ritual #1 scalp revival

The mixture of cold weather and heaters at full temperature can cause dandruff (annoying, we know). But how do you protect your hair from getting dry in winter? If you’re struggling with an itchy, dry scalp, introducing a scalp oil might be the remedy you’re missing.

The reset pink charcoal scalp cleansing oil is an oil-to-foam pre-wash formula that fully refreshes the scalp, banishing all the nasty impurities that build up day in, day out.

How to use: Massage the oil directly onto unwashed hair, focusing on the scalp. Wait 3-5 minutes before washing, and rinse thoroughly.
