Cosmetic anti-dandruff products can be easily characterized by the use of three ingredients: zinc pyrithione, climbazole and piroctone-olamine. All three actives show anti-fungal efficacy, targetting Malassezia. At the same time all have been established actives on the personal care ingredients market for decades. Besides of a couple of multifunctionals, no major anti-dandruff active has been launched recently. Serving the demand for new green chemistries, Symrise presents an entirely new anti-dandruff technology, relying on an innovative mode of action. In the footsteps of climbazole (Crinipan® AD), the next generation plant derived anti-dandruff active will be presented.
