Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Anti-Itch Shampoo, 8 oz — Cooling Relief & Dandruff Control

Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Shampoo is a pyrithione zinc–based cleansing formula that soothes itching, reduces flaking, and helps restore scalp moisture with an invigorating peppermint finish.

When dandruff, dryness, or seborrheic scalp issues make your scalp uncomfortable, a targeted shampoo can bring immediate relief while supporting healthier-looking hair. This 8-ounce Therapeutics Anti-Itch Shampoo blends pyrithione zinc with aloe and peppermint to gently cleanse, calm irritation, and help control visible flakes without stripping natural moisture. The scent is refreshing and the formula is designed for repeat use as part of a therapeutic scalp routine.

How quickly will I feel cooling or itch relief?

Many users report an immediate cooling sensation from the peppermint and a noticeable reduction in itching after the first wash. Pyrithione zinc works to address the flaking that often accompanies those sensations, while aloe soothes the skin.

• Cooling peppermint offers fast sensory relief.
• Pyrithione zinc helps reduce flake-producing scalp conditions.
• Aloe calms and hydrates to reduce tightness and dryness.

Will this shampoo help control dandruff and visible flakes?

The product is formulated with pyrithione zinc, an ingredient commonly used to manage flaking and dandruff symptoms. Regular use as directed can help keep visible flakes under control while supporting a balanced scalp environment.

• Pyrithione zinc helps reduce recurring flaking.
• Gentle cleansing minimizes further irritation.
• Two-step lathering routine improves active ingredient contact time.

How should I use it for best results?

Use on wet hair, emulsify a quarter-sized amount in your hands, lather over the scalp, rinse, and repeat as needed. The second application helps the active ingredients reach the scalp and improve their effectiveness.

• Step 1: Wet hair thoroughly.
• Step 2: Emulsify a quarter-size amount in palms.
• Step 3: Massage into scalp, rinse, repeat if necessary.

Is this suitable for daily or frequent use?

The formula is designed for regular use when managing scalp conditions, but frequency depends on individual needs and sensitivity. If you have very sensitive skin, start with less frequent washes and increase as tolerated.

• Safe for routine therapeutic use for many users.
• Adjust frequency based on scalp response.
• Follow with your preferred conditioner or scalp treatment as needed.
