KÉRASTASE Gloss Absolu Bain Crème Refill Pouch 16.9 oz — Sulfate-Free Hydrating Shampoo with Hyaluronic Acid for Thick Frizzy Hair

This refill pouch provides the same hydra-illuminating creamy shampoo formulated for thick, frizz-prone hair, packaged to reduce plastic waste. Designed to be poured into your reusable KÉRASTASE bottle, it pairs moisture-retaining hyaluronic acid with glycolic acid and wild rose oil to cleanse, soften, and enhance gloss without sulfates. The formulation targets the hair fiber and scalp to leave strands bouncy, smooth, and scented with KÉRASTASE’s signature citrus-floral vanilla fragrance.

How does this refill keep thick, frizzy hair smooth without weighing it down?

The formula balances deep hydration with lightweight cleansing to avoid residue that can flatten hair. Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds moisture inside the hair fiber while the creamy foam lifts impurities from the scalp, leaving cuticles aligned for a smoother surface.

• Hyaluronic acid for internal moisture retention
• Glycolic acid to help active ingredients penetrate the fiber
• Creamy, high-foaming texture that rinses clean
• Sulfate-free surfactants that preserve hair structure

Will this refill improve shine and reduce frizz between washes?

The product is formulated to enhance surface reflectivity by smoothing cuticles and sealing moisture, which increases shine. Users can expect noticeable anti-frizz benefits that persist for several days depending on hair porosity and environmental humidity.

• Polishes the hair surface for amplified gloss
• Hydration that helps resist frizz for up to four days
• Scalp and fiber cleansing to remove dulling buildup
• Lightweight finish that preserves natural movement

How do I refill and use this pouch safely with my existing bottle?

Refilling is straightforward: ensure your original KÉRASTASE Bain Crème bottle is clean and dry, then pour the pouch contents carefully to avoid spills. After refilling, apply the shampoo to wet hair, massage to foam, and rinse thoroughly; follow with your preferred KÉRASTASE Gloss Absolu conditioner or mask for best results.

• Open pouch and pour into clean, dry bottle
• Use on wet hair, massage, then rinse
• Pair with Gloss Absolu conditioner or mask
• Keep pouch sealed and recycle according to local guidelines

Is this refill an eco-friendly choice compared with buying multiple bottles?

Yes—this pouch is designed to significantly reduce plastic consumption by using less material than multiple standard bottles. The concentrated refill concept lowers packaging waste while delivering the identical Gloss Absolu formula, fragrance, and performance.

• Uses approximately 82% less plastic than two 250 ml bottles
• Same salon-grade formulation as the original bottle product
• Smaller transport footprint supports lower environmental impact
• Refill system encourages reuse of the original dispenser

Who is this for: This KÉRASTASE Gloss Absolu Bain Crème Hydra-Illuminating refill pouch is aimed at people with thick, frizz-prone hair who want intense hydration without heaviness, plus those who prefer sustainable packaging choices. It suits anyone looking to preserve curl definition, enhance surface shine, and extend anti-frizz effects while using a sulfate-free shampoo that pairs with the full Gloss Absolu care range.
