About the ingredients

• Coal Tar: Coal tar is a common ingredient in dry scalp or dry skin treatments. Dry scalp conditions are often caused by an excess of hard, scaly skin. The coal tar in Capasal breaks down this skin and thus makes the scalp softer and less scaly. In addition, coal tar helps reduce itching and has an antiseptic effect, which helps to calm fungal and microbial infections that can afflict psoriasis sufferers.
• Salicylic acid: The salicylic acid in Capasal works in a similar way to the coal tar, breaking down hard, scaly skin.
• Coconut oil: Coconut oil is a natural moisturiser and soothes the skin on the scalp.

Express Chemist recommend Capasal for the treatment of a number of dry scalp conditions including eczema, dermatitis, dandruff, psoriasis and cradle cap.
