Indulge Your Scalp: EPIS Launches Revolutionary Sorbet Head Scrubs

Personalized Haircare Just Got a “Melty” Makeover with Vitamin-Infused Delights

EPIS, a beauty innovator based in Mino City, Gifu Prefecture, is set to transform at-home hair rituals with the launch of its new “EPIS Melty Vitamin Sorbet Head Scrub” line. Available in two distinct types—Melty Mint and Melty Citrus—these unique head scrubs promise a refreshing, sorbet-like texture that melts into the scalp, delivering targeted care for various hair and scalp concerns. The products will see a nationwide release in mid-April 2026, following an exclusive pre-sale at Loft stores across Japan and on the Loft online store, which began on March 1, 2026.

Unveiling the Innovation: Why a Sorbet Head Scrub?

Addressing the common yet diverse challenges of scalp greasiness, dryness, and hair damage that often fluctuate with seasons and lifestyles, EPIS embarked on a mission to create a product that offers both efficacy and an enjoyable experience. The result is a head scrub designed to provide salon-quality special care from the comfort of your home, focusing on a delightful texture and meticulously selected ingredients.

Discover Your Perfect Match: Melty Mint vs. Melty Citrus

For Oily Scalp & Refreshing Cleanse: Melty Mint

The “Melty Mint” variant is formulated for individuals struggling with excess sebum, stickiness, and scalp odor. It aims to thoroughly cleanse the scalp of impurities and pore-clogging dirt, resetting it to an ideal condition for healthy hair growth. Key ingredients include sea silt, known for its ability to absorb excess oil and impurities, and tea tree leaf oil, which contributes to a clean and comfortable scalp sensation with its refreshing aroma. Each 200g tube is priced at ¥2,100 (¥2,310 including tax).

For Damaged & Dry Hair: Melty Citrus

Conversely, the “Melty Citrus” scrub is crafted for those battling hair damage, dryness, and frizz. This formulation focuses on nourishing a dry scalp while deeply repairing the hair from within, promoting supple, manageable strands from root to tip. Enriched with keratin and collagen, it works to repair damaged hair and infuse the scalp with moisture, leading to smooth, shiny hair that feels like a post-salon treatment. Each 200g tube is also priced at ¥2,100 (¥2,310 including tax).

The EPIS Difference: Crafting a Superior Haircare Experience

EPIS has integrated several unique features into its Melty Vitamin Sorbet Head Scrubs to ensure a truly luxurious and effective treatment:

1. Bursting Vitamin E Capsules for Beautiful Hair: The most distinctive feature of these scrubs is the inclusion of vitamin E capsules. These capsules burst upon contact with the scalp, delivering concentrated vitamin E to deeply nourish and restore shine, leaving hair silky smooth.

   

2. Organic & Botanical Power for Hair and Scalp: The scrubs are luxuriously blended with five carefully selected organic ingredients, including argania spinosa kernel oil and camellia seed oil, alongside seven botanical extracts such as dog rose fruit extract. This potent combination deeply penetrates dry scalp and hair, imparting a natural luster and moisture from within.

3. 7-Free Formula for Sensitive Skin: Prioritizing scalp health, the formula is free from seven common irritants: synthetic fragrances, parabens, mineral oil, synthetic colorants, ethanol, sulfates, and UV absorbers, making it gentle for sensitive scalps.

4. 100% Natural Essential Oil Fragrance: Eschewing synthetic fragrances, the products are scented exclusively with 100% natural essential oils extracted from plants. This creates a calming and sophisticated aromatherapy experience that fills your bathroom.

5. Smart Tube Design for Hygiene and Convenience: Breaking away from traditional jar packaging, which can be unhygienic and cumbersome in the shower, EPIS adopted a smart tube design. This ensures the product remains uncontaminated and is easy to use even with wet hands, allowing for hygienic use until the very last drop.

   

How to Elevate Your Routine: Weekly Special Care

These head scrubs are designed as a weekly special treatment, used once or twice before your regular shampoo to optimize scalp health.

Usage Steps:

1. Gently Apply to Scalp: After pre-washing your hair and scalp with warm water, take an appropriate amount (about a 500-yen coin size, adjust for hair length) into your hands, lightly drain excess water, and gently apply it all over your scalp.
2. Rinse Thoroughly & Shampoo: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all the scrub particles are gone. Then, proceed with your usual shampoo.

Tip: For an even more refreshing sensation, consider leaving the scrub on for 1-2 minutes after massaging before rinsing.
