Cria Booster-Spray is a scalp spray for women over 40 experiencing hair thinning and scalp irritation related to menopause, and it harnesses the power of four simple but potent ingredients: sesame seed oil, lavender oil, organic plant-based alcohol, and jaborandi—an herb native to the Amazon rainforest. According to Cria, this minimal-ingredient formula was developed more than 25 years ago by the founder’s parents, a biochemist and a homeopathic physician, and now, it's coming to market. “We built this product around the idea that fewer, cleaner ingredients can still deliver results for women navigating hormonal changes,” said the brand.
This lightweight, non-greasy scalp spray is made to be applied directly to the scalp up to three times weekly, and rinsed with the brand's CriaPure shampoo and conditioner.
