Editor's Take
Goop gets the balance right: Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate cleans with creamy restraint, while Moringa oil keeps this scalp scrub from feeling like punishment.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 7.8 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 6.8 / 10
- Clean Standards: 9.4 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 10.0 / 10
The Verdict
The sulfate-free base gives a thorough scalp cleanse without relying on harsh detergents. Moringa and rosehip oils provide enough lipid support to reduce that stripped, squeaky aftermath common to scrubs. The plant-derived profile is excellent, though the essential oils and disclosed fragrance allergens may not suit a reactive scalp. A credible pick for occasional buildup removal, with better conditioning than most scalp scrubs.
