Bond Builder Lipid Shield is ideal for those with dry, damaged hair. Those who frequently use heated styling tools, or colour-treat, bleach or chemically treat their tresses. 

Bond Builder Lipid Shield is inspired by the hairs natural lipid layer (or epicuticle). The lipid layer is a complex layer that coats each hair strand to protect the cuticle against damage (caused by heat and chemicals) and provide the hair with its shine and slip to make it easier to manage.

Bond Builder Lipid Shield contains advanced biomimetic technology and ingredients (meaning they mimic the hair’s natural lipid layer) that restores, strengthens and replenishes lost lipids caused by chemical processing and heat styling and is clinically proven to restore the hydrophobicity of damaged hair after just one use*.

• 98% of our independent user panel reported it left behind no residue^.
• Proven to protect hair against heat damage from temperatures of up to 450oF/232oC after just one use**.
• 9 in 10 users reported hair felt more resistant to damage after just two weeks^.

Suitable for all hair textures, this versatile, fast-absorbing product can be used as a leave-in treatment, an overnight hair oil, or as an intense boost beneath a pre-shampoo treatment (such as Elasticizer Deep-Conditioning Treatment or Bond Builder Restructuring Treatment). It leaves strands supple, stronger and shinier, plus more resilient and protected against damage, enabling you to style without compromise.

Joining existing heroes Bond Builder Split End Remedy and Bond Builder Restructuring Treatment, Bond Builder Restorative Oil marks the third innovation to join Philip Kingsley’s famed Bond Builder range, which focuses on damage prevention and bond repair. The three products work in tandem to shape a full, reparative hair care routine:

   Treatment to reinforce, repair and restructure broken bonds
   inside the hair, helping strands become stronger and healthier.
2. After shampooing and conditioning, follow with Bond Builder
   Restorative Oil, designed to restore the lipid layer — the hair’s first
   line of defence — and strengthen strands against damage.
3. Bond Builder Split End Remedy marks the final step in the
   regimen, sealing split ends and strengthening bonds before
   styling.
