Huile Céleste is one of my new favorite essentials. The glamorous look with its shimmering golden glitter paired with an intoxicating aroma is a hit with everyone who gets their hands on it. For added care while in the sun, layer Huile Céleste on large sections of hair. Leave it down and beachy, toss it in a messy side knot, whatever you do, know your hair will be protected while looking glamorous and shiny.

Salt & minerals from beach water combined with sand causes split ends... on a windy day, it's almost guaranteed. Layering Aqua Seal plus a veil of Huile Céleste on hair (wet or dry) will create an ultimate shield of protection eliminating the 'wind burn' effect on hair. This combination is awesome for sailing, golfing, and even just driving. These products are a staple in my beach bag.

To keep your hair gorgeous during the hot summer season I recommend Huile Céleste. With its light texture and UVA and UVB filters, its a must-have for sun worshippers or for those who have active lifestyles.

IT WORKS SOOOOOOOO WELL!!!
“my hair had been falling out and breaking off due to long term hospitalization (6 months). And it was dry. I have Afro-latina hair, not tooo kinky, not too straight, but it can be dry, brittle and kinda thick. I was so afraid that this stuff would not help me. Its been 2 weeks and my hair has completely stopped falling out! it looks so thick and alive. I love it! Its great for my thick, unruly ethnic hair!”

Adds Strength and Rinses Clean
“I have very processed blond hair. When I don't use the highest quality products, it looks frizzy, dry and damaged and lacks shine. This shampoo is great because I feel it adds strength but doesn't coat my hair like other brands, specifically Pureology. Highly recommend this as your everyday shampoo if you hair isn't in ideal condition.”

Forgiveness in a bottle
“I have always loved Kerastase because it's about the only hair care line that does exactly what it says it's going to do, but Bain De Force is absolutely amazing!!! I am addicted to dying my hair way too often and when you add styling on top of that my hair had become soo damanged and even a little crunchy and honestly Bain De Force corrected that in what seems like a few short weeks. I tell everyone who complains of split ends this is that answer! ”

It's the only thing that helped!
“I recently purchased Bain De Force shampoo for weakened hair, and I am so glad I did! Before I started using Bain De Force, my hair was very brittle and prone to breakage, because I regularly use bleach on my hair. After using this shampoo for the past couple of weeks, my hair is starting to resemble healthy hair again, as opposed to cotton candy. No other shampoo can even come close to helping my hair this much!”

BAIN DE FORCE Shampoo
“I have been using Bain De Force Shampoo for 18 months. I cannot tell you how wonderful my hair behaves now! It used to be fly-away and act crazy...it is fine and highlighted every 3 to 4 months. My stylist noticed immediately and asked me what I was using. Her salon does not sell Kerastase but she is very familiar with the products & their results. I plan to be a life-long user! Thanks for saving my hair!”

No other product compares!
“I first tried this product a few years ago and would use it whenever my hair needed a boost. I love it so much that I now keep it around on a regular basis. It cleans and softens long hair without weighing it down or drying it out--claims other products make but none I have found that compare. Definitely a noticeable difference, even with the first use. It works wonders! ”

EXCELLENT
“I tried different kind of shampoo to protect my hair and none worked. Since I started using Kerastase Bain de Force shampoo my hair looks healthier and falls less. I have highlights and even though I get them done every 3 months they still damage my hair and make it more vulnerable to fall. I won't change this shampoo for anything. I think is worth paying the cost to mantain a healthy great looking hair.”

Bain de Force products
“My hair was very destroyed after bleaching and straightening.It was so bad, that I had to cut it to shoulder's length and there still was some damage.It was getting tangled so easily.
I bought the Bain de Force shampoo and conditioning a month ago and have being using it every other day since then.
My hair is not back to where it was before, and my hair doesn't get tangled up. I don't have to brush it constantly, or put it up in a pony tail, which has helped me to stop damaging it.Just for that, this is a product that is worth to buy. My hair has also started to recover some of its shines and I love the smell,and that a little squirt of the conditioner goes a long way. ”

Best shampoo!
“I have been using Bain de Force for over 4 years and this is the best shampoo I have ever used. Each time I stray away, I always come back to it and wonder why I continue to try other products.
Now on to the reasons why I love this shampoo:
1. It's creamy - feels like conditioner when putting it on but it does have a nice lather.
2. Non-stripping - after using this shampoo, my hair feels clean but not stripped.
3. A little goes a long way - although the price is off-putting for some, a 250 ml bottle of this lasts at least 4-6 months as you do not need to use a lot.
4. It's a great companion to all Kerastase shampoos -- I have a lot of other Kerastase shampoos but I have found that Bain de Force goes great with any of the conditioners. Even when I try out other brands of conditioners, I always start with the Bain de Force as it has never failed me.
Now my plea to Kerastase.
Would you please please bring back the economy sizes of this shampoo. I don't understand why it was only available for a limited time but it is so much better to have the bigger size and the pump is very convenient.
Anyhow, I hope someone finds this review helpful.”
