A dandruff-prone scalp shows visible flaking, often linked to Malassezia yeast overgrowth, and may come with itching or mild inflammation. It benefits from balance — not just oil control or just moisture.

Balanced by Nature: Ingredients for Dandruff-Prone Scalp

Why These Pre-Formulated Ingredients?:

A dandruff-prone scalp needs targeted balance. Piroctone olamine and neem leaf extract work together against Malassezia, the yeast most closely linked to flaking, while niacinamide supports the scalp barrier alongside them. Willow bark extract offers gentle, salicylate-based scale support, and propanediol helps disperse the piroctone evenly while adding humectant benefit — all formulated to stay light near the scalp.
