Purifying Solid Shampoo 

Organic Burdock, Spirulina, and Chicory Prebiotics – Zero Waste – Vegan & Made in Italy

A deep green bar that contains the purifying power of burdock and the energy of microalgae: balanced scalp and cleaner hair for longer.

The Purifying Solid Shampoo with Burdock and Spirulina by La Saponaria

La Saponaria's Purifying Solid Shampoo with Burdock and Spirulina is the strategic product for those seeking cosmetic prebiotics capable of nourishing and rebalancing the skin's microbiota. Its concentrated formula is based on three active ingredients: Burdock, the purifying root par excellence of European phytotherapy with documented sebum-regulating properties; Spirulina Maxima, a superfood microalgae rich in vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids; and Chicory Prebiotics (Inulin), which selectively nourish the scalp's beneficial bacteria, combating the microorganisms responsible for dandruff without altering the skin's natural flora. The formula is completed with hydrating Beetroot Amino Acids (Betaine), strengthening Linseed, a synergy of essential oils—Tea Tree, Sage, Crepe Mint, and Lavender—for a purifying balsamic note, and precious Shea (Butyrospermum Parkii) and Cocoa butters that give the bar nourishment and creaminess. Zero Waste packaging in recycled cardboard and biodegradable film: a 50g bar is equivalent to 300ml of traditional liquid shampoo, with a drastically reduced environmental footprint.
 
 
 

The roots of this Solid Shampoo are deep in tradition

Burdock (Arctium Lappa) is one of the most esteemed plants in medieval monastic medicine: Saint Hildegard of Bingen dedicated entire chapters of her "Physica" to it in the 12th century, recommending its use to "purify the blood and soften the skin," while the monks of the Abbey of Saint-Hildegarde cultivated it in their herb gardens to prepare capillary decoctions. In ancient China, niúbàng (the Chinese name for burdock) was a key ingredient in traditional medicine for the treatment of skin conditions. Spirulina, on the other hand, is a gift from the pre-Columbian world: the Aztecs collected it from Lake Texcoco and dried it into blue-green cakes called "tecuitlatl"—a term that the conquistador Bernal Díaz del Castillo recorded in his diaries in 1521 as "water bread" sold at the Tlatelolco market. Rediscovered by Western science in the 1960s thanks to French botanists on the Lake Chad expedition, it is now cultivated worldwide as a highly nutritious superfood. Saponaria combines these two legacies—medieval European herbalism and pre-Columbian aquatic wisdom—in a contemporary, zero-waste product.
 
 
 

Choosing Purifying Solid Shampoo means taking care of yourself

La Saponaria's Purifying Burdock and Spirulina Solid Shampoo is a prebiotic revolution applied to hair cosmetics. While conventional shampoos simply cleanse, this product selectively nourishes the beneficial skin microbiota thanks to Chicory Inulin—a natural prebiotic that rebalances the scalp flora, reducing the proliferation of Malassezia furfur, the yeast implicated in dandruff formation. Burdock provides additional inulin, polyphenols, and unsaturated fatty acids with astringent and sebum-regulating properties, ideal for scalps prone to hyperseborrhea. Spirulina Maxima is an extraordinary source of phycocyanin (an antioxidant pigment), beta-carotene, B vitamins, iron, and zinc—minerals essential for keratin synthesis and hair bulb health. Tea Tree has documented antimicrobial properties, particularly useful for mild seborrheic dermatitis. A conscious choice for those who want to take care of their skin with a dermo-balancing and planet-friendly approach.
 
 
 

How to Best Use: Purifying Solid Shampoo with Burdock and Spirulina

• PREBIOTIC ANTI-DANDRUFF AND SEBUM-REGULATING TREATMENT — Rub the bar through wet hair using circular motions on the scalp, or massage it between your hands first to create a lather. Leave it on for 1-2 minutes to allow the chicory prebiotics to work on the microbiota, then rinse thoroughly. To enhance the anti-dandruff effect, alternate use with Organic Extra Virgin Shampoo with an anti-inflammatory nature. Complete the routine with the Solid Restructuring Conditioner to close the cuticles.
• COMPLETE SOLID ZERO PLASTIC WELLNESS KIT — Create a totally solid and plastic-free cosmetic kit by combining this shampoo with Organic solid anti-blemish facial cleanser for skincare and Organic Helichrysum Solid Shower Foam for the body. The future of cosmetics is here, now, in concentrated form.
