The product has protective properties, eliminates dryness and reduces the risk of dandruff. It also acts as an antioxidant, prolongs youth and reduces sensitivity.

Great product. I have been using it for almost a month and the hair loss has decreased, and my hair is not as oily (I have oily roots but dry ends). I wash my hair every other day, just like before, but on the second or even third day, my hair looks well-groomed and maintains its volume.
I received this serum as a gift in sample sizes. The scent is really cool, I'm impressed. It doesn't make my hair greasy, on the contrary, my hair feels silky and fresh with this serum. I am satisfied with the product and will definitely order the full-sized version.
I received samples as a gift! The scent is great - it gives off an expensive vibe and instantly reminds me of a confident woman with well-groomed hair. It blends perfectly with perfume or eau de toilette. There is no mixing of scents!
I have oily roots and wash my hair every other day, but after using this serum, they didn't become even greasier, which I was afraid of! I liked it, and I will keep an eye out for the promotion so that I can place an order.
I received the serum as a gift and was very pleased. I immediately felt the moisturizing effect on my scalp. The consistency is thick and easy to apply. The scent is an additional source of satisfaction with this product. I will definitely buy it again.
This serum is amazing, I have been using this brand for 4 years now. I have problematic scalp skin, and although this product doesn't treat seborrhea, don't expect it to, it is not a medicated line after all, it does a great job at relieving itching and redness. The scent is simply fantastic, expensive and rich, I'm in love with it. Very convenient to apply. Highly recommend.
I will update my review, which I wrote on November 10, 2022.
This serum works wonders for hair and scalp. It is easy to apply. I generally adore all Kerastase products.
However, I was disappointed with its scent. At first, I didn't like the smell. I prefer sweeter scents, but this one is more like men's cologne. But then, it seemed interesting to me, almost like a unisex fragrance. Some people might find it very pleasant. And I'll tell you more – with this serum, you don't even need perfume. This is actually my problem.
I feel this heavy scent so strongly throughout the day that it starts to give me a headache. That's why it didn't work out for me with this serum.
I don't recommend it to those who don't like unisex scents, heavy fragrances, etc.
The scalp, just like the facial skin, needs moisturization and care. I am completely satisfied with this product in every aspect: its texture, effect, and scent (by the way, even at night, I can still feel the subtlety of its pleasant aroma).
The product is interesting and effective. However, the smell is something strange to me. I prefer sweeter scents, but this one is not sweet at all. It is rather heavy. It reminds me of unisex perfumes, both masculine and feminine evening fragrances. If you expect the serum to smell delicious, then it doesn't. But the smell is a matter of personal preference. For example, I don't like the Molecule and Bacarrat perfumes. That's why everyone has different tastes and preferences.
Not bad, but you should understand that this is not medicinal cosmetics, it will not solve your problems! If the condition of your scalp does not have seborrhea, dermatitis, eczema... it will be good for maintaining skin balance and softening, but nothing more. Keep this in mind!
I treated myself to a birthday gift and bought the entire line. However, I will write my first review specifically about the serum. It is an incredible product for me!
I have seborrheic dermatitis which has worsened over the past five years due to hormonal issues. This product relieves the irritation, although not immediately noticeable, with consistent use. I wash my hair every other day, rarely every two days. So after each hair wash, I apply this product. It reduces redness, inflammation, and itching. During hot weather, my condition often exacerbates, but not with this product.
Consequently, where the dermatitis occurs, the skin recovers and the hair grows back.
It also works well with the clay shampoo from the same series.
The fragrance is unisex, similar to niche Hermes perfumes. Of course, it may not be for everyone, but I like it. If the head sweats, the scent is noticeable. So if someone has an issue with scalp odor (and there are those with smelly heads, sorry), this serum will be a huge plus for them.
Definitely an excellent rating. I will continue to purchase it in the future.
The serum is great, but the scent is very strong and sharp, making it hard to get used to. It's really not recommended to use perfume with it, as it will create an even stronger and mixed scent.
I received a 30ml miniature of this serum for testing. The scent is absolutely amazing, just like the entire Specifique line, and I really love it. It stays on my hair until the next wash. The bottle is made of glass. The serum absorbs quickly and doesn't make the hair greasy. It slightly prolongs the freshness of the hair and actually adds a little volume. There are a few major downsides, though: denatured alcohol is listed as the second ingredient. I highly doubt that people with problematic scalp skin will appreciate this. Also, personally, I find it inconvenient to use the dropper. It's difficult to draw the necessary amount up to the mark (either too much or too little). Moreover, hair falls out while massaging it into the scalp. And I also need to get used to applying it every day. I deducted stars for the alcohol being the second ingredient and the inconvenience of use, specifically for me.
The smell is excellent! I really like it!
I started using it not long ago, so it's too early to say anything about hair growth enhancement.
But one thing I can definitely say is that I haven't had dandruff this winter. And, by the way, my hair is less static.
I was not expecting to like this serum so much. For my dry and sensitive scalp, it has the same effect as a very good moisturizing face mask. I feel refreshed all day long. It gets rid of tightness and dryness. When applied, it gives a slight cooling sensation, so it will be especially pleasant to use in the summer. My hair looks more vibrant. It has more shine and volume. The serum is thick and gel-like, but it does not make my hair sticky or greasy. It absorbs well and has an exceptionally pleasant scent. The only thing is that I needed 3 pipettes for my entire head. I had to apply more.
After giving birth, the skin on my face and head became very dry. Plus, I recently had COVID. It was a double whammy. Even an extremely dry area, which caused discomfort, was soothed by this serum. It significantly reduced dryness and itching.
Applying it is very easy and convenient. The design is fantastic.
It doesn't leave my hair greasy afterwards, which is important.
The scent deserves a separate mention - it smells incredible. This is a huge plus for a stay-at-home mom.
I have been testing the POTENTIALISTE serum for almost 3 weeks now, using it daily. The effect was noticeable from the first days. After wearing a hat, my scalp was not in the best condition, but after using the serum, the itching subsided, my skin became moisturized, and I felt more comfortable. It is easy to apply and convenient to use thanks to the pipette. It is also economical, as 2-3 pipettes are enough for my whole scalp. The gel-like texture is pleasant. I must mention the amazing scent of the serum, which lingers on the hair for a long time. I definitely recommend the gel serum.
Magic for sensitive scalp. I use Dermocalm shampoo and Blonde Absolute mask/conditioner for blondes in my hair care routine. But this serum works wonders on the skin. It especially saved me after coloring, when my skin was restless for a week and had a slight itch. And most importantly, it doesn't weigh down the roots. I highly recommend it for those who are concerned about their scalp.
Three weeks ago, I was troubled by dryness and tightness, itching, and dandruff, so this product came at the perfect time. After just one week of using the serum, my hair miraculously started to fall out less, became thicker, and more manageable. It gained volume. My scalp became moisturized and nourished, and the dandruff disappeared. I am thrilled.
I would like to share my impressions after using this product for three weeks.
This product is suitable for dry scalp, as it provides immediate softening upon application. It has a super beautiful scent and a light, gel-like texture.
I received this serum for testing and I was amazed. I will definitely purchase this product again. It is very convenient to use with the dropper. I noticed the effect after a week of use - my hair doesn't get greasy, my scalp feels moisturized, and the scent is amazing. If there was a perfume with the same scent, I would definitely buy it. Thank you Kerastase for this amazing product!
Kerastase never ceases to amaze! I received this serum for testing and I am very satisfied! Firstly, the packaging is convenient - the product is applied directly to the scalp with a pipette (no need for an additional sponge or to get your hands dirty, which reduces unnecessary waste). Secondly, the serum does not affect the frequency of hair washing (I thought I would have to wash my hair every day) and it does not cause dandruff. Thirdly, the result is amazing - no more itchy scalp (which I used to have from shampoo), my hair has become obedient and "alive", and as an additional bonus - the smell is fantastic! I am extremely pleased with this serum!
I have been using this serum for 1.5 weeks. It does not make my hair oily at all (which was my main concern), and I feel less dryness on my scalp after washing when using the serum. It is very convenient to distribute the serum with the applicator. The scent is amazing, I love it! People I know ask me what perfume I am wearing. My hair reaches below my shoulders, it is not dyed, and tends to get greasy. I am satisfied with this serum!
This product provides excellent moisturization, soothing effects on the scalp, and prevents the occurrence of dandruff. It eliminates any feeling of tightness on the scalp and is easy to apply. As a bonus, it has a pleasant fragrance.
Interesting new product from Kerastase. It provides noticeable comfort and hydration to the scalp. Hair stays fresher for longer, and as a bonus, the serum adds root volume to the hair. I recommend it as an additional care product.
I am using an interesting new product for scalp care called Potentialiste. The serum is applied with a convenient applicator. Since I have thick hair, three drops are enough to distribute it evenly on my scalp. The product has a pleasant scent, reminiscent of natural and healing aromas, which I really like. The sensation of the serum upon application is neutral. It has a consistency similar to a medium-thick gel, neither too dense nor too liquid, and it applies optimally. After applying, I gently massage it into my scalp with my fingertips. It does not make my hair greasy and provides a comfortable feeling for the scalp, without causing dryness. I highly recommend trying this additional scalp care product.
I have oily scalp. I was afraid of making it worse and having dirty-looking hair. BUT! My hair stays fresh even longer after using this product!
The serum itself is quite thick, I apply it after blow-drying and massage my scalp a little.
But the best part is the scent, it's just pure love))
I received this serum in a 30ml size. This size is sufficient for a week-long course. The serum has a pleasant perfumed scent. I followed the instructions: I applied it every day to dry scalp, making small partings. After a week of use, I noticed that my scalp started to get less dirty and the itchiness and irritation went away. I recommend this product if you have problems with itchiness, dandruff, or if you simply want to improve the condition of your scalp.
I really like Kerastase brand products. Thank you for the opportunity to test the serum. It is fantastic, from the packaging to the scent!
I have dry hair and a dry scalp. I wash them every 5-7 days. And often after washing, I feel tightness and even itching. It's been a week now since I started using this serum, and I couldn't be happier. I guess I found my solution! My skin feels like it can breathe, and my hair at the roots has come alive, becoming more nourished, denser, and more resilient. Volume and shine have appeared as well. The sensations are very pleasant, with a fresh feeling and no itching. I didn't even expect this serum to solve my problem and eliminate the constant discomfort so quickly. I'm especially thrilled with the scent - it's amazing, reminiscent of the smell of expensive perfume and, moreover, quite long-lasting (I can still smell it at the end of the day).
Good day!
The universal scalp serum from Kérastase suited me perfectly. I have been dyeing my hair for a long time and I always lacked moisture, and dryness was a concern. This product solved these problems. It provides moisture, eliminates dryness, and reduces frizz. I can't even imagine how I lived without this serum before. I definitely recommend it! Kerastase, you are the best!
The glass packaging is beautiful and the dispenser is of high quality, making it very convenient to use. I have a tendency towards seborrhea and dandruff on my scalp, so I applied it to the cleanest hair possible and it left a pleasant feeling of moisture. The texture is not oily and it applies easily. It's a delight to treat myself with such a product, the scent is vibrant and fresh.
The serum is simply amazing, the scent is unreal and I really loved it.
This serum works wonders on the scalp. Previously, I had to wash my hair every other day, but with this product, I can easily go three days without washing and my scalp feels amazing. And if you also use the shampoo from this series and the shampoo foaming brush, your morning hair care routine will turn into a spa-like procedure because a huge plus of the Specifique line is its fragrance - fresh and invigorating, long-lasting but not overpowering.
I received a sample of the product for testing, and the fragrance is unparalleled. The initial impression is superb, and I will eagerly await the results as well as other new releases from my favorite brand, which I have been singing praises for tirelessly for the past 6 years!
This is simply amazing! Starting from the ritual of application, to the pleasure derived from the consistency and aroma...and I must also note that my skin has become more vibrant, the feeling of tightness has disappeared - because of winter, paints, and dry indoor air. I am very satisfied!
Thank you, Kerastase, for the gift and the wonderful opportunity to try out this new product! I have a sensitive scalp, so this product is exactly what I need. I will continue using it and will share my impressions after completing the course.
From what I can mention now, the packaging is beautiful, and the bottle and glass dropper deserve respect. The fresh floral scent of this serum is so amazing that I won't need any perfume anymore.
I needed this product earlier! How did I live without it? My scalp truly feels better. Dryness and pimples are gone, and comfort has returned! Thank you for such a wonderful product.
This serum is very easy to use and has a great scent. It effectively eliminates the feeling of dryness and prevents excessive greasiness in the hair.
This serum is excellent. After lightening my hair, my scalp became dry and tight, but thanks to this serum, the tightness disappeared. It doesn't make the hair greasy and has a very pleasant scent (smells like expensive perfume). Kerastase never fails to impress with their products.
I received a miniature today for testing, thank you so much. The volume is 30ml, which I believe is sufficient to feel the effect. I will test it and write about the results in a week, but I am already confident that I will like it. After trying out previous testers, I chose and bought full-sized products for myself - a strengthening shampoo for weakened hair, a blonde shampoo for my mom, and a heat protectant for my daughter. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to test your product.
I really liked this new product! It is very easy to apply, and it noticeably freshens and calms the scalp. It doesn't weigh down the hair at the roots. As always, the products from this brand are excellent. I highly recommend it!
Girls, I highly recommend it! My hair looks fresher and healthier. I use it every day. The texture is lightweight, and it's enough to apply 2-3 droppers and massage it into the scalp. I'm satisfied!
This serum has a luxurious and incredibly pleasant scent. The applicator for applying it to the scalp is convenient. The skin becomes hydrated, eliminating the feeling of tightness and discomfort. It soothes and has an antioxidant effect. I was extremely satisfied after using it. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
A great serum with a convenient dispenser. The scent is luxurious and simply incredible. My scalp feels "calmed" and I no longer have that tightness after blow-drying my hair. The consistency is not sticky and it moisturizes the hair at the roots. It gives me the feeling of having just had a spa treatment until the next wash. And a cool bonus is that it can be used as a brow care product too. :)
