Review: Kérastase Resistance Ciment Thermique Heat-Activated Reconstructor Milk

Hey Beauties!

Today I wanted to share my experience with this fairly new product of mine.


It is from Kérastase  and it's called Resistance Ciment Thermique Heat-Activated Reconstructor Milk  Level 1-4. It's leave-in heat protecting milk for damaged hair. I have to say my hair has been very damaged, pretty much, all the time. I don't know quite what it is, probably all the stress and unhealthy food. But I mostly blame it on hair color. So if you haven't colored your hair, don't do it-your hair will thank you :)

I bought this products because of the good reviews and because I wanted to try at least one product of this brand. I have to say these products are just-so-damn expensive. This is initially heat protect with sort of restorative abilities, which contains 125 ml for around 19 €.

The consistency of milk is pretty runny and it doesn't have any noticeable lumps or any texture to it. It's very smooth and white. The smell is- well -interesting. It's sort of like cucumber dipped in sugar. It has that fresh smell of cucumbers, but still sort of sweetness to it.

I have been using it for about 4 months. Not every week, sort of every other week. I like the final result that it gives to my hair. I use it after I clean and condition my hair, because it is a leave-in product. When I want to dry it with blow drier I use a VERY (literally a peas size is enough for pretty long hair, because it's spreads really well) small amount of it and massage it into my hair from the ends up. Of course concentrating on the ends mostly. Then I blow dry my hair. I have to say, the hair looks amazing after drying it. It looks very shiny, soft when you touch it and very light. It doesn't weight down the hair. I have also noticed that it makes my hair very straight. I mean, I have naturally straight hair, but when I use this, it looks like I used a flat iron. So I think it also helps to tame down the frizz.

To conclude this review - I really like the final effect that it gives to my hair. Which are shiny, smooth, straight hair, but I think that it is a bit too expensive. I think some other products may give me a similar effect for less money or at least more product for that money. I don't see any big change in my hair being healthier just because of that one product. I do love the fact that it is a heat protect and restorative product all in one and that it is a leave-in products. That way I can at least imagine it working for a bit longer time than a wash off hair mask.

Have you tried any of Kérastase products? What is your favorite heat protect product?

  1. Ko sem kupovala Kerastase sem se odločala med tem in Nectar Thermique. Slednjega sem izbrala ker je po ocenah na MUA boljši za suhe lase (moji so bolj suhi kot uničeni). Mi je pa res super :). Od drugih mi je pa všeč Tigijev Flat Iron Shine Spray, ki je že skoraj kot olje in naredi res lepe lase. Trenutno imam pa še Tigijev Blow Out, ki je pa kot lahek silikon/gel z mikro bleščicami in naredi lase res lesketajoče :) Jup, vem, da imam veliko toplotnih zaščit in jih tudi veliko uporabljam. Bolje preventiva, kot kurativa :)
    Super post!

    1. Ja jaz sploh dolgo nisem uporabljala toplotnih zaščit, pa sem ugotovila, da pomaga in še lepše lase naredi. Tigijevih izdelkov še nisem uporabljala, bom mogoče kdaj pogledala, zdaj ko si omenila. Nekako se nikoli ne morem odločiti pri njih-ful barv, imen, embalaž..hehe:)

  2. Če ne bi bil tako drag bi ga mogoče še sprobala, tako pa ne verjamem. Jst uporabljam kar Lorealov Studio Silk&Glos v roza plastični embalaži okoli 5,6 eurov stane v Mulleru in kljub skoraj vsakodnevnem ravnanju las imam hvala bogu lepe konice, je pa res da redno uporabljam tudi ranorazne kupljene ali pa doma pripravljene maske in so lepe konice lahko tudi posledica tega, kaj vem. Razdelim ga kar po vsej dolžini las (samo pri glavi pustim kakšne 4 cm, da se mi ne zmastijo lasje) in potem poravnam lase

    1. Oh srečnica:) jaz si sploh ne upam kaj dosti ravnat lase in podobno, ker bodo še bolj uničeni:) Pa ta Lorealov ti ne zlepi lase? Jaz sem imela vedno občutek pri njihovih izdelkih, da so nekako zlepljeno delovali moji lasje.

    2. Mogoče če ga nanesem na mokre lase mi vse skupaj deluje tko limasto (ampak samo na rokah :D ), če ga pa nanašam na suhe lase pa tudi na rokah ni nekega limastega občutka, lasje so pa gladki, brez štrlečih lask, tko da nisem opazila da jih zlepi :/
