CitriVive
Holistic scalp care active
Description
CitriVive™ is a natural active derived from the fermentation of citrus substrates. It was developed for a holistic approach to scalp health, simultaneously targeting dandruff, redness, excess sebum, and impairment of the scalp barrier.
Its efficacy against Malassezia furfur helps reduce dandruff and break the dandruff cycle, with visible results from the early stages of use. Clinical studies also show a significant reduction in sebum production, along with strengthening of the scalp barrier through a measured decrease in transepidermal water loss (TEWL). CitriVive™ respects the balance of the scalp microbiome, preserving overall microbial diversity while selectively addressing imbalances associated with dandruff-related scalp disorders.
INCI: Pseudomonas Putida/ (Grapefruit/ Lemon/ Orange) Peel Oil Ferment Extract Filtrate
