Many people have dry scalp and dandruff in winter. The best moisturizer is available cheaply at the drugstore.
It's winter and the heating is running at full speed in sub-zero temperatures. And that affects my skin. Because as soon as it gets cooler outside, it becomes dry and flaky. I can get sensitive areas like elbows and shins under control with a rich cream - but not my scalp.
The dry skin on the head then becomes noticeable with slight itching and, above all, dandruff. That's why I started looking for a solution. Instead of dandruff shampoo, the drugstore now also offers care products for dry scalps.
This drugstore product moisturizes the scalp
If you suffer from dry scalp in winter, you should use one instead of dandruff shampoo (or in addition to an anti-dandruff shampoo).Scalp serum* set. Such a product is already available in the drugstore for little money.
Similar to a facial serum, it moisturizes the skin and can reduce visible flakes when used regularly. At Rossmann there is e.g. For example, the “Derma X Pro Leave-in Scalp Serum” from head & shoulders costs just under 6 euros.

Practical: Thanks to the thin applicator, you can apply the serum to the scalp, part by part. The product can also be used on wet hair after shampooing as well as on dry hair.
However, you should not overdo it and apply the serum in moderation. The product contains alcohol. It helps deliver the active ingredients to the scalp without leaving a greasy feeling and evaporates when applied.
Therefore, test whether you tolerate the ingredients and, if in doubt, seek dermatological advice to find out which products are best for your skin's individual needs.

An important note at the end:The causes of dry skin are varied. They range from environmental factors such as dry air to insufficient fluid intake to intolerance to certain care products. But it can also be genetically determined. Certain skin diseases can also be the reason for dry skin.
If you have persistent or severe skin problems, it is therefore advisable to consult a dermatologist. He or she can help determine the exact cause of the dry skin and recommend appropriate treatment.
