Sensitive skin with perioral dermatitis
Hi :-) I have periodically gotten quite a bit of rash of the perioral dermatitis type, now that I am pregnant it has flared up a lot around my mouth. Is this a good product for skin with PD? Of course, in between a well-suited cleanser and cream. Skin type otherwise: oily and greasy in the T-zone and dry on the cheeks. Gets more oily in the T-zone as the day goes on. My dermatologist gave me a sample of La Roche Posay Toleraine Rosaliac AR Concentre and said I should try it along with Viatris Elidel cream (medication). The first days this Rosaliac AR cream had a very soothing and calming effect on my red skin, but now after a week the skin itches more. I've heard you should try a product a bit longer than a week before concluding, so I choose to be patient for a couple more weeks and see if the itching goes away. The skin is not red, but maybe the cream is better for people with rosacea and not PD. I am considering trying La Roche Posay Toleraine Dermallergo cream since I saw several here on Lyko commented that this is good for sensitive skin with PD. I gladly welcome all tips, and thank you in advance.1 product in post Sensitive skin with perioral dermatitis27 views- The user's roll: Skin therapist at Lyko. The comment was made 1 weekHi 😊 Perioral dermatitis can unfortunately often flare up more during pregnancy due to hormonal changes, and many also experience that the skin becomes extra sensitive and reactive. The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Squalane can definitely be a nice product for PD, especially if the skin feels tight, dry, or irritated. Squalane is simply composed, without active ingredients or fragrance, and works more as support for the skin barrier than as a “treatment” product. Many with sensitive skin tolerate it well, but since PD skin can react very individually, I would introduce it gently, preferably a few drops over cream in the evening first. Regarding Rosaliac AR Concentrate, it sounds like the skin initially liked it, but maybe now it reacts a bit to something in the formulation. Itching can be a sign that the skin is irritated, even if it doesn’t necessarily get redder. It is made more for rosacea and diffuse redness than classic PD, so Dermallergo might be a safer and calmer alternative for you right now. Many with PD tolerate the Toleraine series better because it is more minimalist and aimed at sensitive and reactive skin. lyko.com/sv/la-roche-posay/la-roche-posay-toleriane-dermallergo-creme-40-ml Since you also use Elidel, I would try to keep the rest of the routine as simple and mild as possible for a while. Mild cleansing, few products, lots of calm, and as few active ingredients as possible are often what skin with PD responds best to 🌿
