How to use
Apply a small amount to baby’s scalp using clean fingertips. Massage gently in circular motions and leave for 15–20 minutes. Gently comb through with a soft baby brush to loosen flakes. Wash off with Gentle Baby Wash. Repeat 2–3 times per week as needed.
Storage
Store in a cool, dark place. Use within 12 months. No preservative required, anhydrous formula.
Safety
For external use only. Do not pick or forcefully remove flakes. If the scalp appears red, inflamed or infected, consult your GP before use. Contains fractionated coconut oil; fractionation removes almost all coconut protein. Patch test on a small area of skin 24 hours before first use, especially with any known coconut allergy or family history of allergy. Keep out of reach of children.
