Coconut Oil Makes Your Dandruff Worse

The fungus causing your dandruff feeds on oils. Its main fuel source is the sebum made by your pores, but adding extra oils (like coconut) is like pouring gas on the fire.

Even though coconut oil is typically antifungal, it’s also full of lauric acid which strengthens the Malassezia fungus.

Why MCT Oil Is Safe

MCT (medium chain triglyceride) oil is made by distilling coconuts to remove the longer chain fatty acids - which feed the Malassezia fungus - while harnessing caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) acid, which the fungus can’t use as fuel.

Tip: Some MCT oils still contain lauric acid (C12) which will feed the fungus. Ours is always Malassezia Safe.

Starve the Fungus to Free Your Scalp

Most skin and hair care products are made with oils that feed the fungus irritating your scalp. If you want to free yourself from flakes and itching, you must stop the fungus from taking over.

Extra Care for Your Scalp & Hair

The tea tree and rosemary infused into every drop have been shown to:

  1. +

    Optimize follicle and scalp health

  2. +

    Help protect and prevent fungal spread

  3. +

    Relieve the effects of dry skin and flare-ups

  4. +

    Help slow down premature graying with continued use

  5. +

    Improve overall scalp & hair health

Note: Essential oils don’t contain any fatty acids, so they won’t feed the Malassezia fungus.

Keeping it Zen

We practice ingredient minimalism. Our goal is to keep the list of ingredients humble while formulating products more effective than anything else. That’s why you won’t find parabens, sulfates, fragrances, or hard-to-pronounce chemicals. Those are the opposite of peaceful.

How to Use It

  • 1

    Before getting your good nights rest, apply a generous amount of moisturizer to your scalp.

  • 2

    Relax while massaging in the nourishing formula.

  • 3

    In the morning, wash it out with a Malassezia-safe shampoo and enjoy a peaceful scalp all day long.

  • Note: If you shower at night, follow the same steps as above but allow the moisturizer to absorb into your scalp for at least two hours before washing.

    For textured hair, this scalp moisturizer also works great as a leave-in since the ingredients will naturally absorb into your skin. Especially for protective styles! Simply apply it 2-3x a week (or daily if you’d like) to keep your scalp happy and healthy.

    Love the essential oils in it

    Other MCT oil products I’ve used in the past can oxidize or degrade quickly and leave a bad smell, and I never really integrated MCT oil into my routine because of it. I like that this one is mixed with essential oils that preserve it, along with having their own beneficial functions—no weird smells! I also use it for oil cleansing to help remove makeup or sunscreen and follow with a normal cleanser.

    Great option

    So this is definitely sticky, but I love using it for the periphery of my hairline and behind my ears where my dermatitis usually flakes. It is an easy product to grab, when I don’t want to trigger more flakes by using traditional moisturizers that have ingredients that affect my scalp.
