Guiding principles

Go gentle. Friction and harsh detergents stir up flakes.
Keep it lightly hydrated. Choose oils that tend to play nicer with seb derm.
Add a quiet antifungal note. Tea tree in a rinse off step can help.
Use the least soap needed. Capture and wipe when you can to honor the river.

Additional Considerations

Pine Tar Soap is particularly noted for its effectiveness in treating skin conditions like dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis due to its soothing properties.
Beard Oil can help maintain moisture in the beard and skin, which is essential for preventing dryness that can lead to flaking.
Regular use of a beard wash can help keep the beard clean and reduce the buildup of oils and dead skin cells.

While these products can be beneficial, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional for persistent or severe cases of seborrheic dermatitis.
