So soft and light scented

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the perfect size to take with me on my trip to Italy. I used it mainly on my full body and it was perfect! It melted into my skin and lasted for the majority part of the day.

Great addition for daily routine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I thought this was a great everyday staple! For context, I have straight, thick, color treated hair. Though my hair is fairly healthy, I tend to experience some dryness or frizz from time to time and prefer to use a daily serum/leave in conditioner. While this isn't necessarily the most hydrating formula, it is elegantly formulated and absorbs quickly to both damp hair and skin without leaving any texture or residue. It also has a very light and floral scent, which adds to a more luxurious experience. While this isn't necessarily a must have, it's definitely a nice treat to look forward to as part of a daily routine!

Adds shine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is so easy to use and distribute evenly to all strands. It is not oily or sticky. It is a lightweight balm that smells amazing. It adds hydration to the hair but the effect does not last very long. My hair feels the same dry and frizzy again the next day. That's the only drawback.

I would definitely recommend this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product for a couple of weeks now, I like this product. I have long fine curly hair, and it gives my curls shine. It's not heavy so it doesn't weigh my hair down like some other products do. It makes my hair feel very soft, and make might hair look very hydrated as well. I love that you can also use it for your hands. It leaves my hands feeling silky smooth without the greasy feeling, the only downside is that it doesn't penetrate your skin so it washes off easily. It also smells really good which is a plus for me.

Not just for hair but also skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is very gentle on skin. I was planning to use it just on my hair but my family ended up stealing some to use on rough skin. Very silky. And obviously also great for hair. With the weather changing and skin/hair being drier it'll help. I have only had for a cough of weeks but I am excited to see if my hair is less frizzy long term. I received this as a gift.

Hydrating without being greasy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My skin tends to run very dry and I'm always on the lookout for something that can help. After using this I did notice a difference without feeling greasy. The smell was light enough it didn't bother my husband who is super sensitive to smells. Glad I was chosen to be part of the group to try it!

A balm for hair and hands

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed using a balm for hair and hands. I have never used a product like this and I think it was very good. It smells great and is very light. I have curly hair and would make my hair damp and then use some product to refresh my curls. I use it daily in-between wash days! It doesn't have a hold like a gel, but smoothed fly aways and frizz.

Versatile balm

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Hair & Skin Balm for a few weeks now, and I am very impressed with the results. My hair feels softer and smoother than ever before, and it is much less frizzy. You only need a little bit of product, if u add too much it will weigh down your hair. My skin is also feeling more hydrated and protected. Overall, I highly recommend the Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Hair & Skin Balm. It is a great product for those who are looking for a versatile and effective way to nourish and protect their hair and skin. This one bottle gets the job done for you hair and skin.

Moisture Miracle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This elixir can be used on hair or skin. I've mostly used it on my hair and reeped the benefits of this elixir by gaining long lasting moisturized hair. And a little goes a long way, so I'm super happy to reep the benefits of using this serum for as long as possible. Definitely a worthy splurge!

Thank you for bringing my best hair back!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little skeptical at the beginning because (I don't know why) I don't believe the products for both hair and skin. I have to eat my words because this balm is a-ma-zing! I'm going through some hormonal changes and my hair is being suffering a lot: the texture is rough and the shine was non existing. Not anymore! I love it because my hair is looking good again, shinny, healthy and sooooooft. And not felling heavy or leaving my hair with stickyness or felling heavy. The smell is light and delightful and the best part is how soft and moisturize my hands are after putting in my hair and adding a last dab for my hands (and elbows!)

Give it a try!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have very frizzy, curly hair and it works okay on me. It doesn't fight humidity they way I need it to but it does tame majority of the frizz when indoors. As a lotion, it doesn't sink into my skin the best but I love that I can use this for both hair and skin. It's perfect for when I'm running late and running out the door. The scent is nice and subtle as well! I would recommend people to give this a try.

"Universal" Is a Stretch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like shue uemura products in general and this one smells nice, but "universal" is a bit of stretch here... It feels like putting lotion in my hair but it isn't a particularly good body lotion on its own, either. I appreciate the novelty of a combo product, but for this price, I'd go with separate skincare and haircare.

Bye bye frizz!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I fell in love with this universal balm! It is a great product for taming dry, frizzy hair! My hair has changed after two pregnancies and I have these baby hair that never grows out. This product helps my hair to smooth out and stay put. I really enjoy using it and recommends it to everyone who faces the same challenges I do!

Future purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have received this in exchange for a review. The perfume is not strong at all and it does leave my skin and hair feeling soft and nourished. My big concern in the beginning is that my hair would be greasy or I would break out with scalp acne. After quite a while of usage, I have not experienced those issues at all. I'm planning on purchasing this after moving to treat myself. Highly recommend this!

Frizz Free and Soft!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the balm for the past couple of weeks. I can't believe how it instantly makes my hair soft and removes any frizz. I naturally have frizzy hair from the humidity and this has saved me. It has a floral clean smell but not overwhelming whatsoever. Overall my hair is shiner, detangled, and less dry. A little goes a long way. I mainly use it on my hair but it is moisturizing on the skin as well.

Helps With Dry Hair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used it a few times and it has helped my hair from being so dry. I usually suffer from dry hair and scalp and since using this I have noticed my hair being more moisturized than it usually is after it is dry and after washing it. I haven't used it on my skin just my hair.

Great Skin Balm; Not So Great Hair Balm

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this product for free in exchange for an honest review and couldn't wait to try it out. The first thing I noticed was that the scent is exactly that of a cherry Jolly Rancher. Not what I expected from a luxury product...but I don't exactly hate it! I am giving this product a mixed review because that's what I found it to be. A product with mixed objectives, trying to do too much and not able to achieve all of its promises. The bad: it didn't get there for me as a moisturizing hair balm. I have thick hair with some wave and didn't notice any additive moisture after use. There was also very minimal instruction of how much to use. A pea size? A quarter? More? I was mindful that I didn't want it to feel greasy either so maybe I didn't use enough and will continue to be hopeful and play with the range, but I just wasn't impressed. I typically use an olive oil based conditioner and see better results from that. The good news: As a skin balm, this is great! I used this on rougher areas like elbows and feet and it has kept them very smooth.

Ideal for Dry, Thick Hair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This balm wasn't a great fit for my hair but it's really nice for skin. For context, I have fine hair and terribly dry skin - any type of oil tends to weigh down my hair so my main use for this was to use on my skin. I need some serious moisturizer for my skin year-round but this is quite light. I think this would be ideal for anyone looking for something non-greasy and something that sinks into the skin quickly. It smells heavenly, the scent is a perfect match for honeysuckle. It seriously softened my skin upon application although I wish the moisture lasted a bit longer throughout the day. This is marketed as a balm but I think is not what I think of when I think of a balm - the product is very light, not thick. I use the Shu Uemura Rice Water Tonic in my hair which is LEGIT but I don't think this a superstar product for the price.

Super soft hair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do use this product every day on my hair and it has been so soft. I have had other people comment on how smooth and soft my hair is. Less split as well.

Great hair moisturizer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is nice and lightweight. I currently have my hair in box braids and used it after I took my hair down. It left my hair feeling soft and moisturizer without being heavy or greasy. I also used it on my daughter's hair and worked well and supported the detangling process.

So Nourishing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was gifted by Shu Uemura for my review. I really like this haircare product and I find that it brings back moisture to my hair and skin. I enjoy using a small amount after swimming to prevent damage. I looking forward to using it during the dry winter months when my hair gets dry and frizzy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product on my wet hair after washing and let me tell you….. my frizz is gone! It didn't make my hair oily or greasy. It worked like a charm. I have wavy hair that tends to get frizzy and this definitely will work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product, it helps keep my short curly new growth hairs looking nice and not like frizz. It makes my hair feel moisturized and helped with knots. It's the first product I found to tame the new growth while being gentle on it and improving the rest of my hair at the same time. I love it and will be repurchasing

Multi-use and nourishing cream

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A big pet peeve of mine is when I'm post shower, and I want to add product in my hair, but my hands are covered in lotion from moisturizing my legs. That's why I really love that this product can be used for both your body and hair! I docked a star because I wish the texture of the product was a bit richer, but overall I was impressed with how nourishing this cream is!

Softening and Lightweight Hair Oil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shu Uemura makes the best hair products and this oil is no exception. It's a beautiful, light weight oil that's great for everyday use. It makes your hair so soft and moisturized. I like to use it after washing to nourish my strands. However, my favorite way to use it is on dirty hair. After dry shampooing my day 3 hair, I will take a tiny amount of oil and warm it on up in my hands. Then I run it through the mid-lengths to the ends (focusing the most on the ends); it leaves my hair looking full and shiny. I'm excited to see how this oil works to help my hair in the cold and dry winter months.

A Miracle Balm for My Hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] irst and foremost, the versatility of this balm is astonishing. I've used it as a pre-shampoo treatment, a leave-in conditioner, and even as a styling product – and it excels in every role. When applied before washing, it leaves my hair feeling incredibly soft and manageable. As a leave-in conditioner, it imparts a heavenly, long-lasting moisture that keeps my hair hydrated throughout the day. The texture of the balm is luxurious and melts into my hair effortlessly, without leaving any greasy residue. A little goes a long way, so the jar lasts a surprisingly long time. I appreciate that it's not heavy, making it perfect for daily use without weighing my hair down. The scent is simply divine – a delicate, pleasant fragrance that lingers without being overpowering. I love how my hair smells after applying it! This is a product that I definitely recommend.

It's ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Does what it needs to do as a hair moisturizer, I have 4b hair. I also use it on my skin when I need a touch up. I wouldn't reccomend on hot days as it will leave you feeling greasy due to the glam and sweat mixing,

Slowly but surely

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this strictly for my 4c hair and didn't try it on my skin. After using it for a few weeks, I see improvement in moisturizing my hair, but I believe I need to use it for longer to get that lustered shine.

Versatile and Effective Balm!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks Shu Uemura for the free Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Balm! This balm smells amazing on my skin and in my hair. It has a really nice consistency that doesn't leave an oily feeling on my skin or in my hair. When I use the balm for as a moisturizing lotion it always rubs in nicely and the scent is gentle and not overpowering. When I apply to my hair it helps smooth frizz and gives my hair a beautiful shine. I would recommend to someone looking for a product that is versatile and can be used to get multiple results.

Smells amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product has a wonderful smell and was great for my skin such as the elbows and heels of my feet, however I didn't find it did much for my hair. I applied it to damp hair on a rainyish day and my hair still came out very frizzy and not really moisturized. However, this moisturized my sling greatly and smells wonderful.

Pretty good, quality ingredients

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works as a hair balm and lotion. The only draw back is that it is a little sticky and not slide. You can't run it in. It sits on top. This product becomes amazing tho when you add a lil water on top after putting it on. I still think it's amazing because it feels good for both skin and hair, I just wish it was oilier.

I use it at night before I go to bed, and I mix it with a spray gel when I want to sleek my hair back in a bun. I am pleasantly surprised by how well this works in my hair. I can't recommend it enough!

Hello beautiful hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair is incredibly dry and damaged, but I absolutely adore this product. It was in critical condition after being colored and from daily heat, but this balm has made my hair feel softer and shiny. It also help tame frizz on my naturally curly hair. This moisturizer is fantastic, and I can't get enough of it! I will definitely be purchasing another bottle when this one is gone. I must advice that a little bit goes a long way and I only use it from midshaft to the ends. If you add too much, it'll weigh your hair down and make it difficult to style. (I received a full size bottle in exchange for and honest review)

Nourishing balm for hair and skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this essence absolue nourishing universal balm. It works well for both dry hair and dry skin. For hair, you can apply to wet or dry hair and it moisturizes and provides Hydration to dry strands. For my skin, it soothes dry cracked areas. There is barely any smell and its not irritating. I also really like the applicator pump bottle which allows the balm to easily come out. My hair and body loves this.

it was meh

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free full-sized bottle of the Shu Uemura Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Balm from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review and honestly… this product was meh. I have A LOT of fine hair with low porosity which means it's difficult for moisture to penetrate my hair. I felt like this thick and rich balm didn't truly absorb into my hair, it just sat on top and weighed it down leaving me with this greasy heavy feeling no matter how many pumps of product applied. It smells nice, like a gardenia!

A Luxurious Must-Have for Hair: Shu Uemura Essence Absolue N

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Shu Uemura Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Balm, and I must say, it has quickly become an essential part of my haircare routine. This product is nothing short of a game-changer. First and foremost, the packaging is both sleek and convenient. The small jar is easy to store and take on the go, making it perfect for travel. But the real magic lies inside the jar. The balm itself is a silky, lightweight texture that instantly melts into my hair without leaving any greasy residue. I have fine, straight hair, and I was initially worried that this balm might be too heavy, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's incredibly nourishing without weighing my hair down. The scent is heavenly – a delicate floral aroma that lingers throughout the day, leaving my hair smelling fresh and luxurious. The true beauty of this product lies in its versatility. I use it as a pre-shampoo treatment to deeply nourish my hair, as a leave-in conditioner to tame frizz and add shine, and even as a styling aid to smooth flyaways. It works wonders in all these roles, and a little goes a long way. After just a few weeks of incorporating Shu Uemura's Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Balm into my haircare routine, I've noticed a remarkable improvement in the overall health and appearance of my hair. It looks and feels softer, shinier, and healthier than ever before. While this product may come with a higher price tag, it's undoubtedly worth every penny. If you're looking for a versatile, high-quality hair treatment that delivers on its promises, I highly recommend giving Shu Uemura's Essence Absolue Nourishing Universal Balm a try. It's now a staple in my haircare collection, and I can't imagine going without it.
