Derma E Scalp Relief Rinse — 4 fl oz pre‑shampoo exfoliant with salicylic & lactic acids for clearer, shinier scalp

This concentrated 4 fl oz rinse combines salicylic and lactic acids to gently dissolve oil, dead skin, and debris while apple cider vinegar helps rebalance scalp pH for a glossier finish. Menthol delivers a refreshing cooling sensation and a botanical herbal complex provides moisture support to reduce visible dryness and discomfort. Designed as a targeted pre‑wash step, it rinses away residue and primes the scalp for cleaner, more comfortable shampooing without compromising color‑treated hair.

How does this rinse remove buildup without over‑drying?

The formula uses a blend of beta and alpha hydroxy acids to loosen follicle‑clogging particles and sloughed skin without strong detergents. Apple cider vinegar helps normalize surface pH, which can reduce the need for harsh surfactants later in your wash routine.

• Salicylic acid penetrates to dissolve sebum and flakes.
• Lactic acid gently exfoliates and hydrates at the same time.
• ACV helps rebalance pH for smoother, shinier strands.
• Pre‑shampoo format means less frequent heavy cleansing is required.

Will it irritate color‑treated or sensitive scalps?

This rinse is formulated to be color‑safe and avoids harsh sulfates and parabens. The actives are dosed to exfoliate and clarify while a calming herbal complex and humectants help minimize irritation when used as directed.

• Safe for color when used as a pre‑wash treatment and rinsed well.
• Herbal blend supports barrier comfort and reduces tightness.
• Avoid leaving on longer than recommended if your scalp is very reactive.
• Patch test if you have a history of sensitivity to acids.

How do I use the Scalp Relief Rinse for best results?

Section dry or damp hair and apply directly to the scalp, focusing on areas with visible buildup or itching. Gently massage for even coverage, leave up to 15 minutes, then rinse and follow with your regular shampoo and conditioner.

• Use as a pre‑shampoo: apply, massage, wait up to 15 minutes, then rinse.
• For recurring buildup, use once weekly; adjust frequency based on scalp response.
• Follow with gentle shampoo and conditioner to seal and nourish strands.
• Do not use with other strong exfoliating treatments on the same day.

What sensory effects and benefits will I notice?

Menthol produces a cooling, invigorating feel immediately on application, and the rinse should leave the scalp feeling clearer and less weighed down. After shampooing, hair generally appears shinier and easier to manage due to reduced residue and improved surface pH.

• Cooling menthol sensation for immediate scalp relief.
• Reduced visible flakes and oiliness after use.
• Improved shine and smoother hair surface post‑wash.
• Lightweight hydration from the botanical support complex.

Who this is for: This Scalp Relief Rinse suits people who experience scalp buildup, occasional flaking, dull hair from residue, or mild irritation from product accumulation. It’s a good fit for color‑treated and chemically processed hair when used as a targeted pre‑wash step, and for anyone seeking a plant‑inspired, cruelty‑free scalp clarifier without sulfates or parabens. If you have severe scalp conditions or open sores, consult a healthcare professional before use.
