A 9-ingredient shampoo that calms itching and tightness from the first wash
Ducray Sensinol Physio-Protective Soothing Shampoo is a gentle treatment shampoo for sensitive, itchy and reactive scalps. With only 9 ingredients, 98% of natural origin, its hypoallergenic formula cleans while relieving itching, tightness and irritation, and limits their return even after you stop using it. It works on itching from many causes, such as stress, pollution, temperature changes, colouring, unsuitable hair products or dryness. In Ducray's studies, itching was calmed from the first use and greatly reduced after one month, with the effect lasting a month after stopping. It can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
The texture
A soft, low-foam shampoo that rinses out easily and leaves hair supple, shiny and soft. It has no added fragrance.
Who it suits
- Itchy, tight or irritated scalps
- Scalps reacting to colouring or styling
- Sensitive scalps that need frequent washing
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
Worth knowing before you buy: it does not treat dandruff flakes; for visible dandruff with itching, use a Kelual DS shampoo instead. The gentle base foams less than classic shampoos.
