Effective treatment for Tinea versicolor
I use Selsun Blue Maximum Strength Medicated Shampoo to treat the Tinea versicolor flare-ups that I experience during summer months. It contains Selenium Sulfide that helps relieve my symptoms and clears my skin of the small white patches. The scent is a tad medicinally strong. The lather is rich, feels tingly and stays blue throughout washing. I highly recommend Selsun Shampoo for treating fungal (yeast) skin conditions and will purchase again.
Please note: I have only used Selsun Shampoo to treat this skin condition. I do not experience dandruff and never washed my hair with this shampoo.
Not just for hair!
After about 10, and now in my 30s I started getting tinea versicolor again. For those who aren't aware, it's an infection on the skin caused by an overproduction of the body's natural yeast. It looks like tiny white spots on your back that will turn pink when exposed to Sun but will not tan. As soon as I noticed that I was getting it I started applying cell Sun every night before bed for about half an hour and it was gone in less than a week! The only downside is that it's about double the price of the store brand for the exact same product.
Wow
I started using this after a shampoo caused my scalp to break out really bad. After using it for a week I notceed it is improving. It is less itchy and the scabs are healing up.
a great shampoo
i was recommend by my derm to use this for my malassezia folliculititis, which i get on my chest and back, i found it started to clear it up after using it twice, leaving it on for 5 minutes before i shower, and washing it off in the shower with my body wash!
