Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this shampoo's own ingredient list it is named nineteenth.
Salicylic Acidexfoliant
It loosens the dead cells that block pores and is used for the look of congested, oily skin. It is named tenth on this shampoo's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Ceramide NPbarrier lipid
Ceramide NP is the most used cosmetic ceramide, the same class of lipid that makes up roughly half the mortar between cells in the outer layer of skin. Added to a cream it slots into that structure, which is why ceramide formulas feel less leaky rather than merely greasy. The panel names it seventy-first on this shampoo's list, beside Niacinamide.
Hydrolyzed Collagenprotein
Hydrolyzed Collagen is collagen broken into fragments small enough to dissolve in water. It cannot become collagen in skin; what it does is hold water at the surface and leave a smooth, conditioned film. It is named twenty-first on this shampoo's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Hydrolyzed Keratinprotein
Hydrolyzed Keratin is keratin, the protein hair and nails are built from, cut into fragments small enough to dissolve. In a formula it is a humectant and a smoothing film former. The panel names it twenty-second on this shampoo's list, beside Niacinamide.
How to use
- Lather into wet hair and scalp, massage, then rinse thoroughly before conditioner.
Where does this shampoo go in my routine?
In place of your usual shampoo, on hair wet all the way through. Anything thinner than a shampoo goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Niacinamide and not three changes at once.
Does this shampoo contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Benzyl Salicylate, Fragrance and Hexyl Cinnamal. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this shampoo is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Salicylic Acid, Ceramide NP and Hydrolyzed Collagen. The order they are printed in on this shampoo's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Hydrolyzed Keratin, Hydrolyzed Pea Protein and Chlorella Vulgaris Extract.

How it works
The Chlorella Better Root Relaxing Shampoo is a 500ml shampoo, used in place of your usual shampoo, on hair wet all the way through. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named nineteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Salicylic Acid, Ceramide NP and Hydrolyzed Collagen, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the shampoo format rather than by the list alone. Daleaf sells this Niacinamide shampoo in Korea, and this is that version.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this shampoo on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
- This list names Benzyl Salicylate, Fragrance and Hexyl Cinnamal, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
- Citric Acid and Salicylic Acid on this list makes this shampoo an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.

BHAs like salicylic acid get really deep into the pores, whereas the water-soluble ones don't go as deep.
Samantha Stein, PA-CDermatology physician assistant, Cleveland Clinic Ceramides are part fatty acid and part amino acid and are able to be the grout that keeps the building blocks of the skin together and functioning as a barrier between the inside and outside world.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
