Alongside its signature Annurcatin™ anti-hairfall system (apple extract, biotin, amino acids), MOEV also runs a separate Scalp Clarifying line, of which this 500ml shampoo is the SKU Adilsons currently carries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetailer and brand-spotlight sourcing describes the brand's Annurcatin line reaching the top of Olive Young's haircare category ranking and selling over 800,000 units in its first year, alongside a partnership with Korean actress Han Ye-seul as brand ambassador — we are citing these as brand\/retailer-reported market signals for the brand overall, not independently audited figures, and not specific to this Scalp Clarifying SKU.
