Cradle cap is a frequent and harmless scalp condition that affects many babies during their first months of life.

Characterized by yellowish, greasy patches and flaking skin, it is often linked to excess sebum production and the presence of natural skin yeast.

While not painful or contagious, cradle cap can cause discomfort and concern for parents, if not properly addressed. That’s why daily care with gentle, specially formulated cosmetic products is key.

Using advanced products enriched with targeted active ingredients that help regulate sebum production, soothe the scalp, and support natural skin renewal can make a noticeable difference.

Peptizinc® is a natural, multifunctional active ingredient composed of zinc peptides combined with an exclusive blend of six botanical extracts, carefully selected for their purifying, soothing, and sebo-regulating properties. This powerful synergy targets the main factors responsible for conditions linked to oily skin imbalances - such as cradle cap.

Zinc peptides play a key role in controlling sebum production and reducing irritation, while the plant complex - rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents - works to calm the scalp, rebalance the skin’s microbiota, and gently purify without causing dryness or discomfort. Together, these components help regulate oil levels, prevent buildup, and support a healthy, flake-free scalp.
