Works for
ExfoliationSalicylic acid, AllantoinWorks well
“Made using Salicylic Acid, the shampoo encourages renewal, helping to resurface your scalp to reduce the likelihood of irritation.”
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: salicylic acid.
CleansingSodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, Cocamidopropyl betaine + 1 moreCleanses gently
“Refresh and revitalise your scalp with DCL’s shampoo that’s been specially formulated to care for flaky, itchy skin.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, cocamidopropylamine oxide, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate

Product summary
"MOR - Little Luxuries Bohemienne Hand Cream" has a good moisturizing formula.
Ingredient callouts
- An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 1.40% - 1.70%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
- In addition, this moisturizer contains Allantoin (1.10% - 1.40%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
