing oil from the East-Asian beauty tradition
- Pracaxi Oil (Pentaclethra Macroloba Seed Oil) — Amazonian nourishing oil
- Marula Oil — nourishing African botanical oil
- Lightweight silicones — deliver glassy seal and high-gloss finish without weight

Benefits:
- Adds high-gloss shine and softness to any hair type
- Tames frizz and flyaways
- Lightweight, non-greasy finish
- Portable size — ideal for travel, gym, or handbag
- Provides a luxurious sensorial fragrance experience
- Same iconic formula as the full-size refillable bottle

How to use: Apply 1–2 drops to mid-lengths and ends of dry or damp hair. Smooth through with fingers. Do not rinse. Can be reapplied throughout the day for shine refresh.

Format: 30ml hair oil.
