An intensive anti-dandruff shampoo for stubborn, itchy flaking
ACM Novophane K Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is an intensive anti-dandruff shampoo built around an antifungal complex of piroctone olamine, glyceryl undecylenate, vitamin PP and inulin, targeting the yeast linked to persistent dandruff. Salicylic acid at 3% helps lift and remove existing scales, while sodium lactate, lactic acid and glycyrrhetinic acid calm irritation and itchiness, leaving hair manageable and easier to comb through.
How it works
A treating shampoo with a moderate lather that targets the scalp on contact and rinses out cleanly, without weighing hair down.
Who it suits
- Severe, stubborn or recurring dandruff
- A scalp that itches, reddens or flakes visibly
- Anyone who has tried gentler anti-dandruff shampoos without success
- All hair types needing an intensive scalp treatment
Worth knowing before you buy: This is an intensive treatment for severe dandruff; use it one to three times a week rather than as a daily shampoo, and alternate with a gentle one.
How long a bottle lasts
Used one to three times a week, a 125ml bottle typically lasts around six to eight weeks.
