The Awaken : Rosemary & Mint Scalp Reset Scrub

Why this exists

Most scalps carry a slow accumulation of styling product, dry shampoo, oil and pollution. Daily shampoos rarely reach it. The Awaken is a once-or-twice-weekly ritual that lifts that layer away, so volume, shine and the rest of your haircare can finally show through.

Inside the bottle

The key actives

01

Rosemary Leaf Oil

Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil

Long associated with a livelier, better-circulated scalp. Adds a cool, herbaceous lift on contact.

02

Peppermint Oil

Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil

Gives the cooling tingle and a sense of clarity at the root. Pairs naturally with rosemary.

03

Hydrolysed Keratin

Hydrolyzed Keratin

A protein fragment that helps support the look and feel of strands after deep exfoliation.

04

Gentle Cellulose Grains

Cellulose

A plant-derived physical exfoliant that softens with warm water, so it lifts buildup without scratching the scalp.

On the skin

A cool, lightly grainy cream that softens under warm water. It feels active without feeling harsh, and rinses without residue.

The application

How to layer this

  1. 1

    Wet the scalp

    In the shower, fully saturate hair and scalp with warm water.

  2. 2

    Work in slow circles

    Take a teaspoon onto fingertips and work into the scalp for one to two minutes. Focus on roots and the back of the head.

  3. 3

    Rinse and continue

    Rinse thoroughly, then shampoo and condition as usual.

  4. 4

    Once or twice a week

    Use as a reset, not a daily product. Pair with a calmer scalp during sensitive weeks.

What to expect

On the skin, over time

  1. Day 1

    Hair feels noticeably lighter at the root and shampoo lathers more easily.

  2. Week 1

    Volume and movement return after a single wash cycle. Styling holds longer between washes.

  3. Week 4

    Scalp feels more balanced overall. Hair looks shinier and feels less weighed down.

    Hair feels lighter from the first wash

    I used to feel like my scalp was always coated in something. After two uses, the roots feel cleaner and my hair sits with more volume. The smell is herbal and not too sweet.

    Replaced two products

    Replaced both my clarifying shampoo and my scalp serum. The cooling feeling is calming after a long day. Strands feel softer too.

    Good weekly reset

    Not something I want to do daily, but as a weekly ritual it really works. My styling lasts longer between washes now.

    Cooling and grounding

    The peppermint tingle is exactly what I needed at the end of a long week. Hair feels reset.

    Subtle but real

    I was sceptical at first. After a month, my hair holds shape better and feels less heavy. Will reorder.

In case you wondered

Frequently asked

How often should I use this?
Once or twice a week is enough for most scalps. More often if you use a lot of styling product, less often during a sensitive or dry week.
Is it safe on coloured hair?
Yes. The formula is colour-safe when used on the scalp and rinsed thoroughly.
Will it dry out my scalp?
No. It is designed to clear buildup without stripping. Follow with your usual conditioner on lengths.
Can I use it instead of shampoo?
It works best before shampoo. Use the scrub to clear buildup, then shampoo to wash.
