What is the Aura hair smoothing treatment?

Aura is a formaldehyde-free smoothing system that uses biotechnologically fermented hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate, soften and straighten the hair. Think of it as a smarter alternative to traditional keratin hair treatments - one that’s safer, more sustainable, and way more hydrating.

Unlike older straightening systems, Aura doesn’t just coat your hair. It works from within to smooth frizz, reduce volume, and give your hair a silky, manageable texture - all while keeping its natural movement.
