Winter Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis: Causes, Symptoms, and Effective Treatments

   


As the cold winter months approach, many people notice an uptick in scalp issues, particularly dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. These conditions can cause itching, flaking, and discomfort, which are exacerbated by the dry, cold air and heated indoor environments. Understanding the underlying causes and the available treatments can help you manage these conditions effectively.

What is Winter Dandruff?

Winter dandruff is often triggered by the dry and cold conditions during the winter months. The lack of humidity in the air can dry out the scalp, leading to the overproduction of skin cells and subsequent flaking.  

Symptoms

- White or yellow flakes on the scalp and hair.  

- Itchy or irritated scalp.  

- Increased dryness or sensitivity.  


What is Seborrheic Dermatitis?

Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic skin condition that affects areas rich in sebaceous glands, such as the scalp, face, and upper chest. Unlike regular dandruff, it involves redness and inflammation in addition to flaking.  

Symptoms:

- Red, inflamed skin patches.  

- Greasy or yellowish flakes.  

- Itchy and irritated scalp.  

- Worsening symptoms during colder months.  

Causes:

- Overgrowth of yeast (Malassezia) on the scalp.  

- Genetic predisposition.  

- Cold, dry weather exacerbating the condition.  

- Stress, hormonal changes, or weakened immunity.  


How to Treat Winter Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis

1. Use a Medicated Shampoo

- Anti-dandruff shampoos: Look for ingredients like ketoconazole, zinc pyrithione, salicylic acid, selenium sulfide, or coal tar.  

- Frequency: Use 2-3 times a week until symptoms improve, then reduce to once a week for maintenance.  

2. Moisturize Your Scalp 

- Apply lightweight, non-comedogenic oils like argan or jojoba oil to the scalp to combat dryness.  

- Avoid heavy oils, which can worsen seborrheic dermatitis by feeding the yeast.  

3. Maintain Scalp Hygiene

- Wash your hair regularly to remove excess oil and flakes.  

- Avoid over-washing, as it can strip natural oils and irritate the scalp.  

4. Avoid Triggers

- Limit the use of heat styling tools and harsh hair products.  

- Manage stress through activities like yoga, meditation, or regular exercise.  

5. Adjust Your Diet

- Incorporate foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, and biotin to support scalp health.  

- Stay hydrated to prevent dryness.  

6. Use Topical Treatments

- Corticosteroid creams: For severe seborrheic dermatitis, a doctor may prescribe mild steroid creams to reduce inflammation.  

- Antifungal creams: Effective for controlling yeast overgrowth.  

7. Stay Hydrated Indoors

- Use a humidifier to add moisture to indoor air and prevent your scalp from drying out.  


When to See a Doctor?

If dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis persists despite at-home treatments, consult a dermatologist. Persistent symptoms might require prescription-strength medications or specialized care.  

Prevention Tips

- Wash hair with lukewarm water instead of hot water.  

- Protect your scalp with a hat or scarf in cold weather.  

- Use a mild shampoo even during symptom-free periods to maintain scalp health.   

By understanding the differences between winter dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis and following the above treatments, you can enjoy a healthy scalp all winter long. Take the necessary steps now to keep flakes at bay and soothe your skin for the season ahead.

Tips For Clean, Clear, And Healthy Skin in Winter With Dr. Disha

 


Winter can be harsh for skin care. It is really important to take care of your skin in winter to keep it healthy, hydrated, moisturized, and clean. Skin often becomes dry in winter due to cold wind. So, it becomes really essential to take care of your skin during winter.

There are some tips to be followed to take care of your skin during winter.

  •  Keeping your skin hydrated:  It is really important to keep your skin hydrated in winter and moisturize to keep it fresh and radiant. You can use natural moisturizers like coconut oil, yoghurt, cucumber, etc.
  • Drink enough water daily: Drinking water is really essential for maintaining healthy skin. It keeps the skin hydrated and bright without dullness.
  • Wash your face with lukewarm water: Bathing with hot water relaxes the muscles but at the same time it is not good for your skin and makes it dry and rough. Therefore, we should wash our face with lukewarm water as it keeps the skin moisturized and allows the skin to produce natural skin oils.
  • Avoid chemical-free skin products: Skin products infused with chemicals are harmful to the skin. Hence, chemical-free products like soaps, and creams should be used to keep healthy, glowing skin.
  • Use lip balm: Use lip balm for your dry lips in winter. It helps in moisturizing the dry and cracked lips.
  • Adequate sleep: Adequate sleep is very important for a refreshing, healthy skin. A consistent sleep cycle is good for your overall body health and helps to achieve good healthy, brighter skin.
  •  Apply sunscreen: Use sunscreen throughout the year to protect your face from harmful rays of the sun. Sunscreen forms a layer on the skin and protects it from UV rays.
  • Guidance of screen care expert: One should take guidance from a skincare expert to achieve healthy and brighter skin goals.

Things and habits to avoid for healthy skin:

  • Do not wash your face too often: Washing your face too often makes it look dry and is not good for the skin. Instead, just wash your face twice a day for better and healthier skin.
  •  Avoid chemical-infused products: For healthier skin, avoid using chemical-infused skin products like soap, creams, and lotions that contain harsh chemicals. These products are not good for your skin and promote dry skin.
  • Avoid taking prolonged hot baths: We should avoid taking prolonged hot baths because they disable the natural oil produced by our skin and also make it dry. Instead, we should use lukewarm water to rinse and wash our face.
  • Avoid scratching of dry skin: Avoid scratching of dry skin as it can further deteriorate your condition.
  • Avoid over-cleansing: Avoid over-cleansing your skin as it washes away all the natural oil produced by the skin and in return causes dry, itchy skin.

FAQs related to healthy skin in winter:

Q) Which vitamin is good for the skin in winter?

A) Vitamin E moisturizes the skin in winter and keeps it hydrated and healthy. It removes and heals dry, itchy, and flaky skin. Vitamin E can be found in sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts, avocados, etc.

Q) Is lukewarm better than hot water to clean the face?

A) Yes, it is better to rinse your face or wash your face with lukewarm water instead of hot water. Hot water makes the skin dry and itchy.

Q) What prevents skin darkening?

A) Applying sunscreen protects the skin from direct UV rays of the sun, and prevents dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

Sunscreen Facts Everyone Should Know with Dr. Disha

Sunscreen is one of the most important tools in the prevention of skin cancer.

July is UV Safety Month. We know that one of the best ways to practice UV safety is to wear sunscreen every day. To help you choose and correctly use the best product for your needs, review the nine facts about sunscreen listed below. 


Fact #1: Broad Spectrum Sunscreens are Best

UV radiation from the sun includes two types of harmful rays:

  • Ultraviolet A (UVA) Rays: Most common; cause premature aging of the skin (e.g., wrinkles)
  • Ultraviolet B (UVB) Rays: Most dangerous; cause sunburns

Overexposure to both types of rays can cause skin cancer. Sunscreens labeled as “broad spectrum” help protect against the effects of both UVA and UVB rays.


Fact #2: Aim for a Sunscreen with at Least 30 SPF

A sunscreen’s sun protection factor (SPF) indicates how much protection the product offers against UV radiation. Sunscreens with an SPF of at least 30 block 97 percent of the sun’s rays.


Fact #3: No Sunscreen is Waterproof or Sweat Proof

 Manufacturers can no longer advertise sunscreens as waterproof or sweatproof. Instead, products are now labeled:

  • Water Resistant: Effective for up to 40 minutes in water
  • Very Water Resistant: Effective for up to 80 minutes in water

The AAD recommends reapplying sunscreen every two hours, after getting out of the water, or after sweating.


Fact #4: Children Under Six (6) Months Typically Should Not Wear Sunscreen

Infant skin is more sensitive than adult skin. To protect infants younger than six months, the AAD recommends keeping them in the shade as much as possible; dressing them in protective clothing, such as long-sleeved shirts, pants, and a wide-brimmed hat; and making sure they stay hydrated. If you are still concerned about sun exposure, ask your pediatrician if he/she recommends sunscreen.


Fact #5: Sunscreen is Only One Tool in Your UV Safety Toolbox

 There are many ways to reduce your exposure to UV radiation. Experts recommend combining sunscreen use with wearing protective clothing, staying in the shade when possible, and avoiding outdoor activities when the sun is most intense.


Fact #6: Use the “Teaspoon and Shot Glass Rule” to Determine How Much Sunscreen to Apply

 Many people do not apply enough screens. The “Teaspoon and Shot Glass Rule” recommends using one teaspoon of sunscreen to cover the face and neck, and enough sunscreen to fill a shot glass — approximately one ounce — to cover all other exposed areas on the body.


 Fact #7: Sunscreen Expires

According to the AAD, the FDA requires all sunscreens to retain their original strength for at least three years. Many sunscreens include an expiration date printed on the label. Visible changes in color or consistency can also indicate that it is time to dispose of the product.


Fact #8: Spray-On Sunscreens Are Convenient, But Not Always Effective

The AAD explains that current FDA regulations on testing and standardization do not apply to spray-on sunscreens. Individuals who want to use spray-on sunscreen should make sure to use an adequate amount, rubbing it in to thoroughly cover all areas of exposed skin.


Fact #9: Sunscreen is Safe to Use

Some recent news stories have called into question the safety of the ingredients used in sunscreens, but sunscreen remains completely safe to use and is recommended by all healthcare professionals.

Korean Skincare Routine For Acne-Prone Skin With Skin Specialist Dr. Disha

 

Using the Korean skincare routine as our guide, let’s get to the fun part: the blemish-battling products, plus more tips for healthy, hydrated, and beautifully clear skin.

AGS

ACNE INGREDIENTS KOREAN SKINCARE ROUTINE TIPS

SHARE

Zits. Pimples. Spots. Blemishes. Acne has a myriad of names and takes just as many forms--annoying whiteheads, persistent blackheads, inflamed bumps. But no matter what kind of acne you might struggle with, Ohlolly is here for the rescue using our version of Korean skincare routine.

Focusing on a gentle and effective way to fight acne, here’s all you need to know.

Not all skin is created equal. Since everyone’s skin is different, unfortunately there is not one magical Korean skincare product that will universally heal everyone’s acne. However there are general principles and tips that can help you achieve a blemish-free complexion.

First, choosing the right products that target your specific type of acne, plus for your specific skin type is crucial. And just as important is being consistent with your routine. The best products in the world won’t heal your acne if you use them one night and then sleep in your makeup the next night. It takes time to truly heal blemished skin so give your skin the love and time it deserves. And trust me, your skin will thank you.

So what causes acne? The most common causes of acne are a buildup of dead skin cells, bacteria and an overproduction of sebum (oil). Hormones can also cause acne, however hormonal acne can be more difficult to prevent, but once the acne has appeared, there are some amazing Korean skincare products that can help heal blemishes faster. More on that later, I promise.

Now, let’s discuss different skin types. There is general assumption in American skincare that if you have acne, then you have oily skin. Look down the drugstore aisle at products that target acne-prone skin and you’ll see rough exfoliators that strip away your skin’s natural oils, toners full of drying ingredients like alcohol and “creams” loaded with harsh chemicals that often leave your skin more irritated than clear. Korean skincare products are ahead of the acne game with products that fight acne and add hydration to boot. Proper hydration is crucial to achieving clear skin, especially if you have oily skin.

Your skin can simultaneously be oily and dehydrated. This realization totally changed my outlook on fighting acne. If you deal with oily skin and yet your skin often feels tight and dry right after cleansing, is lackluster in appearance or is very sensitive then you most likely have dehydrated skin. When your skin is dehydrated is leads to overproduction of oil, which, of course, is a leading cause of acne. And dehydrated skin is best combatted by layers of hydration, which is a key component of the Korean skincare routine.

Keeping your skin hydrated can also help rebuild your skin’s moisture barrier. Your skin’s moisture barrier is the outermost layer of your skin that helps lock moisture in and keep bacteria out. As we age our skin’s moisture barrier breaks down, letting bacteria in, which is another acne-culprit.

Using the Korean skincare routine as our guide, let’s get to the fun part: the blemish-battling products, plus more tips for healthy, hydrated and beautifully clear skin.

Ohlolly cleansers for clearing acne

Step 1. The Double Cleanse

Cleansing is the first essential step to clear and glowing skin. If you haven’t committed to the double cleanse yet and are still dealing with breakouts, no more excuses. Using an oil-based cleanser is the best way to remove unwanted oils from your skin, like oil-based makeup and sebum. Since those of us with acne-prone skin typically have an excess of sebum, an oil-based cleanser is vital.

All Clean Balm by Heimish

Natural, Paraben-Free and Hypoallergenic! Ideal for all skin types, especially those with sensitive skin. Heimish All Clean Balm goes on as a solid balm, transforms into a silky oil cleanser on the skin then becomes milky while rinsing. The soft and lightweight texture effortlessly removes makeup and residue without stripping off skin's natural oils. Formulated with citrus herb oils to naturally brighten and nourish skin.

Next, follow up with a gentle water-based cleanser. If you deal with oily skin, a foaming cleanser is great. We recommend A-Clear Foam Cream by Dr. G. A-Clear is a specialized line from Dr. G that targets troubled skin.  

A-Clear Foam Cream by Dr. G

A-Clear Foam Cream is proven to help prevent acne. The rich foam smoothly removes excessive sebum, black and white heads from pores. Tea-tree oil and salicylic acid keep troubled skin clean, while plant components, like sage extract, provide moisture and a calming effect.

If you deal with dry or dehydrated skin, a gentle gel cleanser is a great choice. Low pH Gel Cleanser by CosRx is perfect for sensitive skin and also contains tea-tree oil, which has natural antibacterial qualities.

Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser by CosRx 

Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser is made with all natural ingredients to soothe, exfoliate and hydrate. Designed to restore the optimal pH balance to the skin and cleanse without irritations. Tea tree oil, and other natural ingredients, provide gentle yet effective deep cleansing. Cleanser gently removes overnight build-up of sebum and dead skin cells for fresh, clean skin.


Step 2. Exfoliate

Exfoliation is a necessary step for clear skin because exfoliating removes dead skin cells. When dead skin cells pile up, your skin’s ability to retain moisture diminishes, resulting in dry, cracked skin that allows for external bacteria to easily penetrate. If you want to learn more, read our post, Exfoliate Like a Pro.

There are two different kinds of exfoliation--manual and chemical. Manual exfoliation relies on bits or beads to scrub away dead skin. The best part of manual exfoliation is the instantaneous freshly-cleaned feeling, but the key for effectiveness is to be gentle! A too vigorous scrub can actually break your skin’s protective barrier, allowing more bacteria to get in and acne to make camp. Use a gentle exfoliator, like Crystal Deep Peeling by Dr. G, once or twice a week.

Crystal Deep Peeling by Dr.G

Crystal Deep Peeling uses crystal particles to remove dead skin cells from dull skin for a deep, yet delicate exfoliation. Natural salt ingredients, lemon and asiatic pennywort extract provide a professional peeling effect without causing skin irritation. The result is instantly smoother and brighter skin.

Chemical exfoliators rely on acids, typically AHA’s or BHA’s, to rid skin of dead skin cells and deep-seated grime. Don’t be troubled by the word chemical, these acids are naturally-derived and are clinically proven to exfoliate while being gentle enough for even sensitive skin. In fact, chemical exfoliators are ideal for those with sensitive skin because there is no chance of over scrubbing. An Ohlolly favorite is pre-soaked peeling swabs which exfoliate and provide skin a boost of hydration. You can read our full review of these magical q-tips here.

Lotus Vinegar King Swab Peeling by Holika Holika

Reveal radiant skin with Daily Garden Lotus Vinegar King Swab Peeling by Holika Holika. These king-sized cotton swabs are infused with sugar cane to naturally exfoliate dull skin. Lotus vinegar and AHA removes impurities and improves skin tone, leaving your skin soft and smooth.

Step 3. Tone

After cleansing and exfoliating, toning balances your skin’s pH levels and preps it for the next layers of treatment. But the right toner can also do double-duty and help fight acne. Enter A-Clear Balancing Toner by Dr. G, another amazing product from Dr. G’s A-Clear line.

A-Clear Balancing Toner by Dr.G

A-Clear Balancing Toner is an alcohol-free toner that controls excessive sebum. Natural salicylic acid and anti-bacterial complex smoothly remove dead skin cells for clean skin. The mojito complex (carbonated water, lemon, apple, mint, lime) helps ease sagging skin while the bisabolol has an excellent calming effect.

Another option to soothe, balance and tone is from Benton, the beloved Honest TT Mist.

Honest TT Mist by Benton

Made with 85% tea tree ingredients, this refreshing mist prevents and improves damaged skin while providing a boost of hydration. Honest TT Mist matches the skin’s natural pH levels and is made entirely with low stimulation ingredients, making it safe for the most sensitive and troubled skin. 

Step 4. Treat

Okay, this step is a doozy but is really the heart of the Korean skincare routine, potentially including multiple layers. Essences, serums and ampoules all come into play in this step, each treating a specific skincare issue and of course, adding extra hydration. To fight acne, Ohlolly’s top picks come from CosRx.

If whiteheads or hormonal acne are your main concern try  AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid. AHA’s are also a great choice if you have damaged and dry skin or skin with hyperpigmentation.

AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid by CosRx

Whiteheads, excess sebum, congested pores be gone. No frills and just 10 ingredients make the CosRx AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid a one-step solution for troubled skin including persistent acne, hormonal acne, sun damage and hyperpigmentation. The star ingredient is a natural AHA sourced from Pyrus malus (apple) fruit water. Along with Glycolic acid, it works to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and reduce the appearance of fine lines, large pores and acne scarring.

If blackheads are more your concern try BHA Blackhead Power Liquid. BHA’s are oil-soluble, making them a great exfoliator if your skin is more oily.

BHA Blackhead Power Liquid by CosRx

Experience a whole new way to exfoliate with no harsh peeling or irritation. Treat and prevent blackheads and blemishes with this powerful solution from CosRx made with 4% natural BHA. A very light serum-like texture provides a deep cleanse to flush out the clogged pores and reveal a clearer and brighter complexion. White willow bark tree extract and Niacinamide sink deep into the skin to purify and brighten, while Sodium hyaluronate plumps and hydrates.

Note: Be extra careful when mixing chemical exfoliants like AHA and BHA. Although these exfoliators are completely safe, even for those with sensitive skin, it’s best to never overdo it. Using multiple products with chemical exfoliants does not mean your skin will heal quicker. Similar to manual exfoliation, too much chemical exfoliation can actually cause your skin to be irritated. Begin by using one chemical exfoliation once a week and slowly increase to two or three times per week.

If your skin is extra-sensitive to AHA or BHA products, or tends to become red and irritated, we recommend a botanical treatment like Dr. G. Red-Blemish Soothing Ampoule.

Red-Blemish Soothing Ampoule by Dr. G

A calming face serum packed with antioxidants and skin-healthy plant extracts, Dr. G Red-Blemish Soothing Ampoule provides effective relief from redness and inflammation. Deeply hydrate and quickly soothe for a healthy, dewy glow. Ampoule is perfect for easily irritated, itchy, hypersensitive skin and those with Rosacea and acne-prone skin. Free of mineral oil and parabens.

Sometimes, no matter how religious you are about your skincare routine, a pimple appears. Again, CosRX saves the day with their Acne Pimple Master Patch. Packed with active ingredients these patches never fail to fight blemishes fast. Put on one as soon as you see or feel a pimple and then watch your pimple magically disappear.

Acne Pimple Master Patch by CosRx 

A spot acne treatment designed to shrink and heal active acne, pimples, whiteheads and blackheads. These soft, round patches are loaded with active ingredients that treat breakouts by eliminating infection and bacteria. The patches breakdown debris from blackheads and absorb oil and waste from whiteheads, while protecting the skin from external pollutants. Three different sized patches insure that all your troubled spots are covered.

One to two times a week apply a sheet mask, which contains concentrated essences for deep hydration and treatment. For oily skin, try Wonder Pore Black Mask.

Wonder Pore Black Mask Sheet by Etude House

Deeply clean your pores while hydrating with Wonder Pore Black Mask Sheet by Etude House. Wonder Pore Mask is soaked with oak tree charcoal which helps eliminate dirt and bacteria trapped in pores. This black mask also controls excess sebum, leaving your skin clear and refreshed.

For dry and irritated skin, use I’m Real Tea Tree Mask Sheet.

I’m Real Tea Tree Mask Sheet - Skin Soothing by Tonymoly

Infused with tea tree oil, which is a natural anti-inflammatory agent, this face mask soothes irritated skin. This mask is also infused with lemon, rosemary, thyme and jasmine extracts. Each mask features a three-layer cotton sheet for better absorption of essence.

Step 5. Moisturize

This step not only adds another layer of moisture but it also locks in the previous layers of treatments. CosRx makes a rich moisturizer that is gentle enough for everyday use and leaves your skin super soft thanks to BHA.

BHA Blackhead Power Cream by CosRx 

Achieve healthy, smooth, baby-soft skin with CosRx BHA Blackhead Power Cream. Reduce excessive oil production, lift away dead skin cells and prevent blackheads and whiteheads from building up. With 4% Betaine Salicylate (BHA) at pH level of 4.0 - 5.0, this cream is ideal for acne-prone, sensitive skin with red, uneven texture. The accompanying ingredients such as beeswax, sunflower seed oil and centella asiatica leaf water keep the skin calm and perfectly hydrated.

For a lighter moisturizer try A-Clear Balancing Moisturizer by Dr. G. This moisturizer uses botanical ingredients, like tea tree oil to help acne.

A-Clear Balancing Moisturizer by Dr. G (not photographed)

Patented phyto oligo has a calming effect that helps ease red skin, while baobab and peptide improve skin texture as well as moisture barrier. A-Clear Balancing Moisturizer is a 2-in-1 (essence + lotion) moisturizer that leaves skin feeling fresh and smooth.

Step 6. Protect

Protecting your skin from the sun is a step you should never forget no matter what your skin concerns are. Sunscreens are crucial especially if you’re using any products that have chemical exfoliants, like AHA and BHA; (vs. ,) your skin is extra-sensitive to the sun’s harmful rays. For oily skin try A-Clear Oil Control Sun by Dr. G or Oil Capture Peach Sun by Peripera.

A-Clear Oil Control Sun (SPF 50+ PA+++) by Dr. G

This gentle and oil-free sunscreen is perfect for those with sensitive, easily irritated skin types. In addition to the SPF and UVA/UVB protection, A-Clear Oil Control Sun also brightens skin and helps helps prevent fine lines and wrinkles.

Know 7 Mistakes That Can Damage Your Hair With Dr. Disha Hair Specialist Lucknow


There are 7 mistakes that can damage your hair which is given below:

1. Over Washing:

Washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils, which can cause dryness, breakage, and split ends. It's important to find a balance between keeping your hair clean and not washing it too often. For most people, washing their hair every 2-3 days is sufficient.


2. Using Hot Tools:

Using hot tools like curling irons, flat irons, and blow dryers can cause damage to the hair shaft, leading to breakage and split ends. If you must use hot tools, make sure to use a heat protectant spray and avoid using them on wet hair.


3. Tight Hairstyles:

Wearing tight hairstyles like braids, ponytails, and buns can cause tension in the hair follicles, leading to hair loss and damage. It's important to give your hair a break from these hairstyles and to avoid pulling your hair too tightly.


4. Chemical Treatments:

Chemical treatments like hair dye, perms, and relaxers can weaken the hair shaft, leading to breakage and split ends. It's important to use these treatments sparingly and to follow the instructions carefully.


5. Using The Wrong Products:

Using hair care products that are not suited to your hair type can cause damage and dryness. It's important to choose products that are specifically designed for your hair type and to avoid using too many products at once.


6. Skipping Regular Trims:

Skipping regular trims can lead to split ends and breakage, making it harder to grow long, healthy hair. It's important to get regular trims every 6-8 weeks to keep your hair healthy and prevent split ends.


7. Not Protecting Your Hair From The Sun:

Exposure to the sun's UV rays can cause damage to the hair, leading to dryness, breakage, and split ends. It's important to protect your hair from the sun by wearing a hat or using a hair care product with SPF.
