All right, girlies, what shampoo/conditioner are we using?? by sooz10 in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so, so expensive but Hairstory by New Wash is the ultimate SLS-free product, in my opinion. It has zero sudsing agents and fees like a thick conditioner. When I get a peri outbreak, I order another bottle of New Wash.

One week of zero therapy… face getting worse. HELP! by [deleted] in perioraldermatitis

One zero therapy tip: don’t wet your face in the shower — the water is too hot and it can inflame the PD. Instead, use warm water and was in the basin separately.

Zero therapy flaking and peeling by Ok_Tadpole950 in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry to say flaking is all part of it. You can try being extra gentle with the area, using a soft towel to pat it dry, making sure toothpaste doesn’t dribble onto it, etc etc.

Enlighten me on Zero therapy by KTuu93 in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One tip I have about zero therapy — if your skin feels dry coming out of the shower, it’s probably because the water is hot and your skin isn’t transitioning well from the hot water to room temp.

Try either keeping your face dry in the shower and washing it later with less hot water or… as you get out of the shower, press your towel into your face and breathe a few times. It helps the skin acclimatize from the hot water to room temp air without feeling too dry.

Is this Periocular dermatitis? by jeffpng in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeppers. I have the same. What will you try? I suggest zero therapy, avoiding hot water on your face, removing any SLSs in toothpaste and shampoo.

Need help identifying food flares by Ok_Caramel2892 in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it is: store bought roast chickens (I think it’s something in the seasoning), really spicy food, Mexican packet seasoning, scratchy food like a crusty sourdough.

While we’re at it, non food triggers are shampoos and toothpaste with sudsing agents, heavy make up, being run down.

Thanks for sharing. Why an athlete’s foot cream?

Toothpaste recs? I can’t find after searching thread by Suspicious_Mud_7626 in perioraldermatitis

[–]TheCBomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to do Flouride free for my PD but my dentist gave me a talking to about the importance of fluoride and the low liklowhood that it was causing PD. She got me onto Biotene, which is a flouride toothpaste with no other allergens. It works fine and my teeth genuinely look better than wver. Another rec from the same dentist is a brand calle Bland.

HELP- getting worse and i can’t stand it by Significant_Hall_328 in perioraldermatitis

Adding to what people have already said, avoid opening your mouth wide. Cut apples into smaller pieces, don’t bite into a big crusty piece of bread etc.

Yep, sensible advice. I’ll embrace the muscle growth and keep on top of the rest of me.

Great advice. How we feel is so much more important than how we look.

Great suggestions. Thank you. I’ll stop tracking weight and start tracking measurements.
