Key ingredients

• Hyaluronic acid – known for its hydrating properties and helps give the hair a more comfortable feel during the colouring process.
• Phyto-keratin – helps protect, restore, and strengthen the hair fibre, supports protein integrity from within, and contributes to a stronger-looking finish.
• Antioxidant molecule – helps control the speed of the colour reaction so the final shade appears more stable and fresh for longer.
• Shine Sealer – coats the hair fibre and helps create long-lasting mirror-like shine that reflects light more effectively.

Technology

• KER-HA Complex™ – an innovative colour-care complex that helps strengthen, seal, and protect the hair fibre from within. It supports precise colour deposition and a long-lasting, sophisticated result true to the chosen shade.
• Integrated Metal Protection – integrated protection against the negative effects of metals in water and the air. It helps neutralise metal particles, protect the hair fibre, and support even, radiant, and long-lasting colour.
