shu uemura art of hair Color Lustre Shampoo for Color-Treated Hair, 10 fl oz — Sulfate-Free Hydrating Cleanse

Shu Uemura Art of Hair Color Lustre Shampoo is a sulfate-free cleanser designed to gently remove dirt while helping preserve the brightness and hydration of color-treated hair.

Made for color-treated hair, this 10 fl oz shampoo combines sake kasu and niacinamide to cleanse without stripping dye molecules and to add moisture and shine. The formula avoids SLS and SLES surfactants and parabens, offering a gentler wash that supports color retention when used alongside the full Color Lustre regimen. It’s aimed at hair that needs a balance of effective cleansing, hydration and visual vibrancy between salon visits.

How does this shampoo help preserve hair color?

The formula minimizes harsh surfactants that can lift color and includes ingredients which support the hair surface and pigment stability. Regular use helps maintain color depth and reduces visible fading compared with conventional sulfate shampoos.

• Uses a sulfate-free surfactant system to reduce pigment stripping
• Sake kasu supplies proteins and enzymes that help condition the fiber
• Niacinamide supports moisture balance, which can improve color appearance
• Optimized to complement the rest of the Color Lustre line for best results

What key ingredients are in the formula and what do they do?

Sake kasu and niacinamide are the headline act: sake kasu is a nutrient-rich byproduct of sake brewing, while niacinamide is a stable antioxidant derivative of vitamin B3. Together they gently condition, hydrate and support shine without relying on harsh detergents.

• Sake kasu: delivers proteins, amino acids and enzymes for conditioning
• Niacinamide: helps support hydration and a healthy-looking hair surface
• Free from SLS, SLES and parabens to reduce aggressive stripping
• Light, rinse-away texture suitable for regular use on colored hair

How should I use it for maximum color protection?

Massage a small amount into wet hair until it lathers, focusing on the scalp, then rinse and follow with a Color Lustre conditioner or treatment. For best color longevity, pair with the matching conditioner and limit washing to reduce cumulative fade.

• Apply to wet hair, work into a gentle lather, then rinse thoroughly
• Follow with Color Lustre conditioner or mask to lock in vibrancy
• Use 2–3 times per week or as needed to avoid over-cleansing
• Protect hair from heat and UV exposure between washes to extend color life

Will this shampoo suit fine, thick or chemically-treated hair?

The lightweight, sulfate-free blend is formulated to work across textures: it cleanses without heavy buildup on fine hair and provides conditioning support for denser or chemically processed strands. If your hair is very dry or heavily damaged, supplement with a targeted treatment mask.

• Fine hair: cleans without weighing strands down
• Thick or coarse hair: adds surface hydration and shine
• Chemically treated hair: helps reduce fading while offering conditioning
• For extreme dryness, pair with an intensive nourishing treatment

Who is this for: Color Lustre Shampoo is intended for anyone with dyed or color-enhanced hair who wants a gentler daily cleanser that helps maintain vibrancy and shine. It’s well suited to people seeking sulfate-free options and those who use complementary Color Lustre products to maximize color retention between salon appointments.
