Boost natural exfoliation
The scalp and skin of the face share biological mechanisms essential for maintaining their physiological equilibrium, including desquamation. Ineffective desquamation of the scalp leads to the appearance of dandruff and is accompanied by dehydration that promotes irritation and itching.
In order to obtain an exfoliation that is gentle, physiological and with no adverse effects on the scalp, the natural active ingredient EXFOLACTIVE®, boosts the endogenous mechanisms of desquamation. Indeed, formulated at 0.5% in a lotion, it significantly stimulates the activity of KLK-5 (+74%) on the scalps of Caucasian volunteers.
Favor the equilibrium of the scalp
As a result of its original mechanism of action, EXFOLACTIVE® reduces the quantity of dandruff by 26.1%, at the same time as significantly boosting hydration of the scalp by 13.8% after only 5 days of application. These effects continue or even increase after 14 days of daily application, when a significant reduction of sensations of stinging and general discomfort is observed. All these effects were also perceived by volunteers.
