About the product
Exfoliating Gel Mask for dry scalp is an alternative to home exfoliation; it provides gentle and effective exfoliation and cleansing of the scalp from stubborn impurities around the hair follicles.
The mask is designed to care for skin prone to *dryness, it is recommended in case of flaking, increased skin sensitivity, a feeling of tightness and/or discomfort at the root of the hair.
*Dryness of the scalp skin can occur with irrational care, frequent use of inappropriate detergents or hair care products, after hair coloring, as well as in the presence of a number of dermatoses, excessive ultraviolet light, allergic diseases.
There is a connection between increased skin dryness and psycho-emotional factors, irrational diet and sleep disorders. In this case, there are changes in both the quantity and quality of sebum, there is a violation of the skin barrier, colonization of the scalp with pathogenic microflora.
Inflammatory changes, dry scales (dandruff), itching may appear on the skin, often one is bothered by painful skin or hair roots. In this case, there may be increased hair loss, for the treatment of which they use medicine that has an irritating base, leading to aggravation of the problem of the scalp and the emergence of a vicious circle.
Now it is established that the peculiarities of sebum secretion are predetermined genetically. Thus, the combination of adverse factors and genetic features suggests the need for long-term use of modern specialized products that take into account all the features of this problem.
The key components of the exfoliating gel mask for dry scalp are fermented enzymes and proteolytic enzymes, as well as azeloglycin (azelaic acid derivative).
Pumpkin fruit filtrate contains proteolytic enzymes that promote exfoliation and activate cell renewal without irritating the skin. The complex of protease and lipase effectively hydrolyzes sebum to free fatty acids, and dying horny scales of the epidermis are broken down to amino acids. Thus, the functional activity of the skin barrier in conditions of dry seborrhea is improved.
A derivative of azelaic acid – azeloglycin – controls sebum production and also reduces the level of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by inhibiting 5 alpha-reductase, the increased activity of which causes thinning and hair loss. Azeloglycin has been proven to block the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines (fragments of protein molecules).
Carrageenan from red seaweed promotes rapid skin regeneration, has an emollient and anti-inflammatory effect. Maltodextrin retains moisture. Xanthan gum has a pronounced moisturizing effect, inhibits excessive bacterial activity, reduces inflammation levels
Siberian fir extract has a pronounced antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial and deodorizing effect, improves skin elasticity. Gluconolactone belongs to polyhydroxy acids (PHA). Like other acids, it has the ability to effectively remove keratinized cells.
Gluconolactone, due to its large molecular weight, slowly penetrates into cells and therefore has better moisturizing properties than alpha hydroxy (AHA)- and beta hydroxy acids, and is therefore suitable for dry and sensitive skin. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Purpose: Gently and effectively exfoliates and cleanses the scalp of stubborn impurities around the hair follicles. It helps to improve cell renewal, regulate sebum production1 and restore healthy skin.
