How the Starter plan works

No contract, no commitment. The Starter plan is not something you get stuck in. Cancel anytime in one click from your account: no fees, no minimum, no phone calls. Cancel before your next jar and you pay nothing more.

How it works. Your first jar costs €34,99. Every 6 weeks a new jar arrives: jar 2 costs €29,99 and every jar after that €27,99, instead of €40,99 bought once. Delivery is free on every jar.

You stay in control. Skip a jar, pause, or switch formula between jars whenever you like, all from your account.

Why a plan? It is simply the best way to get Ellips: a lower price on every jar after the first, free delivery, the free Ritual Kit (worth €29,97) with your first jar, and your next jar is reserved for you, so you are covered even if a formula sells out.

What's in the jar

Smooth & Shiny is for fine to medium hair that lacks body, including natural, light-coloured and grey hair.

Argan oil and aloe vera leave hair looking fuller and shinier, make brushing easier and reduce static. It feels light and non-greasy. It also contains vitamins A, C, E and pro-vitamin B5 in a light silicone base, and helps protect hair from heat styling and UV.

After washing, pat your hair dry. Twist off the tip of one capsule and work the oil through the damp lengths and ends, not the roots. If your hair is very fine, half a capsule is enough. No need to rinse.

Fifty 1 ml capsules, one a day: about fifty days of use. Each capsule stays closed until you open it, so the last one in the jar is as fresh as the first.

How to use

Twist off the tip and squeeze the 1 ml of oil onto your palms. Spread it through the lengths and ends of damp hair. Do not rinse. Dry and style as usual. Use one capsule a day, or half a capsule if your hair is very fine.

Delivery and cancelling

Delivery is free on every jar within the EU, on the Starter plan and one-time. Orders ship from the EU within about 3 working days. Try sizes on their own pay for delivery; add any jar and the whole order ships free.

On the Starter plan you can skip, pause or cancel anytime in one click from your account, with no fee. Cancel before your next jar and you pay nothing more. You also have the legal 14-day right to change your mind.

What our customers say

4.67 out of 5 from 36,300+ published Ellips ratings

Reviews from people who use one capsule a day.

My hair is very tangly and dry, and now it combs through so much more easily. It turns soft and supple right away. If your hair is like mine, try it. I’m sure you’ll want to use it every day.
MeganDublin
Really good hair vitamins. My hair turns soft, smooth and supple, and it doesn’t frizz. And the best part: the capsules smell amazing.
RebeccaDublin
My hair is long and fine, and once I started colouring it, it began to tangle and the ends split. I found Ellips on social media and decided to give them a go. I’m VERY happy: my hair shines beautifully, feels soft, doesn’t tangle, and the ends don’t split as often.
NiamhCork
I noticed the difference after the very first use. My hair combs through easily, with volume and shine. It smells lovely, and the capsules are so easy to use.
AmyDublin
After the very first capsule my hair was shiny and smooth, and I hadn’t even blow-dried or straightened it.
ClaireDublin
What I like most is that my hair looks fuller and my curls look neat and hold their shape for longer.

What to expect

Your first jar, step by step

One jar holds fifty capsules, enough for about fifty days. Here is what the first capsule does, what changes when it becomes a habit, and what you only get by using it every day.

  1. Day 1Your first capsule

    Twist off the tip and spread the 1 ml of oil through the lengths and ends of your damp hair. No need to rinse. Your hair is easier to comb straight away, and it looks smoother and shinier. If you use heat, apply it first: it protects up to 220 °C, but only if it is in your hair before the heat.

  2. Day 2–14It becomes a habit

    In the first two weeks, the thirty seconds become part of your routine. Each capsule holds 1 ml, so you do not have to guess the amount. With a pump bottle it is easy to use too little, which does nothing, or too much, which makes fine hair heavy. You learn where your hair needs it: the damp lengths and ends, never the roots. On the days you use it, hair is usually less frizzy, because smooth hair loses less moisture.

  3. Day 15–50Protection, day after day

    This is not repair. Hair is dead tissue, and damage that is already in your hair is permanent. What changes over these weeks is how much new damage you add: your hair has a protective layer each time you use a hair dryer or straightener, and the comb moves through more easily. Each capsule stays closed until you open it, so the last one in the jar is as fresh as the first. The jar runs out around day fifty.

What we can and cannot claim

Individual results vary. Ellips is a cosmetic leave-in treatment. It smooths the hair, makes it easier to comb and leaves a light protective layer that helps protect it from heat and brushing. It does not grow hair, because hair grows from the root, under the skin. It does not repair damage. The timeline above describes a routine, not a measured clinical result.

Frequently asked questions

What is in my order?

One jar of Ellips Hair Vitamin with fifty 1 ml capsules. At one capsule a day, that is about fifty days. EU delivery is free on every jar. On the Starter plan, your first jar also comes with the free Ritual Kit: two guidebooks by email and the Ellips Mystery Pack in your box.

How does the Starter plan work?

It is the simplest way to get Ellips for less, with no contract. Your first jar costs €34,99. A new jar arrives every 6 weeks: jar 2 costs €29,99 and every jar after that €27,99, instead of €40,99 bought once. Delivery is free, and your first jar comes with the free Ritual Kit (worth €29,97). Cancel anytime in one click from your account, with no fee: cancel before your next jar and you pay nothing more.

Can I buy without subscribing?

Yes. A one-time jar of fifty capsules costs €40,99, with free delivery. It comes without the Ritual Kit and without a plan. On the Starter plan every jar costs less, from €34,99 for the first.

What does one capsule replace?

For most people, three products: a leave-in serum, a weekly hair mask and a heat protection spray. It is an oil treatment that you put on damp hair and leave in. You do not rinse it out.

Does it make fine hair greasy?

Not if you use 1 ml on the lengths and ends. Keep it away from the roots. If your hair is very fine, use half a capsule, on the ends only.

Which formula is right for me?

There are eight formulas, each for a different hair need, and this page sells one of them. Compare all eight on the All products page, or take the hair quiz to find yours. On the Starter plan you can switch formula between jars.

What is in it, and is it safe?

Plant oils and vitamins in a soft capsule, with silicones that smooth the hair and help protect it from heat. Each formula has its own oils: the full list is under View ingredients at the top of this page. It is a cosmetic leave-in treatment, not a food supplement, and nothing is swallowed. Ellips has about 36,300 published ratings, with no safety complaints recorded in them.

Can I cancel?

Yes, anytime, in one click from your account. There is no contract, no minimum and no fee. Cancel before your next jar and you pay nothing more. You also have the legal 14-day right to change your mind.
