Kerastase Aura Botanica Review
How This 1 Natural Luxury Hair Care Line Is Empowering Global Women

While the other three products mentioned are amazing, the Aura Botanica Concentré Essentiel serum ($58) is the star of the show.
It's a first-to-market concept: a hair serum that can be used as a treatment and also is natural enough to be applied on the body. The texture is a very concentrated hair oil, featuring avocado oil, jojoba oil, and the dynamic duo (coconut and argan). It has the same sweet orange essential oil fragrance as its sister products, with the addition of rosemary extract to preserve the oils.
You can use it as a preshampoo treatment by coating your strands, twisting them to make the formula penetrate deeper, and leaving on for 15 minutes before rinsing. As mentioned above, it can be cocktailed with the conditioner to make it more potent. And it can also be massaged onto hands or legs to nourish your skin! You can even drop a bit in a bath. The one thing I would avoid is putting it all over clean hair since it might weigh it down (that's what the light oil mist is for, instead!).
