Seborrheic dermatitis & moisturizers???

Question: well fall is approaching, and I can already feel the areas around my chin, nose, and eyelids starting to roughen, even though I can't see it yet. I was diagnosed with SD last year after year of battling rashes, allergies, etc.I don't want it to get like last year again with the patches of flaky skin slothing off, leaving behind painful redish patches.Does anyone know a good moisturizer and cleanser that I should be using? Honestly, if it will really help and keep my skin smooth enough to wear makeup, I'll spend the extra money on it. I've noticed that some moisurizers cause me to break out and get oily, which I'm proud to say I've never had a full-blown pimple in my life.Clinique? Estee Lauder? Another brand? I don't know who to go with. I'm just terrified of another year like last year, another winter and spring of avoiding pictures



Answer: Your best bet is to see a dermatologist & see what products he/she would advise you to use. I have sensitive skin & I use Aveeno fragrance free skin cream everywhere except my face. I had dermititis a few years ago & the dermatologist told me to use the Aveeno. On my face, I use Oil of Olay Complete. It's in a white plastic bottle, inside a white box. I use the "Sensitive" & it's great. Maybe you need a fragrance free moisturizer. The doctor can tell you what's best.
