the packaging: i bought this together with the hair loss toner. the hair loss toner comes in a box, but i completely forgot about this one. i can't find the box, so i guess it doesn't come in a box. the gel comes in a white plastic squeeze tube like a toothpaste. it has white-blue combination label. i think the whole scalp/dandruff line has blue-white combination. there's description at the back in indonesian, as well as the ingredients list. it has spout to dispense the product out. 

the scent: probably because it contains lavender oil, so it smells really nice. a bit fragrant but not too much. i don't mind anyway since i'll be washing my hair after putting it on my scalp.

the product: it's a transparent gel. the spout makes it easier to dispense the product on my scalp. the direction tells us to put it on scalp and massage it and let it dry for five minutes before rinsing it. and that's exactly what i do. i put it on my scalp, especially on area where i feel itchy or i can see some dandruff on that area and then massage it well. i usually do other things and then proceed with washing it off then shampooing my hair. 

the result: i've been using this for about two weeks. since i exercise every day, i wash my hair every two days. and i've been using this every time i wash my hair. on my first try, i was glad that this had cooling sensation. back then, i hadn't washed my hair for almost 3 days since we didn't have enough fresh, clean water to wash my hair (our water supply was stopped because there was a problem in our home area and it took awhile to take care of it) and it was a bit hot since it hasn't rained for two days so the cooling sensation was really soothing for my angry and greasy scalp. after washing it off, there's no residue left behind. really easy to use. after the first use, i can totally feel it helps with the itchiness. it subsides quite significantly. though it didn't remove all the dandruff on my first try. but after using it regularly for two weeks, i can't even see any dandruff now. maybe if my hair really greasy and dirty, i can see some dandruff but it's only on a small area. and the itchiness is gone too. 

i'm very pleased with my purchase. i was torn between the gel or the serum, but now i'm glad i bought the gel. actually i want to force my husband to use it also, but he's too lazy to use it himself but he always washes his hair without letting me know in the first place, so i have no chance to make him try it. anyway, if you have problem with scalp, like itchiness and dandruff, you should try this gel. it does work. i might dial back the frequency since i don't see or feel any problem after using this regularly for two weeks, but definitely will repurchase to keep it in my stash. price is reasonable, but this one comes in 30 g. i don't have larger area to cover, so i don't use much product so far. but if you have larger area to cover, you might run the product faster. just keep that in mind.
