Why our stylists rate it
From the Partners Hair team
Kérastase Spécifique Bain Vital Dermo-Calm 500ml is the salon-size version of Kérastase's lightweight soothing shampoo for sensitive scalps combined with normal-to-fine hair. Part of the Kérastase Spécifique scalp-care range. Same hypoallergenic, silicone-free, dermatologically tested formula as the 250ml — in a larger salon-economy bottle. The 'Vital' format is lighter than 'Riche' — designed for sensitive scalps where the hair is normal-to-fine and doesn't need extra weight.

Best for: sensitive, itchy, or reactive scalps with normal-to-fine hair; regular daily or every-other-day cleansing where Bain Riche would feel too heavy; customers committed to the Spécifique Dermo-Calm routine who want better value per ml; the cleansing step paired with Masque Hydra-Apaisant for weekly intensive scalp soothing.
Less suited to: sensitive scalp with dry, thicker hair (use Spécifique Bain Riche Dermo-Calm instead — creamier version, same range); sensitive scalp with dandruff (use Symbiose Bain Crème or Bain Pureté Anti-Pelliculaire); oily roots with dry ends (use Spécifique Bain Divalent and Argile Équilibrante); colour-treated hair primarily needing colour care (use Chroma Absolu); first-time Spécifique users (start with the 250ml).

Key actives: (identical to 250ml)
- Calophyllum (Tamanu) Oil — anti-inflammatory botanical oil; calms scalp irritation
- Glycerin — humectant; softens the scalp barrier
- Piroctone Olamine — antimicrobial; reduces itching
- Menthol derivative — cooling refresh on application
- Salicylic Acid — gentle BHA that balances the scalp surface

Benefits:
- Gently cleanses sensitive, reactive scalps without stripping
- Soothes irritation, itchiness, and feelings of tightness
- Lightweight finish — won't weigh fine-to-normal hair down
- Hypoallergenic, silicone-free, dermatologically tested
- Better per-ml value than the 250ml format

How to use: Apply to damp hair, emulsify, massage to activate micro-circulation, and rinse thoroughly. Follow with Masque Hydra-Apaisant on the lengths (or Cicaflash if hair is also colour-treated blonde).

Format: 500ml shampoo (salon-economy size).
