Hi Beka,
I actually think the same products that I use would be perfect for you.
I use the Bain Satin Shampoo #1:
I use #1 because the numbers refer to how much nutritive elements the shampoo has, and if you have fine, color-treated hair, you need a little bit of nourishment but I found out the hard way that too much can actually cause your hair to be more brittle and drier. So the #1 gluco-dose or whatever they call it is sifficient for every day use. Then you can get the mutri-defense masque:
and use that once every two weeks to get a shock of nutrients to your hair. For myself, I make my own hair mask that I wear overnight or while I am swimming under my cap with nutritive oils such as coconut, palm, olive, and jojoba, with rosemary essential oil 1%.
Then it sounds like you would love Lait Vital:
, which is a super-light, but very moisturizing creme rinse. It's not often recommended because it is one of their original products and not one of their fancy new conditioners, but it is really the best for every day to leave hair shiny, manageable, and not weighed down, but nicely hydrated.
I would NOT recommend the shine line (dark pink) for you or anyone else--it's terrible!
Finally, you could use the ciment for blowdrying, but in between washes if your ends get dry, and instant softening/strenghtening balm is substance constructive:
.
I prefer this to the Lumi-sculpt or the other leave-in products in the white/orange line.
I have tried almost all Kerastase products at some point, and I have similar hair to yours. I highly recommend these products to start, so you won't use heavy, silicone-laden conditioners that will weigh your hair down or inadvertently dry out your hair using too many nourishing products. And probably the best thing you can do is stop blowdrying your hair, which would help to eliminate excess dryness, which is terrible for people with fine hair, as you may know!
