Ultimate Le Bain Shampoo – 80ml
I totally love how beautiful and luxurious this bottle looks. There is no pump or dispenser and you got to be careful in taking the amount you require. Only very minimal quantity is required and you got to mix it with little water and create a lather and gently massage it onto your wet hair roots and scalp. lather your way and tie it with a hair tie and wash off after about 5-6 minutes in cold water. It deep cleanses your hair and scalp leaving it silky smooth and frizz free post wash. I don’t use it regularly. But once or twice a month or just before a special occasion I definitely wash using this.
Overall, a versatile nourishing oil shampoo that provides ultimate shine and hair nourishment.

L’Huile Original Hair Oil – 50ml
My most favorite product in this kit. Heat protection, softness and instant shine to the hair. Gives an anti-frizz effect for upto 96H as per the brand claim.
Multi-use oil may be applied the following ways:
- Pre-Cleanse: Apply to brushed hair and rinse out before applying shampoo to remove impurities
- Pre-Blow Dry: Apply to towel-dried hair and blow dry as normal for additional protection
- Finishing Oil: Work into the ends of the hair to control frizz, smooth and style
- Touch-up: Apply a drop to ends throughout the day for a touch of shine as needed.
For an even distribution of oil, you can apply Elixir Ultime hair oil to hands first. Pump your oil into the palm of your hand, rub hands together then run fingers like a comb through and down the lengths to spread evenly along the hair.
The success of hair oil depends on the application. For quick styling, take about 1-5 pumps depending on the length, texture, thickness and condition of the hair. The trick is to apply one pump at a time and distribute the oil evenly. Applying oil on wet hair means less shine, but there are other benefits, such as detangling and heat protection before blowdrying. On dry hair, the shine factor is higher and you will get better frizz, UV and pollution protection. For both benefits, apply 1-2 pumps to wet hair, and then finish with another 1-2 pumps evenly applied to dry hair.
Overall, an iconic hair oil for all hair types, re-invigorated with sacred marula oil.
- Creates super shiny hair.
- Revives the hair’s strength.
- Delivers optimal hair nourishment.
