How we choose ingredients

The questions an ingredient has to answer before it goes into a product.

How we choose ingredients
Answer first

An ingredient goes into a Folli Series or Dr. M product only if there is a clear reason for it, published studies on the ingredient itself, a track record of skin tolerance, and it suits a hot, humid climate. We describe those studies honestly as research on the ingredient, not proof that a finished product will work for you.

The questions

Why is it here? What do studies on it show, and how strong are they? Is it gentle enough for daily use?

Climate and comfort

Light textures that don't leave the scalp greasy in Malaysian heat.

What we avoid

Ingredients added only for marketing, and claims we can't support.

Questions

Can I see the ingredient list?

Yes, it is on the box and on each product page.

Are your products tested on people?

Ask us about the tolerance testing for a specific product.
