Kérastase Bain Satin 1 Shampoo and Nutritive Masquintense Reviews

Hello!
I recently received an order from Feel Unique containing a couple of Kérastase hair products that I had been eager to try out. It’s been a week since I tried out each of these products, and whilst I don’t use these items every day, as I don't wash my hair every day, I feel like I can comment on how I feel about them already. If my continued experience of these products changes I will add my later thoughts in this post, but if you don’t hear from me again it’s because I feel the same about the products as I did when posting this originally.

Something I find really odd about Kérastase products is that they don’t seem to have any instructions. I’m not saying a shampoo should necessarily have an instruction leaflet with them, it’s pretty obvious what you need to do, but especially with the Kérastase mask. I didn’t really know how long I needed to keep it on my hair for, and as the packaging didn't mention what to do, I just did what I felt was needed to get the best results.

Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Complete Nutrition Shampoo Review

The first item I want to review is the Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Complete Nutrition Shampoo (250ml). Now when it comes to shampoos I’ve always been the type of person to switch up my shampoo on a regular basis. My main shampoos are L’oreal Elvive, Pantene (any), Herbal Essences, Aussie products (all), and if all else fails then I have a bottle of Head & Shoulders, although I try and avoid using this as much as possible as it’s so harsh on my hair. But as you can see from the other types of shampoo I use, I tend to just get a standard price bottle and don’t really spend too much. This Kérastase shampoo is priced at £12.75, which is more than the usual bottles I get, and over time could amount to quite a lot, especially if you buy the conditioner as well. 

The first time I used the shampoo, I have to be honest and say I felt disappointed. I didn’t feel like it made any difference to my hair, and it dashed my high expectations quite quickly. Since that first use I have used it twice more, and I definitely feel a difference to my hair now. I have very thick, heavy hair, and I do believe that the first time I used this shampoo I used it sparingly, and so not all my hair had a good amount of shampoo. The second time I made sure I used more shampoo and gave my hair a good lather, and then I left the shampoo in for a few minutes so that it was absorbed by my hair, then washed it out thoroughly.

I don’t think I’ll be using Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Complete Nutrition Shampoo as my sole shampoo from now on. I’m too fickle to stick to just one shampoo! However, I think if you hair is in need of some repair, and if like me, you dye your hair a lot, or if you have dry hair, then this really will give it a bit of nourishment and make it feel healthier. This shampoo does seem to work over time too, so if you feel a little disappointed the first time you use it, give it a week or two and I’m sure you’ll feel a lot happier with it.

Kérastase Nutritive Masquintense Cheveux Epais Treatment for Dry Hair for Thick Hair Review

I bought the Kérastase Nutritive Masquintense Cheveux Epais Treatment for £20.62 from Feel Unique, and was so excited to try out this product. It’s been a long time since I used a hair mask, and having never tried any Kérastase products before, I had heard great things about their mask treatments. Well, I was certainly not disappointed as this mask let my hair feeling so soft and nourished, you would never know that I had suffered with dry hair as it now feels so silky soft! If you are looking for value for your money, then this product is definitely for you. I have only used a very small amount so far, and have very long hair, so I am definitely getting my money’s worth and this treatment really does work well.

To get the best results, and as the product has no real instructions on how to use it, I applied the mask to my hair after my shower in the morning, and by the afternoon I washed it out. I wanted to mask to really set into my hair and give me the best results possible, although you don’t have to do this at all, I’m sure a lot of people just leave it in for 5-10 minutes and then rinse it out. I will most likely use this product once a week, or every other week and I really do feel like it will keep my hair sleek and healthy. I can’t praise this product enough, and if you are looking for a way to turn your dry thick hair into glossy, healthy hair, then this is the product for you!
