RediKit Shampoo 100 ml

Ketoconazole, Biotin, Zinc Pyrithione with Argon Oil, Castor Oil, Aloe Vera Shampoo benefits

A shampoo containing ketoconazole, biotin, zinc pyrithione, argon oil, castor oil, and aloe Vera is formulated to deliver a comprehensive approach to scalp health and hair quality

It combines potent antifungal and antibacterial agents with nourishing and moisturizing botanicals to address issues ranging from dandruff to dryness. 

Benefits of active ingredients

Ketoconazole: As a powerful antifungal ingredient, ketoconazole targets the fungus Malassezia, a primary cause of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. By inhibiting the fungus's growth, it reduces flaking, itching, and inflammation on the scalp. Some studies also suggest it may help reduce hair loss associated with these conditions.

Zinc pyrithione (ZPTO): This ingredient works with ketoconazole to reduce the growth of fungi and bacteria on the scalp. It is an effective antimicrobial and antifungal agent that helps control flakiness and soothe irritation. Like ketoconazole, ZPTO can help control sebum (oil) production, which can contribute to dandruff.

Biotin: Also known as Vitamin B7, biotin supports the production of keratin, a key structural protein in hair. In shampoos, it helps strengthen hair follicles, which can make hair appear thicker and reduce breakage.

Argan oil: Rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, this oil deeply moisturizes and conditions the hair. It helps to increase hair elasticity, minimize frizz, add shine, and protect hair from environmental damage. Its anti-inflammatory properties can also help soothe a dry or irritated scalp.

Castor oil: While scientific evidence for promoting hair growth is mixed, anecdotal reports suggest castor oil can moisturize the scalp and hair. It contains ricinoleic acid, a fatty acid with anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties that may help soothe scalp infections and fight dandruff.

Aloe vera: The enzymes in aloe vera can help remove dead skin cells that clog hair follicles, and its anti-inflammatory properties can soothe an itchy, irritated scalp. Aloe vera is also a natural humectant, meaning it helps hair and skin retain moisture. 

Who can benefit from this shampoo?

A shampoo with this combination of ingredients can be particularly beneficial for people experiencing:

Dandruff and flakiness: The primary benefit is the effective treatment and prevention of common causes of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.

Itchy and irritated scalp: The antifungal and soothing properties of the ingredients work to calm an inflamed and itchy scalp.

Dry or damaged hair: The presence of argan oil, castor oil, and aloe vera adds moisturizing and conditioning benefits to repair and hydrate the hair shaft.

Hair thinning or breakage: Biotin helps strengthen hair, while the improved scalp health from ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione can create a better environment for growth and potentially reduce hair loss. 

How to use

For best results, most medicated shampoos should be used according to specific instructions. Typically, this involves:

Wetting the hair and massaging the shampoo into the scalp for a few minutes to allow the active ingredients to penetrate.

Following with a thorough rinse.

Using the shampoo 2–3 times a week, alternating with a gentler, hydrating shampoo if desired, as some medicated ingredients can cause dryness with daily use
