Perfect for sensitive scalps !
Tightness, painful hair roots, itching... Like the skin on your face or body, the scalp can be sensitive. It is subjected to numerous daily aggressions that make it more fragile. Under the action of certain factors such as pollution or stress, the scalp develops increased sensitivity. In addition to itching, a feeling of dryness and a slight pain to the touch, dandruff can also appear. This is because the physiological flora of the scalp changes and micro-organisms multiply. The cells of the scalp then renew themselves more quickly and dandruff forms.
For a pampered and soothed scalp, this solid shampoo is really perfect ! Chaulmoogra oil and peony powder fight dandruff and help calm irritated, damaged and flaky skin.
Add French lavender grosso essential oil to relieve itching and relaxing cedar oil for a relaxed scalp! They also provide a fresh, plant-based fragrance that is very pleasant in the shower.

What is solid cosmetics ?
Just like its long-established liquid counterpart, the purpose of solid cosmetics is to clean. The difference is that it comes in the form of a bar of soap. The advantages are numerous :
1 - Very effective : Yes, solid cosmetics are just as effective as liquid cosmetics, or even more so. As there is hardly any water in this solid cosmetic, the concentration of active ingredients is much stronger.
2 - A healthy product : The Lamazuna brand is committed to using the most natural formulas possible. The active tensides used in their solid cosmetics are perfectly adapted and non-aggressive. Sodium coco isethionate (a derivative of coconut oil) offers both excellent foaming and cleansing power, as well as good distribution on your skin.
3 - More economical : Although the purchase price is a little higher than a classic liquid cosmetic, you will save money over time because a solid cosmetic lasts longer.
4 - More ecological : Using a solid cosmetic is an ecological act. The manufacture of solid cosmetics reduces the impact on the environment by using recyclable cardboard packaging and reducing water consumption. You are helping to reduce the use of plastic and therefore helping to reduce the amount of waste associated with your consumption. This is a real commitment to preserving the planet.
5 - Ease of transport : Solid cosmetics are easy and convenient to transport. They are small and light, perfect for travelling with you! Carrying a bottle of liquid is always a challenge. And, if you're flying, there's the question of how much liquid you can carry. With a solid shampoo, you won't have this problem. All you need is a soap box to carry your cosmetics without fear.
Its main active ingredients
Peony powder (Paeonia officinalis root powder)
Its large red, purple or white flowers make the peony a plant mainly cultivated for its ornamental qualities. Thanks to the presence of paeniflorin in its roots, peony powder offers very interesting anti-itching properties, ideal for irritated scalps. This powder is a particularly suitable ingredient for calming itchy skin and scalps, especially those with dandruff.
Chaulmoogra vegetable oil (Hydnocarpus laurifolia seed oil)
Chaulmoogra has long been used in traditional Asian medicine, particularly in India and China for the treatment of leprosy and skin problems. In cosmetics, Chaulmoogra oil is traditionally recommended for its beneficial effects on skin problems (atopic skin, acne-prone skin, etc.). Chaulmoogra oil has important antibacterial and anti-mycobacterial properties. Thanks to its unsaturated and cyclopentenic fatty acids (hydnocarpic, chaulmoogric and gorlic), which are very specific, it helps to fight against dandruff. It soothes irritated, damaged and flaky skin.
Lavandin essential oil (Lavandula hybrida oil)
Lavandin is a hybrid plant of lavender, but it is in fact generally the plant that makes up the large purple clumps in the fields of the Drôme! Lavandin (Lavandula X hybrida) is a hybrid between true lavender, which grows at higher altitudes, and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia spica), which grows at lower altitudes, below 400m. The scent of lavandin is inseparable from Provence, its landscapes, cosmetics, perfumes and soaps. Lavandin is appreciated for its purifying scent. Calming and relaxing, Lavandin's fresh scent is perfect for relieving stress and nervousness. It is used in this solid shampoo for its calming, relaxing and healing properties.
Instructions for use
Wet and apply with your hands or directly on your scalp. It is not necessary to apply shampoo to your ends. Then massage the scalp to generate foam, rinse well and you're done !
Anecdote about the product
This solid shampoo cannot be labelled COSMOS Organic for a good reason: our conviction to avoid absolutely all sulphated surfactants. Sulphated surfactants, even organic ones, are irritating to your scalp and have negative impacts on the environment, as documented by Cosmébio in October 2020. On the other hand, other types of surfactants are not, in our opinion, suitable for solid formulations or for effective and pleasant to use shampoos with a pH that respects your acidic scalp !

Back and explanations on the other ingredients
French organic sunflower oil (Helianthus annuus seed oil) : nourishes and protects the hair. We preferred it to coconut oil because of its French supply.
The surfactant (sodium cocoyl isethionate) : cleans hair without damaging the scalp. It is of vegetable origin but its manufacturing process involves a chemical synthesis stage, so it cannot be labelled organic. It is our choice to avoid sulphated surfactants that are aggressive for your hair and the environment, as well as surfactants that are deceptive in their cleaning powers.
The secondary surfactant (coco-glucoside) : boosts the foam provided by sodium cocoyl isethionate.
Palmitic acid, stearic acid : fatty acids derived from olive oil which enable the formulation of a solid shampoo, they provide hold and durability to the product.
Vitamin E (tocopherol, helianthus anuus seed oil) : an antioxidant of plant origin that prevents vegetable oils from going rancid. It is contained in sunflower oil. It may seem anecdotal as an ingredient, but it plays an important role in the durability of the product.
Cedrus atlantica bark oil : fights against hair loss, it is also relaxing and comforting. Adds a light woody note to the shampoo.
How do you recognise a sensitive scalp ?
Signs of a sensitive scalp can include a painful, irritated, tingling, itchy feeling and redness. If your symptoms are severe, your scalp may be hyper-reactive or hypersensitive.
Whether your case is mild or severe, it's important to think about the factors that may be triggering this sensitivity in your scalp. These signs can be caused by an unbalanced diet or the use of the wrong shampoo. Similarly, exposure to certain weather conditions, pollution or stress can cause scalp sensitivity.
Consider these and other factors to determine why your skin is so sensitive and what is the best course of action to take to treat the problem.
Shelf life
This product can be used for 12 months after the first use.
Packaging
70 ml solid shampoo. Packaged in a recyclable cardboard box. Size: 7 cm in diameter. It is more relevant to speak in mL rather than in grams. Our solid cosmetics are all handmade, they are cast in a mould of a certain volume, the density of our solids can vary from one batch to another because it depends on the hygrometry, the heat in the room, the density of the raw material batches. If the density varies, the weight varies, whereas the volume does not! A question of precision, therefore :)
Precautions for use
To guarantee a long life for this solid shampoo, as for all our other solids, keep it dry in a storage jar or in a Pochouette between each use. With essential oils. For external use only, avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not use in case of allergy to one of the components. Not recommended for pregnant and breast-feeding women or children under 12 years old.
Find out more about the Lamazuna brand
Since its inception, Lamazuna has been a green cosmetics brand. The story begins in 2010 with a click of the founder, Laëtitia Van de Walle, which will be a precursor and founder for the brand. At that time, Laëtitia decided to replace her classic cotton pads with washable microfibre make-up remover wipes. From 5 disposable make-up removal pads per day, she went to zero and thus began to reduce her impact on the environment. And she didn't stop there...
As the years went by, the new Lamazuna eco-friendly product ranges continued to develop. The menstrual cup, the Oriculi, toothbrushes with refillable heads, not forgetting of course all the solid zero waste cosmetics ! Lamazuna's goal since the beginning is to offer green and zero waste beauty products for an ever more committed beauty !
In order to respect their values, they have imposed constraints on the manufacture of their products. They must all be :
- With a zero waste objective
- Vegan
- Made as locally as possible (they are gradually moving towards 100% French production)
- Capacity
- 70 ml
- Type of hair
- A problems
- Type of hair
- Sensitive
- Profit
- Soothing
