Vatika Lemon Dandruff Guard Shampoo for Dandruff Control & Fresh Scalp 400ml
Lemon does two useful things in a dandruff shampoo, cutting through excess oil and leaving the scalp feeling genuinely clean afterwards. This one pairs that with a proper anti-dandruff active, so it is doing more than smelling fresh. Gentle enough for regular washing.
Zinc pyrithione is the anti-dandruff ingredient. Lemon fruit extract acts as a natural astringent, balancing oil production and lifting dead skin from the scalp, with tea tree leaf oil and neem leaf extract alongside it. Menthol supplies the cooling hit, and dimethiconol and polyquaternium-10 condition so hair combs out smooth.
What it does
- Targets dandruff flakes from the first wash
- Soothes an irritated scalp and calms itching
- Purifies and reduces excess oil for better scalp balance
- Leaves hair light and fresh rather than heavy
- Restores shine and manageability
How to use it
Wet the hair through with warm water. Work a small amount into the wet scalp and hair with your fingertips until it lathers, concentrating on the scalp where flakes gather. Rinse thoroughly, and finish with cooler water if you want the cuticle to lie flat. Repeat if you need to, then condition, keeping it off the scalp if yours runs oily.
For flaky, itchy or oily scalps, used as often as you wash.

Application tips
Warm water first, since it helps the lather spread. Take a modest amount, split it between the front and back of the head, and massage the scalp for a good thirty seconds with the pads of your fingers.
Rinse, then go again if you have been using a lot of product. Conditioner on the lengths only, and two or three washes a week is the right rhythm.
Results
The cold prickle at the scalp arrives within seconds, and menthol is what causes it.
Underneath that, the lemon extract cuts the oil that makes a scalp feel heavy by day two, tea tree and neem add their own freshness, and zinc pyrithione does the work it is in there for. Hair dries light rather than lank, and dimethiconol leaves enough slip for a comb to go through easily.
