Does your hair need an overnight treatment?
In the past, overnight beauty treatments have been focused on skincare. But why not our hair too? Let’s start treating our hair with as much love as our skin, and help improve its beauty and quality with an overnight treatment. Introducing the 8H Magic Night Serum for hair from the Nutritive collection by Kérastase.
A nourishing overnight serum for the hair
Just like our skin, hair suffers from aggressions throughout the day, and night-time offers a perfect opportunity for revitalization and nourishment. The Nutritive 8H Magic Night Serum is the hair care answer to a nighttime skincare ritual. Applied in one simple step just before bed, it intensely nourishes your hair whilst you sleep. The lightweight and non-greasy formula, containing iris root extract and a blend of 5 essential vitamins, leaves hair feeling lightweight and irresistibly soft to the touch. You’ll wake up with luxuriously nourished hair in the morning with no need to rinse it out! With its beautiful fragrance designed to develop whilst you sleep, this is the perfect addition to your nighttime beauty regime.
Hair protection at night?
While aggressors such as pollutants and harsh weather elements are reduced at night, there are other ways your hair can become damaged while you sleep. Tossing and turning during the night can cause friction and static leaving your hair frizzy in the morning and when you turn up the central heating to get that cozy feeling, your hair is more likely to become dry. This explains the origin of the word “bedhead”.
How to apply the 8H Magic Night Serum
The 8H Magic Night Serum can be adapted for all different hair types that have one concern in common: dryness.
Use 2 to 4 pumps, depending on the length and thickness of the hair. Apply on lengths and ends. For application on wet hair, towel-dry hair before applying. Style hair as desired overnight. Leave in. No rinse necessary. Reapply as needed on dry hair for an added boost of overnight nutrition.
- On fine dry hair, apply the serum to the lengths and ends to avoid weighing it down.
- For normal-to-dry hair, apply a few drops of serum throughout the hair.
- On thick and very dry hair, apply the serum through the hair, then focus application on the driest zones.
Pro Tip: The perfect complement to a Nutritive nourishing shower routine. To wake up with perfectly loose waves or defined curls, apply before braiding or pulling into a bun.
