Suggested Formulation Using CP Oat Avenanthramides
This milky lotion is designed to be applied all over the scalp area with a fine applicator nozzle. The product should then be massaged into the scalp and preferably left in over night before shampooing out. It can be used during the day to control men’s hair, where it will add shine and some light styling properties.
Ceapro Oat Avenanthramide provides the skin soothing properties, making the product particularly good for dry, itchy or inflamed scalps. It should also help to reduce redness, where for instance the scalp has been exposed to excessive sunlight. It could, thus, be useful for soothing sunburnt male bald patches!
The additional of natural hair growth, moisturising and elasticity promoting active ingredients make this formulation particularly multi-functional.
