MakeUp Revolution Haircare Salicylic Acid Clarifying Shampoo for Oily Hair

Product Information

Regarding skincare and tea tree oil, its most well-known effect is probably being a well established anti-acne ingredient. Multiple studies confirm that TTO is effective against the evil acne-causingbacteria called P. acnes and the effectiveness of 5% TTO gel is comparable to the gold standard anti-acne treatment,5% Benzoyl Peroxidelotion. You need to be a bit more patient with TTO, though, as its effects come slower but also with fewer side effects.

This shampoo and conditioner act as dual magicians to vanish irritated, red, and acne-prone scalps. Both products use salicylic acid to combat oil while fortifying strands with moisturizing ingredients like lactic acid and wheat protein. We are also thrilled to see menthol and rosemary oil listed on the bottle since these anti-inflammatory ingredients have a soothing, cooling sensation that’ll feel fantastic on aggravated skin. Menthol and apple cider vinegar get right to work calming irritation and exfoliating the scalp, leaving behind a tingling feeling as a telltale sign that they’re working. Its other benefits—like promoting hair growth through niacinamide and red flower extract—may take a little longer to see, but we’re in it for the long run. And although it only contains 0.25% of salicylic acid (a relatively low amount), the BHA still works so well with the naturally acidic apple cider vinegar to deep-clean the hair, balance the pH of your scalp, and rid it of dandruff.

We got Kate to answer the most common ones. Who are salicylic acid shampoos suitable for? One suggestion: You may need to put in a little more elbow grease to work up a rich foam, but we promise the formula delivers as promised. This shampoo is formulated using Salicylic Acid and Tee Tree Oil, which work together to exfoliate and refresh the hair and scalp, leaving it cleansed and oil-free. Piroctone Olamine is an intense clarifying agent, which helps to remove bacterial and fungal cultures to refresh and balance the scalp further. Betaine provides an anti-static covering, which prevents hair from frizzing whilst Panthenol improves hair strength and gently softens it, enhancing manageability. Sulphate-free.

Published 2021 Jul 27. doi:10.3390/molecules26154535 If you took one look at the ingredient list and balked at the idea of using sulfates, hear us out. Gohara recommends this shampoo because she says that the “BHA is steeped in a gentle shampoo surfactant,” known as SLES, which Dr. Rachel Nazarian of Schweiger Dermatology Group previously told us that this kind of sulfate has a much lower rate of irritation than an SLS like sodium lauryl sulfate. Used alongside the high percentage of salicylic acid, the ingredients work beautifully to cast away flakes, dissolve build-up, and mitigate the effects of psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis. Additionally, it’s free of fragrances, dyes, and PABA — a potentially harmful acid that could cause negative skin reactions. Revolution Haircare Salicylic Acid Scalp Clarifying Shampoo for Oily Hair (250ml) effectively combines haircare with the delicate science of skincare, harnessing the traditional skincare ingredient to create a formula which boosts moisture levels and reduces excess oiliness. Taylor initially steered us toward this shampoo for those experiencing hair loss, and after seeing its natural formula and sustainable manufacturing practices, we were sold on the idea of using it. In addition to salicylic acid, the formula leans on multi-talented ingredients that simultaneously remove oil buildup and result in more voluminous hair. Ginseng and turmeric, for example, have not only been shown to promote hair growth, but they also boast anti-inflammatory properties that quell itchy skin. Lactic acid is another star player that gently breaks down pore-clogging dirt, opens the follicle up to new growth, and boosts vibrancy. While the formula doesn’t contain a super high percentage of salicylic acid, this shampoo still does a stellar job of vanquishing flakes as it works in tandem with niacinamide to refresh skin and reduce flakiness. What’s more, thanks to its inclusion of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients such as limonene, you could finally find relief from irritated skin.

Seborrheic dermatitis is closely related to dandruff, and is also marked by a flaky, itchy scalp. This inflammatory skin condition is known for skin flakes that are more oily than they are dry.

Published 2021 Oct 18. doi:10.2147/CCID.S334145 If you have fine or thin hair, we recommend following this one up with a hydrating conditioner (perhaps a leave-in one), since it can be slightly drying. Gohara says you can also keep an eye out for clarifiers like kaolin clay, “an absorbing mineral-rich clay,” that works well alongside salicylic acid to gently rid your scalp of impurities. The short ingredient list includes the most important one—3% salicylic acid. At this amount, the ingredient is very effective at detoxifying the scalp without feeling too stripping. Additionally, it has no added fragrance, silicones, or sulfates so it’s a safe choice for those with sensitive skin, too (though we always recommend doing a patch test before applying a new product).
