Key Ingredients

We blended this unique oil complex from a precise selection of Chinese herbs long used to help maintain a clear complexion.


Huang Bai (Amur Cork Tree Bark)

A Chinese herbal bark known for its potent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects – it soothes angry, “heaty” skin conditions (like eczema or acne) and protects the skin with antioxidant power.

Ku Shen (Sophora Flavescens Root Extract)

An herbal extract that harnesses natural anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic qualities to soothe irritated, itchy skin and reduce redness, while providing antioxidant support for a healthy complexion.

Dictamnus Dasycarpus Root Extract

An extract from the root bark of Dictamnus dasycarpus (known as Bai Xian Pi), traditionally used to treat skin problems. It has powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties, helping to soothe irritated, itchy skin and clear heat and toxins for a healthier complexion.

The Routine

  1. Massage a small amount of Softening Scalp Shampoo over a wet scalp, beard and hair. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. For best results, leave on shampoo for 5-10 minutes before rinsing.
  2. Follow with your usual conditioner on mid-lengths and ends of hair, if desired. Rinse.
  3. For best results, use with Softening Scalp Tincture. Massage a small amount into whole scalp or affected area, leave on overnight and rinse or shampoo the following morning.
  4. Follow by massaging a little Nourishing Hair & Scalp Oil into the scalp for a softer, smoother finish. Style hair as normal or, if leaving overnight, apply shower cap to prevent product transfer

Patch test: Prior to trying any new topical, we recommend you carry out a patch test. Apply a small amount close to the area of intended use.Please note: Natural pigments may stain fabrics, skin and hair.

The best shampoo ever!

I bought the shampoo and scalp oil hoping it might help my unbearably itchy scalp and it has been the best thing I’ve ever tried. I also use the skin balancing cream and will continue buying products from this company - they are superb.

Cleared my 15+ year psoriasis

After 15 years and numerous treatments (prescribed and over-the-counter) for my unrelenting scalp psoriasis - I have found a product that works. This is the first time for over 15 years that I can wear black, the first time that I haven't had persistent flakes, the first time I can put my hair up and know that people won't see my sore, red neck and scalp, the first time I am not constantly itching my head and worrying about flakes. It's wonderful. It took 4 months to totally clear - getting better and better over every day/week. Now I am flake and itch free. And I realise I'm not even thinking about it. I've been using the shampoo and tincture for 5 months now and have just ordered my 3rd bottle - though I still have shampoo left. If £45 seems steep - it works out at 1 bottle every 3 months. That's a cost I can cope with. Excellent product.
