17 Effective Natural Treatments for Perioral Dermatitis

My POD has gotten better by not using liquid makeup. Liquid makeup contains isopropyl myristate. Stay away from it. Use mineral makeup. It gives better coverage and does not make you breakout. Stop using a foaming cleanser. Cleansers, hand soaps etc with Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (its what creates the suds) makes POD worse. Try using cleansers that claim that are milk cleansers. They don't create suds and they calm your skin. Stop using toothpaste that has high amounts of flouride. Switch to dry mouth toothpaste. Make sure when you wash your hair that NONE of the shampoo suds get on your face. Remember SUDS are bad. Only use ACV if it is organic. The regular stuff will inflame your skin especially if you have been put on an anitbiotic.
