CP-1 Ginger Purifying Shampoo 500ml

At 500ml this is the size the ginger shampoo is really meant to be used in, because the thing that makes it work — piroctone olamine, a well-established cosmetic anti-dandruff agent active against the yeast associated with flaking — only pays off over weeks of repeated washing. The supporting formula is ginger root oil at a declared 600ppm with ginger root extract, honey, propolis and royal jelly extracts, argan, olive and jojoba oils, allantoin and laurylpyridinium chloride, cleansing on disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate and cocamidopropyl betaine with no SLS or SLES. This is the bottle for a salon bowl, a pharmacy shelf facing and a household that is actually working through a flaking problem.

Key Benefits

• Piroctone Olamine, a recognised cosmetic anti-dandruff active, at the volume needed to sustain a real course of washes rather than a trial
• Zingiber Officinale Root Oil at a declared 600ppm plus Root Extract give the line its warming, purifying character
• Laurylpyridinium Chloride adds quaternary scalp conditioning through the cleanse
• Honey, Propolis and Royal Jelly Extracts contribute bee-derived humectant and conditioning support
• Argan Kernel, Olive Fruit and Jojoba Seed Oils stop a purifying wash from leaving the lengths stripped
• Allantoin helps keep the scalp comfortable after clarifying
• Sulfosuccinate and olefin sulfonate cleansing, no SLS or SLES
• 500ml is the commercial size: lowest cost per wash for salon backbar and head-spa service, a strong pharmacy and beauty-retail facing for a problem-solving shampoo, and the natural reorder after a client tries the 100ml — it also cartons cleanly as a duo with the 500ml ginger conditioner

When to Use

First step of every wash day, before conditioner and before any leave-on scalp tonic. Stock and recommend it for active dandruff and visible flaking, itchy or congested scalps, oiliness that returns within a day, and scalps that sit under a cap, helmet or scarf in heat and humidity. Because anti-dandruff cleansing is a course rather than a single wash, the usage pattern is three to four washes a week while flaking is active and then once or twice weekly for maintenance — which is exactly why the 500ml rather than the travel size belongs in a salon scalp-treatment menu, a pharmacy recommendation and a repeat-purchase retail slot. Follow with the ginger conditioner on the lengths.

How to Use

Wet the hair and scalp fully, apply to the scalp rather than the lengths, and massage in sections with the fingertips for one to two minutes so the piroctone olamine has real contact time. Let the foam rinse down through the hair and rinse completely — residue is a common cause of continuing itch. Double-wash when the scalp is heavily oiled or loaded with styling product. Use three to four times weekly while flaking is active, then once or twice weekly to maintain. In a salon, it is the cleansing step before a scalp scaler or head-spa treatment; at the bowl, dose to hair density rather than by habit. Follow with conditioner on mid-lengths and ends only.

Precautions

For external use on hair and scalp only. Honey, propolis and royal jelly are present: the product cannot be positioned as vegan, and anyone with a bee-product, propolis or pollen allergy should avoid it. Propolis is a recognised contact sensitiser and this formula goes directly onto scalp skin, so salons running it at the backbar across many clients should ask before applying. Ginger root oil is a warming essential oil — a mild tingle is normal, but keep it off broken, sunburned or freshly chemically treated scalp. Piroctone olamine is a regulated cosmetic active with maximum permitted use levels in several jurisdictions, so verify the concentration on your carton against local requirements before registering or listing the product at volume. Declared fragrance allergens include benzyl salicylate, limonene and hexyl cinnamal, relevant for EU-aligned labeling. This is cosmetic scalp care addressing the appearance of flaking, not a treatment for seborrhoeic dermatitis, psoriasis or any diagnosed scalp disease — persistent, painful or severe flaking should be referred to a doctor. Avoid eye contact and rinse thoroughly with water if it occurs. Patch test before first full use and discontinue if itching, redness or irritation develops. No sun-sensitivity precaution applies — the formula contains no AHA, BHA, retinol or vitamin C.
