Understanding Why Hair Oil Matters:
Hair oil isn’t just for shine; it can nourish, protect, smooth frizz and even act as a heat protectant. But not all hair oils do the same thing. That’s why we’re breaking down the difference between Elixir Ultime and Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops so you know exactly which one your hair needs.

How To Choose Your Hair Oil:
- Choose Elixir Ultime if you want an all-in-one oil for nourishment, frizz control and heat protectant.
- Choose Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops if you want an instant mirror-like shine and frizz-smoothing.
Nicole Pro Tip: If you have thin/fine hair, you may not be able to use the Elixir Ultime every day because it may weigh your hair down. But you can use it for an oil treatment before you shower. If you have medium-to-thick hair, you can layer them: Elixir on wet hair before you style and Glaze Drops for that glossy finishing touch!
