Philip Kingsley has four game-changing pre-shampoo treatments in their range, each targeting a different concern. With the knowledge that every head of hair is different and its needs can vary and evolve; pick and choose, mix and match and alternate these complementary treatments to combat dryness, damage and dullness and achieve the best hair yet. Designed to be applied to damp tresses prior to shampooing and left to absorb between five and twenty minutes, pre-shampoo treatments are targeted to deliver highly-active, supercharged ingredients with weightless results. Bond Builder Restructuring Treatment (£28) works beneath the surface of the hair to repair and reconnect broken bonds caused by everyday culprits, such as heat styling, colour-treating and chemical processing. Proven to make hair up to three times more resistant against damage, this reparative treatment leaves over-processed tresses stronger, helping to reduce snapping and splitting.
Elasticizer (£22) and Elasticizer Extreme Deep-Conditioning Treatments (£35) are both rich and deeply-conditioning. Elasticizer delivers a supercharged yet lightweight surge of hydration, elasticity and stretch (and in turn strength) to hair, rendering it more resilient to everyday stresses like brushing, heat and styling. Elasticizer Extreme is for tightly coiled curls or extremely porous strands, and encompasses the same nourishing actives as its original counterpart, but in greater doses, delivering the intense hydration that fragile strands crave.
Vitamin C Jelly Detoxifying Hair and Scalp Treatment (£28) this detoxifying treatment removes hard water minerals, pollution and product build-up on the hair shaft, which can leave locks dull, limp and heavy.

To continue to inspire fans of the range, Ellis Faas has asked none other than Paris-based Swedish makeup artist Maria Olsson to create a series of visuals. Maria let herself be inspired by the actual shades and textures that Ellis created, for instance the red on the lips in this first visual the brand has shared. This is not without reason, because Ellis Red was the product that introduced Maria to the brand. “It’s the textures, it’s the colour that really is like blood. It’s such a universal shade and should absolutely be recognised as the best red ever!” Available from ellisfaas.
