Vichy Dercos Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is a product that is designed to eliminate dandruff and provide anti-dandruff protection for up to 6 weeks. The shampoo is composed of purifying and soothing active ingredients that can eliminate all the dirt and residue build-up from the hair and reduce dandruff associated with a dry scalp. The key ingredients of the shampoo are:
Active Ingredients:
-
Selenium DS: It has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action, significantly reduces dandruff while preventing damage to hair follicles and strengthening the scalp’s ability to defend itself against external aggressors.
-
Salicylic Acid: It regulates the production of sebum and has antifungal capabilities that offer benefits for the treatment of dandruff while reducing the itching associated with dry scalp.
-
Ceramide: It moisturizes and fortifies the protection of the hair and scalp.
-
Menthol: It has a soothing and refreshing effect on the scalp.
Other Ingredients:
-
Water: It is the most common cleansing ingredient of all and is usually the Chief Bubble Officer responsible for big bubbles in cleansing products.
-
Sodium Laureth Sulfate: It is a surfactant that is used as a primary cleanser in the shampoo.
-
Glycol Distearate: It is a skin conditioning and emollient agent that is used to increase the viscosity of the shampoo.
-
Dimethicone: It is a non-volatile silicone that stays on the hair rather than evaporates from it and smoothes the hair.
-
Glycerin: It is a natural moisturizer that’s also in our skin.
The shampoo is effective in treating dandruff, but it contains SLES and Cocamidopropyl Betaine, which can irritate sensitive scalps. However, the shampoo has an excellent combination of active ingredients that can help in treating seborrheic dermatitis.
