Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Hair & Scalp Treatment 5oz
Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Hair & Scalp Treatment 5oz is an advanced daily scalp moisturiser and anti-itch treatment formulated to alleviate dry, itchy scalp and control flaking caused by conditions such as dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. This rich, emollient-based treatment delivers targeted relief directly to the scalp while conditioning the hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and manageable. Ideal for those with chronic scalp irritation, dryness, or sensitivity, it is a trusted solution for the UK's natural and textured hair community.
Key Benefits for Natural, Curly and Coily Hair
The Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Hair & Scalp Treatment 5oz provides immediate, long-lasting relief from scalp itching and discomfort. Its gentle daily-use formula is enriched with emollients that condition and moisturise the scalp and hair simultaneously, reducing the dryness that triggers the itch-scratch cycle. With consistent use, flaking is visibly reduced, and the scalp feels calmer, more balanced, and healthier overall.
The rich emollients in this treatment work to add natural shine to the hair while nourishing the scalp with every application. Unlike heavy grease-based products that sit on top of the scalp and cause further build-up, this treatment is formulated to be light enough for daily use while still delivering the moisture and relief that dry, irritated scalps need. It is particularly effective for those who experience tight, uncomfortable scalps due to seasonal dryness, hard water, or chemical processing.
Peppermint oil stimulates the scalp while alleviating discomfort, creating a refreshing, invigorating sensation that signals relief to the scalp instantly. For those with natural hair types 3A through 4C who suffer from scalp dryness between wash days, this treatment provides targeted care exactly where it is needed most, making it an indispensable part of any scalp health regimen.
Hero Ingredients and What They Do
White Petrolatum and Paraffin Wax form the occlusive base of this treatment, creating a protective barrier on the scalp that seals in moisture and prevents transepidermal water loss. This is especially beneficial for those with chronic scalp dryness, as it ensures that the scalp remains hydrated throughout the day. Menthol provides the signature cooling and soothing sensation that delivers instant itch relief, while Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice calms inflammation and nourishes the scalp with hydrating phytonutrients.
Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil complements the menthol by providing additional cooling action and mild antiseptic properties, helping to maintain a clean scalp environment. Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) acts as a powerful antioxidant that protects scalp cells from oxidative stress while supporting overall scalp health. Isopropyl Myristate acts as a light emollient that helps the formula spread easily across the scalp without leaving a heavy, greasy residue, making it comfortable for all-day wear under any hairstyle.
How to Use
Part hair into sections to expose the scalp. Apply a small, fingertip-sized portion of Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Hair & Scalp Treatment 5oz directly to the scalp along each parting. Repeat this process until the entire scalp is covered, using a gentle massaging motion to work the product into the scalp surface. Use daily or as needed to maintain relief from itching and dryness. For best results, apply to a clean scalp after shampooing and conditioning, or use between wash days to refresh and soothe the scalp without the need for a full wash. Can be used under protective styles or wigs for ongoing scalp comfort.
Who Is This Hair & Scalp Treatment For?
Design Essentials Peppermint & Aloe Therapeutics Anti-Itch Hair & Scalp Treatment 5oz is perfect for anyone who suffers from a dry, itchy, or flaking scalp, including those with dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis. It is suitable for all hair types from 2A to 4C, including relaxed, natural, coily, and protective styles. It is especially beneficial for those in the UK who experience seasonal scalp dryness, as well as those who use heavy styling products that can cause scalp build-up and irritation over time.
