Kristin Ess Anti-Fade Moisturizing Conditioner 10 fl oz — UV Color Shield & Peptide Protection, Sulfate-Free

Kristin Ess+ Anti-Fade Moisturizing Conditioner is a lightweight, silicone-free conditioner formulated with a UV Color Shield and peptide technology to preserve salon color, add moisture, and reduce frizz.

This conditioner is designed for color-treated hair that needs gentle but effective protection. Its Color Shield UV Complex works alongside targeted peptides, hydrating botanicals, and quinoa-derived ingredients to help maintain color vibrancy, boost shine, and improve manageability without weighing hair down. The formula is free of sulfates, parabens, silicones, and is vegan and cruelty-free, making it suitable for many hair care routines focused on preserving color and softness.

How does this conditioner help keep color from fading?

The product builds a protective barrier around the hair shaft to reduce color loss from sun exposure and everyday wear. Peptide technology supports strand strength while color-locking ingredients help retain pigments, so your color looks fresher between salon visits.

• Color Shield UV Complex helps block UV-induced fading
• Peptides reinforce and protect weakened areas of the fiber
• Hydrolized quinoa assists pigment retention and shine

Will it moisturize without making my hair greasy?

This is a moisturizing, silicone-free formula created to hydrate and smooth high- to medium-porosity hair without heaviness. Soybean oil plus lightweight conditioning agents soften and detangle, while the texture stays natural, not weighty.

• Silicone-free emollients for softer, more natural movement
• Soybean oil provides slip and frizz control without buildup
• Designed for damaged, color-treated hair to maintain body

Is this safe for chemically treated or keratin-treated hair?

The formula is keratin-safe and free of harsh sulfates and parabens, so it can be used on hair that has been colored, relaxed, or smoothed. As with any professional treatment, follow stylist guidance for timing and complementary products.

• Sulfate- and paraben-free to protect processed color
• Vegan and cruelty-free formulation supports salon-safe routines
• Suitable for straight, wavy, curly, and textured hair types

What sensory experience and scent can I expect?

The conditioner has a signature honey cream fragrance: a warm blend of almond, violet, honey, vanilla cream, and sandalwood notes. The lightweight cream texture spreads easily and leaves hair feeling silky with a subtle, lasting scent after rinse-out.

• Warm, salon-inspired honey cream scent for a luxe finish
• Light cream consistency for even application and quick rinsing
• Leaves hair manageable and pleasantly fragranced

Who is this for: Kristin Ess+ Anti-Fade Moisturizing Conditioner is aimed at anyone with color-treated or chemically processed hair seeking a gentle, effective way to prolong salon color and improve texture. It suits people who want a vegan, sulfate- and paraben-free option that adds hydration, reduces frizz, and protects against UV-related fading—especially those with medium to high hair porosity or hair that needs regular color maintenance.
