Roycederm Tea Tree Antifungal Shampoo: Folliculitis Shampoo For Dry Scalp, Dandruff, And Itchy Scalp - Medicated Clarifying With Oil, Paraben & Sulfate Free

Using Roycederm as a skin cleanser is an off-label use, but I noticed that Roycederm has 3% Salicylic Acid, a higher concentration than the best-known brand name of shampoos advertised as using Salicylic Acid. Salicylic Acid is most commonly used for acne, but per Medlineplus: "(Salicylic Acid)...treats other skin conditions by softening and loosening dry, scaly, or thickened skin so that it falls off or can be removed easily." Read the entire article in MedlinePlus (it's a government website; National Institute of Health) and/or check with your physician, because there are contraindications. However, wow. I have had excellent results using this as an "underboob" cleanser, as well as any other skin folds where itchy yeast overgrowth is a problem. I still have to use an antifungal cream, and I use a skin barrier like diaper rash paste with zinc in the summer, but this is a soothing and effective cleanser for places where skin folds over other skin, causing itching, odor, slipperiness, and scaling. I use the Roycederm only on the areas that need it and leave it on while I continue my shampooing and general body cleansing. I rinse off the Roycederm as the last step of showering. It's important to massage the Roycederm onto your wet skin using fingers only. Applying it with a washcloth or anything else scrubby might damage already inflamed skin. I accidentally learned that if I wash my underarms with Roycederm I can go without deodorant. Go cautiously if you decide to try this. This is effective at my level of activity and without using deodorant over it. If I ran track or was effected by upsetting conditions that cause "stress sweat", I wouldn't want to rely on it. Also, I wouldn't want to put deodorant over the area I've washed with the Roycederm because both products have active ingredients and I have no idea what the reaction might be. For my specific conditions, it works to retard underarm odor and I was delighted and surprised to make this discovery. So: please check my information with your physician for using this as the off-label use, but know that this is a great shampoo. My husband has stopped scratching, and his hair is soft and glossy.

This shampoo is great, smells good and actually works to relieve dry scalp and hair is left quite vibrant and shiny! I'm a 37 year old guy with long hair a little past shoulders, too..

So far, it has worked really well! It cleans without overdrying & addresses scalp concerns with tea tree oil & salicylic acid. Hair feels soft & bouncy after use. Love it!

I bought this shampoo thinking it was like the shower gel but it's not ...this has salicylic acid

Best shampoo I have ever used. When using 3 times per week flakes are gone and your scalp feels great. I’ll never buy another shampoo again.
