KÉRASTASE Première Discovery Set — Mini Repairing Pre-Shampoo, Strengthening Shampoo & Nourishing Mask (Travel Trio)

KÉRASTASE Première Discovery Set is a limited-edition trio that targets weakened, calcium-affected hair with a pre-shampoo treatment, strengthening shampoo and nourishing mask to hydrate, smooth and reduce breakage.

This compact collection brings together a targeted pre-shampoo, a cleansing-strengthening shampoo and an intensive mask designed for hair weakened by mineral buildup and mechanical damage. The formulas work in sequence: the pre-shampoo helps remove calcium residues, the shampoo deeply cleanses while rebuilding fiber integrity, and the mask delivers hydration and manageability. Each mini size is perfect for trialing the system, travel, or maintaining results between salon visits.

How does the pre-shampoo help hair affected by calcium buildup?

The pre-shampoo uses a citric acid-based complex formulated to dislodge mineral deposits that can stiffen and roughen hair fiber. Removing these residues primes the hair so the following products can better penetrate and repair. It’s a quick, in-shower step that enhances the performance of the full routine.

• Contains citric acid to help lift calcium and mineral film
• Applied before shampoo for improved cleansing action
• Five-minute leave-on step to prepare hair fiber
• Small travel-friendly size for occasional use

What benefits does the shampoo provide for weakened strands?

The shampoo is formulated to gently remove dirt and remaining buildup while supporting the hair’s internal structure. It balances effective cleansing with ingredients that help reconnect broken keratin links, reducing the risk of breakage during washing and styling. The result is hair that feels lighter, cleaner and easier to manage.

• Deep-clean action without over-stripping moisture
• Glycine-based support to reinforce keratin connections
• Improves softness and detangling after rinse
• Designed to be paired with the pre-shampoo and mask

How does the mask restore strength, shine and manageability?

The mask delivers concentrated hydration and weight-balanced conditioning to lengths and ends, smoothing the hair surface for greater reflectivity and less friction. Left on for a short period, it restores suppleness and helps maintain the structural improvements initiated by the earlier steps. Use after shampoo for a visible smoothing effect and improved resilience.

• Intense conditioning formula for mid-lengths to ends
• Short five-minute treatment for fast absorption
• Promotes smoother texture and increased shine
• Complements the pre-shampoo and shampoo for a system effect

How should I use the three-step routine for best results?

Start with the pre-shampoo in the shower, leave it on for the recommended five minutes, then shampoo and rinse. Apply the mask to towel-dried hair, distribute through lengths and ends, wait five minutes, and rinse fully. For ongoing improvement, use the full set as part of a regular haircare routine and reapply the pre-shampoo as needed when mineral buildup is suspected.

• Step 1: Pre-shampoo — apply, wait five minutes, rinse
• Step 2: Shampoo — lather, cleanse, rinse thoroughly
• Step 3: Mask — apply to towel-dried hair, leave five minutes, rinse
• Use consistently for cumulative strengthening effects

Who is this for: This KÉRASTASE Première Discovery Set is ideal for anyone with weakened, frizz-prone or chemically/stylistically stressed hair who suspects mineral buildup or wants a travel-sized way to trial the complete repair system. It suits all hair types needing targeted removal of residues, improved manageability and a regimen-focused approach to reducing breakage without heavy buildup.
