The Kerastase Symbiose Purifying Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is a luxury, salon-grade anti-dandruff shampoo formulated for oily, sensitive scalps prone to dandruff. This silicone-free and sulfate-free purifying formula pairs piroctone olamine with salicylic acid to lift away visible flakes, balance excess oil and leave the scalp feeling clean, calm and comfortable, all wrapped in the signature Kerastase mandarin and blood orange fragrance.

Why This Shampoo Works

Dandruff on an oily scalp usually comes from a mix of excess sebum and a faster-than-normal build-up of dead skin cells. This purifying formula works with the scalp rather than stripping it. A gentle, breathable lather cleanses clogged pores and removes visible flakes without weighing hair down, so the scalp feels rebalanced and purified and the hair looks healthier. Kerastase reports up to 7 weeks of anti-dandruff efficacy based on clinical testing.

Ideal For

This shampoo is ideal for anyone with an oily, sensitive scalp that is prone to visible dandruff and flakes but who still wants a luxurious, salon-quality experience. It suits those looking for a sulfate-free and silicone-free anti-dandruff option in the UAE, and pairs well with the wider Symbiose range. For a persistent or medically diagnosed scalp condition, it is best to consult a dermatologist.

Symbiose combines targeted actives with a caring, sulfate-free cleansing base:

• Piroctone Olamine: a well-known anti-dandruff active that helps target the yeast associated with dandruff and slows the build-up of flakes• Salicylic Acid (BHA): gently exfoliates the scalp to lift away dead skin cells and visible flakes

• Sulfate-free cleansing system (sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, cocamidopropyl betaine): cleanses gently without stripping the hair fibre• Signature fragrance: a fresh mandarin and blood orange scent created by French perfumers

The formula is free from silicones, sulfates and parabens, so it suits sensitive scalps that react to harsher shampoos.

Get the most from this purifying shampoo with a simple routine:

1. Apply to wet hair and add a little water to build a rich lather.2. Massage gently across the scalp and through the lengths, then emulsify.

3. Rinse thoroughly. During a peak of dandruff it can be used daily; follow with a Symbiose conditioner or serum for best results.
