Why our stylists rate it
From the Partners Hair team
Kérastase Elixir Ultime Le Masque is an oil-infused nourishing hair mask for dull hair seeking shine. Part of the Kérastase Elixir Ultime range. Intense restorative weekly treatment blended with five precious oils that delivers 48-hour fibre nutrition and 96-hour frizz control.

Best for: dull, dry, or sun-stressed hair seeking visible shine and weekly intensive nourishment; all hair types — used occasionally as a deep treatment for fine hair or as a regular treatment after shampoo for normal to coarse hair; the weekly intensive step in an Elixir Ultime routine paired with Le Bain and L'Huile Originale.
Less suited to: severely damaged hair primarily needing reconstruction (use Resistance Masque Force Architecte or Thérapiste); hair primarily concerned with density (use Densifique Masque Densité); colour-treated blonde hair (use Blond Absolu Cicaflash or Masque Ultra-Violet); curly hair seeking definition (use Curl Manifesto Masque).

Key actives:
- Marula Oil — Vitamins C and D, intense antioxidant nourishment for weightless shine
- Wild Camellia Oil (Camellia Oleifera) — smooths the hair fibre for unparalleled shine
- Argan Oil (Argania Spinosa) — restores strength and protects the hair fibre
- Corn Germ Oil (Zea Mays) — major nutritional and protection function
- Pracaxi Oil (Pentaclethra Macroloba) — intense shine and deep conditioning
- Vitamin E (Tocopherol) — antioxidant protection

Benefits:
- 8x shinier hair immediately after use (Kérastase instrumental test)
- 48-hour intense fibre nutrition (Kérastase claim)
- 96-hour smoothing and frizz control even in 80% humidity (Kérastase claim)
- Long-lasting 48-hour fragrant halo
- Improves detangling from roots to ends

How to use: Apply a quarter-sized amount to washed and towel-dried hair. Massage onto lengths and ends, paying close attention to the ends. Comb through for even distribution. Leave on for 5–10 minutes. Emulsify and rinse thoroughly. Use weekly, or as needed for deeper treatment. Cocktail with a pump of L'Huile Originale for an extra moisture and shine boost.
