What to expect
Clean, without the squeak.
Most shampoos clean by stripping. This one cleans and leaves the softness in.
Clean, never stripped
Hair rinses clean and still feels soft, not squeaky or tight.
Less dryness
Lengths feel softer and look smoother from root to tip.
A comfortable scalp
A gentle, scalp-first clean you can use every time you wash.
The science
Korean ferment. Patented scalp science.
Most shampoos treat the scalp as something to scrub. CULISE treats it as where healthy-looking hair begins. Probiotic ferments and our Scalp Microbiome Patented Technology, built from strains found on healthy scalps, care for the scalp, while rice water and hyaluronic acid keep the lengths soft.

Inside the bottle
What’s inside the lather.

Rice water
A Korean beauty classic, for softness and shine.

Probiotic ferments
Lactobacillus, lactococcus and saccharomyces ferments for a scalp-first clean.

Hyaluronic acid
Holds water in the hair, so it rinses soft, not dry.

Argan oil
A light touch of oil for smoothness and shine.

Turmeric root
A botanical extract that rounds out the scalp-first formula.
Why it’s different
Most shampoos make you choose.
Strong ones strip. Gentle ones leave hair weighed down. You shouldn’t have to pick.
| Harsh | Mild | CULISE | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clean | Deep | Light | Deep |

| Scalp feels | Tight | Coated | Comfortable |
