DERMA E Scalp Relief Rinse, 4 fl oz

DERMA E Scalp Relief Rinse is a pre-shampoo scalp-care step for buildup, with apple cider vinegar, exfoliating acids and cooling menthol. Its pointed applicator helps place the liquid along parted sections of the scalp. The pictured bottle contains 4 fl oz / 120 mL.

A rinse-out step for scalp buildup

The bottle highlights removing buildup and boosting shine. DERMA E describes apple cider vinegar as helping remove mineral deposits associated with hard-water use, while exfoliating acids help loosen dead skin and impurities.

Use this as a separate step before shampoo and conditioner, not as a substitute for either. It is not the small-volume Scalp Relief Treatment that is left on after washing.

Apple cider vinegar, acids and cooling menthol

The manufacturer's published ingredient list includes apple cider vinegar, glycolic acid, lactic acid and salicylic acid. It also lists panthenol, willow bark extract, tea tree leaf oil, menthol and glycerin, together with botanicals including burdock, bearberry, chamomile and neem.

These are selected ingredients, not a complete ingredient panel. No acid percentages or formula-specific Drug Facts have been verified here. Do not infer a medicated strength, disease-treatment claim or hair-regrowth benefit from the ingredient names.

How to use before shampooing

Section hair into small parts. Using the applicator, squeeze a generous amount directly along the scalp and massage in. Leave on for up to 15 minutes, then rinse hair thoroughly. Follow with shampoo and conditioner.

The directions do not establish a fixed weekly frequency or a measured dose per application. Follow your current bottle's directions and precautions rather than using the timing of the separate Scalp Relief Shampoo, Conditioner or leave-in Treatment.

Choosing and checking your scalp rinse

This format suits a routine where you want to rinse away a scalp-focused product before your usual wash. Menthol gives a cooling sensation; tea tree oil and botanical ingredients may matter when choosing products for sensitive skin.

Review the complete ingredient list and warnings on your current bottle, especially if you avoid exfoliating acids, tea tree oil or menthol. The 4 fl oz declaration is fluid volume and does not establish a fixed number of applications.
