Key actives

10Mentholactive

Menthol is the cooling compound in mint. It acts on the nerve receptor that also answers to cold, which is why skin feels cool without any change in temperature. On this shampoo's own ingredient list it is named tenth.

All products with Menthol

24Niacinamideactive

Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. The panel names it twenty-fourth on this shampoo's list, beside Menthol.

All products with Niacinamide

44Madecassosideactive

Madecassoside is the centella triterpene most associated with the look of redness, and the one brands lead with in cica products. It is water soluble and stable, so it appears in essences as readily as in creams. It is named forty-fourth on this shampoo's list, alongside Menthol.

All products with Madecassoside

89Asiaticosideactive

Asiaticoside is one of the four active triterpenes isolated from centella and the most studied of them. Korean formulas name it separately when they want to show which fraction of the plant they standardised. It is named eighty-ninth on this shampoo's list, alongside Menthol.

All products with Asiaticoside

95Caffeineactive

Caffeine constricts small blood vessels near the surface, which is why eye products use it for the look of puffiness and shadow. It is water soluble and works only while it is on the skin. The panel names it ninety-fifth on this shampoo's list, beside Menthol.

All products with Caffeine

Dr.FORHAIR Bio-3 Folligen Shampoo 500ml

How it works

The Bio-3 Folligen 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 Menthol, named tenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Madecassoside and Asiaticoside, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Menthol stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the shampoo format rather than by the list alone. Dr.FORHAIR sells this Menthol shampoo in Korea, and this is that version.

How to use

  1. Use it as the cleansing step, worked into a lather on wet hair and scalp, left briefly, then rinsed thoroughly.

Worth knowing

  • Patch test this shampoo on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Menthol on the list.
  • This list names Citronellol, Fragrance and Geraniol, 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.

  • Centella can make your skin appear more hydrated, plumper and healthier.

    Samantha Stein, PA-CDermatology physician assistant, Cleveland Clinic
  • It has also been proven that caffeine stimulates lipolysis, which Lupo et al postulated may contribute to improvements in lower eyelid sagging and puffiness.

  • 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.
