Can haircare really be anti-ageing? Our beauty editors put this new range to the test

Can haircare really be anti-ageing

Most of the time, when we talk about anti-aging we talk about skin. But hair, which is just as likely to be damaged by time, is often ignored. Now is a good time to think about how we take care of our hair because beauty science has come a long way and the beauty industry is more focused on the needs of women in their 40s and 50s. A lot of things can affect the health of your hair in midlife, including natural aging hormonal changes, stressful events, and sudden changes in your life. These things can affect the thickness texture volume, and overall vitality of your hair.

That’s why Kérastase came out with the Chronologiste line. This line of hair care products promises to make your hair last longer and revive tired strands. It works for all hair types that want to look younger and is full of skincare inspired ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ProXylane. This system has everything you need for shinier, healthier hair right now and in the future: a shampoo, a mask, an overnight serum and perfume-in-oil.

Four beauty experts talk about what really happens to hair in middle age when you use Kérastase Chronologiste line. Each expert focuses on a different product from the line.

Kérastase Chronologiste Revitalizing Shampoo—Becky Donaldson, Lifestyle Director Media Image SHOP NOW

I’ve always known how important it is to have healthy-looking hair, but I’ve never taken as much care of it as I have in my 40s. Regular haircuts keep the ends from getting dry or frizzy, and a consistent routine helps it stay shiny and reach its full voluminous potential, even when things outside are working against us (let’s not even talk about the weather).

I put the Chronologiste shampoo to the test because I’m always looking for ways to make things more interesting. The silky texture made my hair feel so smooth that I really wondered if I needed to use the mask after it. After I took a shower, my brush went through my hair without any problems, which is something that almost never happens to my hair, which is always a little bit tangled.

  • The first step of the Chronologiste regime smooths the hair, which gets it ready for the rest of the process.
  • Removes dirt and other impurities with ingredients that fight signs of aging hair and scalp.
  • Apply to wet hair and then rinse it out.

Kérastase Chronologiste Revitalising Mask—Cassie Steer, Head of Beauty Media Image SHOP NOW

As a beauty editor, hair longevity is a big deal, and I’m finally seeing the benefits of this in real life. The Chronologiste line which has ingredients that are good for skin and hair, has really helped my hair.

I’ve always liked hair masks and I’ve been a fan of Kérastase products for a long time because my hair needs a little extra care. But since it’s gotten more rebellious during perimenopause, I’ve had to raise the bar. The new Chronologiste mask is my new best friend. It nourishes my hair deeply, calms it down, and makes it noticeably swishier.

  • Contains skincare inspired ingredients that are carefully chosen to make the hair fiber stronger and last longer.
  • Makes strands feel very hydrated and noticeably swishier.
  • After shampooing, put it on your roots and ends and leave it on for at least five minutes before washing it out.

The Kérastase Chronologiste line is carefully made to deal with the main signs of aging hair, like dryness, brittleness, loss of shine, and frizz. This overnight serum is a lifesaver that helps restore softness and strength without weighing down the hair. It has ProXylane, which fights aging and Ochrophyta Algae, which helps the hair grow back. It has noticeably cut down on the frizz that usually happens when I sleep, and when I used it with the oil through the lengths, it gave my hair a smooth healthy look without being too heavy.

AT A GLANCE

  • A mix of anti aging ingredients that will make your hair stronger while you sleep
  • Restores softness and strength without putting too much weight on the strands.
  • Before bed brush through your hair that is dry or wet.

Jess Callan, Editor Media Image, says to buy Kérastase Chronologiste Hair Oil right away.

The Kérastase Chronologiste is the perfect fit for me. The youth revitalizing hair care line is perfect for people like us who have had hair changes as we’ve gotten older. It works on all hair types and is meant to be a part of your daily routine.

The perfume infused hair oil is my hair hero item. It has a light formula with tea rose, light woods, and musk in it. It feels so good on my hair, giving it the moisture and softness it needs. I only put one drop on the ends of my hair after I blow-dried it. This anti-aging product feels luxurious and contains myrrh. It comes in a very fine glass bottle that can be refilled.

AT A GLANCE

  • A rich formula that makes hair softer and more hydrated.
  • Works well with just one drop to give a bright finish
  • Put it on the ends of your hair after you blow dry or style it with heat.
