About
Designed especially for people with a sensitive scalp, this gentle shampoo cleanses and conditions your hair while preserving your scalp’s natural defences.
NART: 69653-01450-25A gentle shampoo for a sensitive scalp
Healthy skin has a pH of 4.5 to 5.5, making it slightly acidic. This natural acidity protects your skin from harmful bacteria and other substances, so when this balance is disturbed – for example, by heat, cold, diseases, cosmetics or stress – a sensitive scalp can result. Eucerin DermoCapillaire pH5 MILD SHAMPOO is specifically designed to maintain your skin’s natural pH level, and effectively cleanses your scalp and hair to prevent dryness and irritation. It washes away dirt, pollen and allergens, and gives your hair a healthy shine and a soft, supple feeling.
How to Use
Massage into damp hair.
Leave to soak before rinsing thoroughly.
Suitable for daily use.

- pH5 Citrate BufferLearn More
Skin’s surface is covered by a protective acid mantle which gives it a mildly acidic pH. This pH plays an important role in skin condition and is key to skin’s protective barrier. It neutralizes alkaline-based aggressors (such as harsh surfactants), supports the essential process of shedding dead skin cells (known as desquamation) and creates the optimal environment in which skin’s natural flora can thrive.
When skin’s pH alters its barrier function is compromised. Water loss increases and skin dries out making it more susceptible to external irritants and sensitivity.
The Eucerin pH Balance System contains pH5 Citrate Buffer to restore and support skin’s optimal pH. This helps to strengthen skin’s barrier function, protect its natural defences and make skin less sensitive.
