CP-1 TEA TREE MINT SHAMPOO 500ml

Hot climates, hijab and cap wear, hard water and daily heat styling all push the same problem to the front of the pharmacy counter: a scalp that turns oily within a day, itches, and flakes. CP-1 built this 500ml cleanser around that complaint rather than around the hair lengths. Tea tree leaf water stands in for most of the water phase, climbazole targets the yeast activity behind flaking, and menthol delivers the cooling finish MENA customers associate with a scalp product actually working. The 500ml bottle is the volume that makes sense for a salon backbar or a repeat pharmacy purchase.

Key Benefits

• Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water replaces part of the water base, giving the formula its purifying, antimicrobial-leaning character
• Climbazole is an established anti-dandruff active that addresses the Malassezia yeast linked to scalp flaking and itch
• Menthol gives an immediate cooling, de-stressing sensation on a hot, irritated scalp
• Allantoin soothes and conditions reactive, over-washed scalp skin
• Rosemary, sage, Roman chamomile and white mulberry leaf extracts add a botanical soothing and antioxidant layer
• Cleanses with olefin sulfonate, betaine, sulfosuccinate and lauryl glucoside surfactants rather than SLS, so sebum comes off without the squeaky over-stripping that triggers rebound oiliness
• Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride keeps lengths combable despite the deep-cleansing base

When to Use

First step of the wash, on every wash day for oily or congested scalps, or two to three times weekly alternating with a gentler shampoo for scalps that are flaky but dry. It suits customers reporting itch, visible flakes, fast sebum return, product buildup from styling wax or dry shampoo, or the specific discomfort of a scalp kept covered in heat. In a salon it works as the cleansing step before a scalp scaler or head spa treatment. Because climbazole is a functional anti-dandruff active, keep it in a scalp-care or medicated-shampoo block on the shelf rather than in general hair care.

How to Use

Wet hair and scalp thoroughly with lukewarm water. Dispense roughly a ten-dirham-coin amount for mid-length hair, emulsify between the palms, then apply directly to the scalp in sections rather than piling it on the ends. Massage with fingertips, not nails, for sixty to ninety seconds so the tea tree and climbazole get contact time, let the foam rinse down through the lengths, then rinse until the water runs clear. A second short wash is only needed when removing heavy styling product. Follow with a conditioner on mid-lengths and ends only, keeping it off the scalp.

Precautions

Menthol produces a strong cold-tingle that can sting on a scalp with open scratches, fresh colour or active eczema — advise customers to avoid use for a day or two after chemical services. Keep out of the eyes; the menthol and surfactants make accidental contact genuinely uncomfortable, so rinse immediately and thoroughly with water. Climbazole is a functional antifungal active, so check your market's registration requirements before importing it as a general cosmetic. The formula is fragranced and contains botanical extracts, so patch test behind the ear before first full use on sensitive or allergy-prone customers, and discontinue if redness, burning or persistent itching develops. Not intended for use on children's scalps without guidance.
