Hi Ladies!
What we have is called Seborrhea or Seborrhoeic_dermatitis
check it out on wikipedia
and the trick is that it LOOKS like dry skin, but it's really because it's oily!
For years I would put moisturizer and lotion on it, not realizing I was contributing to the problem.
I've started trying to wash my face every day/night, or sometimes every couple of hours.
The best guess most doctors have is that there is a form of yeast feeding on the sebum and the yeast irritates the skin.
I get mine on the nape hair line and here and there on my scalp, and around my nose, mouth and eyebrows.
For my scalp, I've gotten Selsun Blue with 3% Salicylic acid in it. It seems to suppress it enough to keep me from scratching all day.
It still isn't 100% enough, and even now my upper lip is incredibly itchy and I just took a shower this afternoon.
so ya... Seborrhoeic_dermatitis... I haz it, you probably haz it too. (It was one of the things that clued me into having PCOS)
