How quickly will I notice relief from dryness and itch?

Most users feel an immediate cooling and soothing effect on application, with improved comfort after several consecutive uses. The formula works on the scalp surface to reduce tightness while supporting longer-term moisture balance.

• Instant cooling sensation on contact
• Daily use helps reduce persistent itchiness
• Overnight treatments amplify hydration and calmness

What key ingredients help restore scalp balance?

This essence blends pre- and postbiotic technology with botanical allies to maintain a healthy scalp environment. Together, these ingredients protect the scalp barrier, replenish lipids, and support the microbiome without weighing hair down.

• Rosehip oil: rich in vitamins and antioxidants for lightweight nourishment
• Vegan SmartRelease protein: pea- and plant-derived protein to mimic hair’s natural protein
• Stinging nettle: vitamin-rich extract that supports a balanced scalp ecosystem
• Pre- and postbiotics: help maintain a protective microbial barrier

How do I use the essence for best results?

Apply after shampooing and towel-drying for everyday maintenance, or as an overnight mask for deeper replenishment. A little goes a long way—focus the product where the scalp feels driest or most irritated.
