Product Description
Eucerin DermoCapillaire Shampoo 250 ml
Why We Chose This Product
- Eucerin DermoCapillaire shampoo is a shampoo designed for dry and itchy scalps. It contains the ingredients urea and lactic acid. These are natural moisturising factors, found naturally within the skin. These bind water to hydrate the scalp.
-
Urea also has mild anti-bacterial activity and helps restore Filaggrin, a key component of the skin barrier.
- The shampoo is mildly acid (pH 5), which is useful for the skin's health.
- Eucerin contains no fragrances or colourings, so it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction (contact allergy) to the skin.
- Eucerin also contains panthenol (vitamin B5). Two studies showed that Panthenol can improve skin hydration following irritation from detergents.
Directions
Apply to damp hair, massage and rinse.
Cautions
Eucerin does contain some preservatives and detergents so there is a small risk of allergic reaction or irritation. Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients listed.
