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.

    Game Changer

    This moisturizer brings much needed scalp irritation relief. It calms the itch. I use it right after a shampoo and before bed.

    I'm starting to wear black tops again!

    This oil is a God send since all other oils just feed the fungus! It's so necessary for me.

    calm scalp and beautiful curls to boot!

    I was so nervous that this product was going to be difficult to wash out and end up weighing down my hair, which leans a bit fine. I really thought the oil would sit on top even after double washing, but instead, my curls look the best they have in ages and my scalp is loving the treatment as well -- I've noticed less itching and a reduction in build up!
