Luxury hair care brand Kérastase has released new visuals of IVE’s Wonyoung, who serves as the brand’s Japan local ambassador, in conjunction with the launch of its holiday coffrets, which go on sale today (the 23rd). Wonyoung appears holding a coffret in a gold-star limited design featuring the brand’s iconic “K” logo and delicate snowflakes. The coffret is perfect not only as a gift to express gratitude to someone important, but also as a reward for oneself after working hard for a year. Wonyoung’s supple beauty and dignified glamour overlap with Kérastase’s message: “Hair is your individuality. Bringing you uncompromising radiance.” In addition, a new image movie released to coincide with the October 23 launch of a new product from the “Gloss Absolu” series expresses, together with Wonyoung’s sophisticated charm, the world of glossy, beautiful hair that the series aims for. The new visuals featuring the new “Gloss Absolu” product express the beauty of radiant hair proposed by the series. Along with Wonyoung’s new expression, they deliver the enhanced appeal of “Gloss Absolu.” Product information: “Frizz Glaze Cream” (hair milk) 240 mL: 7,700 yen (tax included) “Le Parfum” (perfumed hair mist) 30 mL: 7,370 yen (tax included) ★On sale October 23 Three limited-edition coffrets to brighten the holiday season: “Kérastase Day and Night Set” Contents: Huile Chronologiste 75 mL (hair oil), Magic Night Serum 30 mL (hair milk) Price: 11,550 yen (tax included) “Kérastase Day and Night Mini Set” Contents: Huile Chronologiste 30 mL (hair oil), Magic Night Serum 30 mL (hair milk) Price: 6,930 yen (tax included) “Kérastase Gloss Absolu Hair Mist Set” Contents: Le Parfum 30 mL (perfumed hair mist), Glazedrops 15 mL (hair oil) Price: 7,370 yen (tax included) Related link: Kérastase official website Product information: “Frizz Glaze Cream” (hair milk) 240 mL: 7,700 yen (tax included) “Le Parfum” (perfumed hair mist) 30 mL: 7,370 yen (tax included) ★On sale October 23 Three limited-edition coffrets to brighten the holiday season: “Kérastase Day and Night Set” Contents: Huile Chronologiste 75 mL (hair oil), Magic Night Serum 30 mL (hair milk) Price: 11,550 yen (tax included) “Kérastase Day and Night Mini Set” Contents: Huile Chronologiste 30 mL (hair oil), Magic Night Serum 30 mL (hair milk) Price: 6,930 yen (tax included) “Kérastase Gloss Absolu Hair Mist Set” Contents: Le Parfum 30 mL (perfumed hair mist), Glazedrops 15 mL (hair oil) Price: 7,370 yen (tax included) Related link: Kérastase official website
