What is Neutrogena T/Gel Sensitive Scalp Shampoo?

Neutrogena T/Gel Shampoo is a new formula that has been dermatologically tested to effectively treat dandruff while remaining gentle on sensitive skin.

It contains both salicylic acid and piroctone olamine to help break down and remove the build-up of dead skin cells that lead to a dry, flaky irritated scalp. It also soothes and calms tight, itchy skin, leaving your scalp feeling more comfortable.

Neutrogena T/Gel is manufactured by Johnson and Johnson and is sold as a 150 ml bottle. Designed for daily use, Neutrogena T/Gel is applied directly to the scalp allowing it to get to work from the very first wash.
