If you've been dealing with an itchy, flaky, oily or sensitive scalp, choosing the right shampoo can be confusing.
Not all flakes are the same, and a flaky scalp doesn't always need a traditional dandruff shampoo. Before choosing your next shampoo, it's worth looking at the whole picture — how your scalp feels, how oily it gets and whether you're also experiencing itching or irritation.
So, could PropoRelief™ be right for your scalp?
PropoRelief™ Scalp Shampoo and Conditioner has been formulated specifically for itchy, flaky, oily and sensitive scalps.
It's designed to gently cleanse the scalp and hair while helping care for the scalp environment — without simply focusing on removing visible flakes.
The range combines carefully selected ingredients including:
- New Zealand Propolis
- Mānuka Honey
- Mānuka Oil
- Piroctone Olamine
- Peppermint
The shampoo is pH balanced at approximately 5–6 and is suitable for colour-treated hair.
It is also free from parabens, phthalates, dyes and synthetic fragrances.
Why these ingredients?
Every ingredient in PropoRelief™ has a purpose.
New Zealand Propolis is a a natural hive ingredient that has long been valued for its skin and scalp care properties. Known for its antifungal properties, it is a valuable ingredient for caring for scalps that are prone to imbalance.
Mānuka Honey helps care for and hydrate the scalp, while Mānuka Oil and Peppermint contribute to the refreshing feel of the range and support a healthy scalp environment.
Piroctone Olamine is included in the shampoo as part of the scientifically formulated blend, and is an ingredient with evidence supporting its use for scalps experiencing visible flakes.
Together, these ingredients create a targeted haircare range for people who are looking for more than just a basic shampoo.
Is PropoRelief™ right for you?
PropoRelief™ Scalp may be worth considering if your scalp is:
✓ Itchy
✓ Flaky
✓ Oily
✓ Sensitive
✓ Prone to visible flakes
If your scalp is mainly dry, tight and lacking moisture, you may prefer a more moisturising approach instead.
And if you have persistent, severe or worsening scalp symptoms, it's always best to seek advice from a healthcare professional.
How to use PropoRelief™ Scalp
