Scalp treatments have never been more popular and I am loving it! As someone who regularly has an irritated, sensitive scalp and patches of psoriasis I appreciate the accessibility to gently treat and improve my scalp and hair health. The Inkey List have expanded their haircare range (wooo!) and I was ridiculously excited when the new Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Scrub arrived, keep reading to find out more!
Packaged in a lightweight bottle (which is recyclable!) with a nozzle dispenser for easy application the Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Scrub acts as both a physical and chemical exfoliant to remove build up and resurface your scalp. A pre wash treatment which starts at the roots removing dead skin and build up which enables hair follicles to strengthen and our hair growth improve. Promising a gentle formula which is suitable for all skin types including sensitive scalps it all sounded good to me!
What it Promises:
- To remove product buildup by gently exfoliating your scalp
- To help protect and balance your scalps microbiome
- Leave your hair looking healthy
- Suitable for every scalp and hair type
Key Ingredients:
The Inkey List always include effective ingredients! The skin and hair loving formula includes:
- Glycolic Acid – 7% to gently exfoliate your scalp removing product buildup and dead skin
- Symcontrol Scalp – Based on a Mediterranean Sea MicroAlgae. Aids regulating scalp sebum production by balancing oil production whilst protecting the hair fibre
- Castor Beads – a gentle physical exfoliator which is 100% biodegradable
- Bioecolia – helps to protect and balance the skin’s Ecoflora which in turn creates healthy scalp Microbiome
With a light fluid consistency the Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Scrub massages into my scalp with ease. The nozzle applicator makes it easy (and mess free!) to apply directly to my scalp and I appreciated that it enabled me to target specific areas directly. The castor beads are gentle and softly work away at build up without causing any irritation. I love the convenience of being able to use it on wet or dry hair pre wash, it makes it easy to fit into my day and ensures that I do not miss a treatment! After ten minutes it rinses off easily without the need for any excessive scrubbing!
I have been using the Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Scrub for four weeks, twice weekly and as with all skincare consistency is key, my scalp feels softer and my hair feels stronger. It has balanced my oily hair with a significant reduction in how quickly it becomes oily between washes. An effective exfoliant which is gentle and soothes the irritated areas on my scalp, not forgetting it is a relaxing treat which helps me to unwind at the end of the day. The bottle is long lasting, I have ample left to use which I love! a great and effective addition to any haircare routine and it’s super affordable! Another great haircare product from The Inkey List!
