A luxe way to treat an itchy scalp or dandruff? Now that’s worthy of an Allure Best of Beauty Award. Maria Nila Head & Hair Heal Shampoo and Conditioner is an Allure Best of Beauty-winning duo that smells great—not at all like the usual dandruff shampoo!—and soothes dry, itchy scalps with aloe while tackling flakes with piroctone olamine (an antifungal). It is sweet relief for dry scalps, no matter the cause—time spent at the beach, product overload, or dandruff—and it helps treat flakiness while it hydrates strands. It’s great for straight hair, wavy hair, and curls: “I’ve struggled with flakes for years—it’s a combo of dryness and what seems to be seasonal dandruff,” Allure’s contributing commerce editor Deanna Pai, who has 2B and 2C curls, has said in her review of the duo. “I use this to keep it under control, and even keep a travel-size set in my dopp kit since I cannot go without it. I love that it calms my scalp and dials down itchiness, but doesn’t leave my curls flat, dull, or otherwise thirsty.” It’s fine to use the treatment daily—and it’s such a pleasure, you’ll want to!
