Desert Essence Tea Tree Replenishing Shampoo, 12 fl oz

Desert Essence Tea Tree Replenishing Shampoo combines tea tree oil, peppermint and yucca in a rinse-out formula that washes away impurities and leaves hair looking shiny. Its minty scent and cooling sensation offer a refreshing wash-day experience. The pictured bottle contains 12 fl oz / 375 mL.

Tea tree cleansing with a minty finish

Australian tea tree leaf oil joins peppermint, eucalyptus, blue cypress and menthol in this botanical shampoo. Yucca and prickly pear cactus extracts round out the formula. Choose it for a fresh-feeling cleanse, rather than as a medicated dandruff treatment or hair-growth product.

The essential oils give this shampoo its aromatic character; it is not an unscented formula.

What to know about the formula

The published ingredient list includes coco-glucoside and sodium coco-sulfate as cleansing ingredients, along with hydrolyzed wheat protein and plant-derived glycerin. Sodium coco-sulfate means this is not a sulfate-free shampoo, and the presence of wheat protein should be considered when checking ingredients against personal sensitivities.

This is the original Tea Tree Replenishing Shampoo, not the brand's Lemon Tea Tree or Dry Scalp Care formula. Their ingredients and directions are different.

How to use and important precautions

Apply a quarter-sized amount to wet hair, lather and rinse. Repeat if necessary.

Manufacturer warnings: Avoid contact with eyes. Do not use on color-treated hair. Check the current bottle for its complete directions and precautions before use. This is a rinse-out shampoo, not a leave-in scalp treatment.
