We’re excited to share that Sphagnum Botanicals Psoriaid Shampoo has been recognized by the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) as one of the four best shampoos for scalp psoriasis.
The National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. It provides research-backed information, promotes awareness, and supports scientific advancements to help those living with the condition find safe and effective care.
Being featured by such a respected foundation is a huge honor for us — and an important recognition that a natural shampoo can deliver results strong enough to stand alongside medical-grade products.
Why Our Shampoo Is Different
While all four shampoos recommended by the National Psoriasis Foundation are effective, Sphagnum Botanicals Psoriaid Shampoo stands out as the only fully natural formula among them.
We are proud to be:
Free from SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate), parabens, and synthetic fragrances
Vegan and cruelty-free
Dermatologically tested for sensitive scalps
Our formula combines therapeutic peat mud and salicylic acid — two powerful ingredients known to gently exfoliate flakes, reduce itching, and calm irritation — with natural oils and vitamins that nourish the scalp.
Shampoo That Cares for Both Scalp and Hair
In the NPF article, it is mentioned:
4 Things to Remember
- Proper use of shampoo for psoriasis
- Shampoo for scalp psoriasis is not for hair
- Moisturize hair
- Consult a dermatologist
While that may be true for many medicated shampoos, ours is carefully formulated to do both.
Thanks to Panthenol (Provitamin B5) and Allantoin, our Psoriaid Shampoo not only helps relieve the symptoms of scalp psoriasis but also strengthens and conditions your hair. These ingredients work together to add softness, shine, and resilience from root to tip, leaving both your scalp and hair healthy, hydrated, and clean.
Pair It with Our Moisturizing Conditioner
For even better results, pair our shampoo with our Sphagnum Botanicals Conditioner, designed to deeply moisturize and smooth your hair without heaviness. Together, they provide the perfect balance of scalp relief and hair nourishment.
