Guest guest Posted July 18, 2002 Report Share Posted July 18, 2002 <<I am definitely of the belief that oil and moisturizers are bad for flakines in the long run. Flakiness (seb derm) is caused by pityrosporum yeast/fungus that feeds off oils. >> flakiness is only caused by pityrosporum yeast when it is seb derm not all flakiness is seb derm. when it's not seb derm it's not seb derm! s.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2002 Report Share Posted July 18, 2002 Hello, I am definitely of the belief that oil and moisturizers are bad for flakines in the long run. Flakiness (seb derm) is caused by pityrosporum yeast/fungus that feeds off oils. This is why people with dandruff are told to not use conditioners on their hair. Yes, moisturizers will soothe your skin and moisturize those dead skin flakes, but in the long run, you are just creating more of a problem. I recently stopped using my moisturizers. The first week or so was awful- I felt like my whole face was falling off. But after a week or so, the flakes died down. I was also perscribed diflucan (10 days) and Loprox cream which I think both helped a lot. -Adam staceyiseman@... wrote: << I would think any kind of exfoliation would win the battle but lose > the war, since exfoliation would make the barrier more impermiable.
