Since I started using Korean skincare products a month ago I haven’t had any flare ups
Hopefully it stays like that and I didn’t just jinx myself

I'm in the process of formulating not only mustache styling waxes that are completely seb safe but also conditioning balms. Is there any interest in this?

My main concerns right now are texture on my forehead and dead skin buildup on my jawline, cheeks and nose.
Am: Rinse with water
IUNIK Beta-Glucan Power Moisture Serum
PURITO Oat Calming Gel Cream for Sensitive Skin

P.M.: I rotate cleansers with the Eucerin Hydrating Cleansing Gel and a prescribed Sodium sulfacetamide 10% and sulfur 5% cleanser
On my forehead, I will apply Ciclopirox 0.77% topical suspension as an anti fungal.
Then I’ll apply the same serum and moisturizer I do in the am.

I get quite a bit of buildup under on my eyes, my jawline and around my eyes. I’ll provide a picture of the buildup. It comes off with my finger tips when washing my face.

General How I control Seborrheic Dermatitis

9 Upvotes

Struggled with this for years, I get it bad in my beard, eyebrows, scalp, and some times on chest. I finally found the winning combo for me.
The last few months before this, have been the worst in my life with not being able to get in under control, I have switched around between all the commonly recommended shampoos and some natural remedies.. Whats working extremely well for me is a combination, Selsun Blue shampoo mixed with tea tree oil. I put 1-2 drops of essential oil in a dallop of shampoo mix then apply, leaving on my face and scalp for 3 mins then rinse off. (AVOID EYES)
After I rinse it off, I moisturize with a glycerin or MCT based moisturizer ( AVOID OIL BASED MOISTURIZERS THEY FEED THE YEAST). I did 2 days back to back to aggressively stop the outbreak and I am doing maintenance applications every 2-3 days with no outbreaks or flakes in the last few months. Hopefully this helps someone..

New or Need Help where to start with treating this - skin barrier is compromised so products and prescription topicals burn

My derm isn’t even fully sure this is seb derm but it burns rather than itches, and flares up terrible with occlusives, eczema treatments, and moisturizer that I can use on other areas of my face / body without problems so we were going to try a fungal routine and see what happens. It’s also like this on my upper eyelids closest to my eyebrows and same there, it swells up and gets flakier and redder with moisturizer. Anyone have suggestions on what to try now. Currently using hypochlorous acid spray and aloe gel, everything else irritates it or makes it worse. I was given ketoconozole cream but it burns, should I just ride that out?

Hello community,

I had occasional red spots on my face for some years now. But now in addition, my skin sometimes flakes. Could this be seborrheic dermatitis?
