Try Guava leave soap with head N Shoulder shampoo, it has work for friend of mine.

im suffering same problem and i'm using Polytar shampoo..

Hi,

This problem still happen now after several years.
Doctor also can not cure it.
Now just wash face everyday to clean the oil and then apply moisturizer to control it.
Already spread to my chest.

Anyone have some further solution for this problem?

Thanks a lot..

Have u try rub the effected area with garlic?

Sounds like seb derm. Did u ever get a specialist to confirm it?

If it's really SD, it tends to be chronic and long-term.
Mine is on and off for many yrs already.
I got both redness and flakes , always at the usual spots where sebum production is high - eyebrows, T-zone, nose folds

Sorry to say, if it does not itch, sounds like SD, for which KL's best dermatologists have no cure. All the above lotions, moisturizers, dandruff soaps etc. will not stop it, maybe even feed it and make it worse, especially powerful steroids that damage the skin. Google SD. There are sites where people exchange info.

Try tiny amounts of things to soothe the redness and lessen the appearance of flakes. Start by washing only with sea-salt solution, cheap supermarket stuff is fine. You might want to hide red spots with BB-cream.

Not yet try this.
Any specific type of garlic?

Yeah, already consult with skin specialist several years ago and cant cure it. Skin specialist only said this is not cause by bacteria and ask me wash face with the soap cream that he gave and apply moisturiser after wash. Have been doing this for years and just manage to control it and cant cure it.
Now it spread to chest.

For mine one it is itchy.
If i do not wash my face for several days with soap cream and apply moisturiser, the skin will become reddish and itchy with skin start to peel off.
For the new affected skin area in my chest, it is also itchy.
Have been struggle with this problem for almost 10 years already, really hope that this problem will go away soon and back to normal life.

Try Cetaphil on the face

Lately, I come across a very good hair shampoo which has improved my dandruff a lot. I have suffered with this problem more than 20 years, but after I started using the shampoo about 2 months ago, dandruff is almost gone now.

And I know they also have a series of products that can improve eczema or those that have serious problem with dry skin. Although I'm not sure how suffering it is when someone has eczema. Seriously, I was so tired with dandruff before it made me suffer for so many years of embarrassment and itchiness . Things like I couldn't wear dark color shirts otherwise everyone would ask me are you okay with your scalp or things like that, and the worst part is the itchiness where it was so annoying until I needed to go to the toilet to scratch my scalp all the time in the office.

If you are interested to get some info on the products please PM me. I can send you some details of the products. Hope this will help!

Last time I do have such problem also, and yes I do have frequent dandruff problem.

During that period of time, the skin on my eye brow there and side burn there kept on peeled off like dandruff. Then I just apply my sis d face lotion in the morning, no more such problem after some time. I guess its due to aircond room, making my face super dry.

Oh and about my dandruff problem. I used Head and Shoulder and Clear Mens. You know whats funny? If i stop using them, I will have dandruff. And If I continue use just one brand, I will have dandruff as well. Only when I use H&S until finish, then Clear Mens next, then only I will be dandruff free.

see specialize or doctor. I remember one of my friend who infected with HIV++ with very low CD4 count had something like this before.
Soon after he willing to take up medication, his skin complex get back to normal as before

It seems some itchy types are related to dandruff and pyrithione (Head & Shoulders, etc. ) helps. However if you want to try, you don't want a soapy shampoo on your skin too long. Get a small bottle of H&S CONDITIONER which also has the same ingredient but not soapy. You can even leave a tiny amount on all day without rinsing.

Sad to say, mine did not respond to this. I have got best results by washing with sea-salt, exfoliate with a clean cotton washcloth, and leaving to moisturize by natural face oils. If more is needed, coconut oil is very good. I am only a few days into trying a free sample from pharmacy of Physiogel Rich which contains a little ceramide barrier.

me also got a heavy dandruff problem , im using feminine wash as a shampoo , and seriously it works for me

The product, is it high acidity / low pH ?

Low PH i guess , cuz anti dandruff shampoo didnt work well with me till i tried feminine wash , cheap and works fot me

Makes sense. Low PH causes dandruff yeast to have problem surviving. Less of them, body react lesser to it. Dandruff decrease.

Can take pic of the bottle?
