We often think about nourishing the lengths, repairing the ends or adding shine, but much less about taking care of the skin on which our hair grows. However, the scalp is directly involved in their balance: excess sebum, accumulation of styling products, pollution or even dandruff can quickly give the impression of heavy and dirty hair. Result: we use shampoo much more often than we would like.
It is precisely in this area that Unbottled has decided to work with its new Scalp Detox Mask. To be used before shampooing, this gentle exfoliating treatment promises to rid the roots of impurities while respecting the balance of the scalp. Its formula contains 98% ingredients of natural origin and notably combines upcycled lemon, nettle and PHA, complementary active ingredients to purify without stripping.
A root detox to space out shampoos
The principle is quite simple: rather than multiplying washes to try to get rid of roots which quickly re-grease, we start by offering the scalp a real deep clean. Upcycled lemon contributes to this purifying action, while nettle is known for its sebum-regulating properties. PHAs provide a new generation of gentle exfoliation to help eliminate dead cells and impurities accumulated on the surface of the scalp.
Used as a pre-shampoo, the mask helps to find cleaner and lighter roots, without that feeling of damaged scalp that certain purifying treatments can cause. And this is where the product becomes particularly interesting: by regulating excess sebum and eliminating residues that weigh down the roots, it would maintain this feeling of freshness for longer. What, in my case, easily save 3 to 4 days between two washes.
The little detail that changes everything: its perfume and its refillable jar
Another good point: the experience does not stop at the formula. The mask releases a natural scent with notes of sage and eucalyptus, particularly pleasant at the time of application. And unlike some detox treatments which give the impression of giving your scalp a real thorough cleaning, this one remains gentle enough to easily integrate into a regular routine. It is also formulated without silicones, mineral oils, palm oil or controversial preservatives.
Finally, Unbottled applies here an approach that is part of its DNA: the mask is offered in a recyclable and, above all, refillable aluminum pot. Once the product is finished, simply replace the refill rather than systematically repurchasing the container. THE
Unbottled Scalp Detox Mask is sold for $23.90 for 200 ml, while the refill allows you to prolong its use while limiting packaging.
