Love the scalp cream. However, the face serum made my face sticky. I haven't tried the other samples yet.

The cream is ok i feel like La Roche-Posay is a better moisturizer and way better price wise.

I love the scalp cream. Had to shave my head after the first two rounds of chemo. It’s very sensitive and this cream is soothing and moisturizing. I highly recommend it. I also plan to buy the hair regrowth spray when my chemo is finished. Thank you for making these products.

My daughter had a medulloblastoma when she was 12 years old. She is now 42, and her scalp still itches and hurts to this day! I bought this for her so it may help her. She has told me that it helps her head after shampooing her hair, and it is very soothing to her! Thank you for a great product

Customer photo review of Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I bought this a few days before starting chemo. About three weeks in my hair started falling out and it was a very painful experience. I ended up shaving my hair way down just to ease some of the discomfort. I started using this twice a day, and I cannot sleep through the night without the pain waking me up. This product is a godsend.

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I am happily using this chemo scalp moisturizer on my head daily. Before I had received it, my scalp was very itchy and kind of flaky. Hopefully I won't need to order more. I guess it depends on how much more chemotherapy that I will need.

The scalp cream was extra helpful as I healed sensitive skin and follicle irritation during chemo. It brings relief and I carry it with me everywhere!

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I like the scalp cream, it soothes the "tightness" that I sometimes feel especially now that I am bald.

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

After losing my hair to chemo, it wasn’t until radiation that an RN offered samples of the Dermavitality products with a coupon. AMAZING PRODUCTS!! Finally have relief from the dryness/itchiness on my head without it leaving lotion marks on my head coverings from regular lotion. I’m also using the body lotion on my radiation area and am very pleased with this product as well.

The scalp care cream is amazing! I put it on morning and evening and I no longer have itchy, dry scalp. Highly recommend it!

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

When my hair fell out, my head hurt and had little sores everywhere. I started using the cream and they went away along with the discomfort. The other day I was really tired and didn’t put any on in the evening or morning and my head began to itch. Realizing what I had done I put some on and immediately the itching stopped. I purchased the whole gift set and love eve item in it.

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I lost my hair during chemotherapy. Everything was irritating my scalp. I haven’t been able to use the spray yet since I am still undergoing chemo but the lotion has been a lifesaver! No more irritations from my hats or my pillow case! I will be ordering more lotion and I can’t wait to try the spray to help my hair grow! Thank you for this product. It is truly amazing!

This is so cooling when your head is dry or ichy due to chemo therapy (or any other reason). Highly recommend

Customer photo review of Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I’ve lost all of my hair now while on chemo and my scalp itches and burns with little red bumps. The soothing scalp cream really helped. I was nervous. It would make me break out in pimples, but it hasn’t at all. I rub it into my scalp at night and put on a fresh cap. It’s been wonderful. Thank you!

Best Moisturizer for Chemo Scalp

I bought your product by doing research on the best products for people who are going through Kemo and radiation treatments. Your products came up as the best. I bought these for my wife who is just starting with both of these, kemo 1st and then radiation. The reviews I read were all so positive and being invented by a nurse and a person who went through cancer treatment herself i felt safe on my purchases. My wife is a manager at my families healthfood store and has researched everything about her cancer and what she can do to beat the disease via diet, vitamins, and healthy natural products to help with the treatments and their side affects that people have to endure through this process. I also take on the research part and what ever else I can do for her. This is truly an example of what those 2 words that I told her years ago truly mean, " I Do ". Thank you for your product and helping my wife.
