LA BIOSTHETIQUE Moisture Control Scalp Lotion RT 100ml

A 100ml leave-on lotion for scalps that sweat — through training, heat, helmets, long days. It is a scalp product rather than a hair product: it goes onto the skin along the partings and stays there, so the lengths are left alone.

What's in it

• Agarikon extract — a larch fungus extract La Biosthétique uses to moderate perspiration without over-drying the skin.
• Niacinamide (vitamin B3) — supports the skin's barrier and helps keep oil in check.
• Black pepper, manuka and magnolia — the botanical complex in the formula.
• Lipoamino acid from oat — gentle, and leaves the scalp's acid mantle intact.

How to use it

After shampooing, part the hair and apply along the parting, then shift the parting across and repeat. Massage in gently and leave it in — it is not rinsed. For a more intensive treatment, apply it and leave it on overnight.

Worth knowing

Free from parabens, silicones and sulphates. It pairs with the Moisture Control Shampoo, which does the same job at the cleansing step. This is cosmetic scalp care — a scalp that stays sore, itchy or flaking, or hair shedding suddenly, is worth showing a GP or dermatologist.
