Neutrogena T/Gel 2-in-1

Unclogs hair follicles

Another of our picks that’s anti-dandruff, this 2-in-1 uses salicylic acid to combat the flakes. Its purpose is to work on the outermost layer of skin, so flakes wash away, and it also promises to cleanse pores and prevent oil build-up. With a melon and jasmine scent, it’ll suit if you like a natural aroma.

Luxury choice
