- Your Scalp Is Skin — What the "Skinification" Trend Gets Right (and Oversells)
The scalp really is skin — but a different, oilier, hair-covered kind, and that changes which "scalp care" claims actually hold up. Here's what the research shows, and where the marketing runs ahead of it.
- Seborrheic Dermatitis and Dandruff: Why the Flaky, Red Patches Keep Coming Back
Dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis aren't caused by dry skin — they're a reaction to a yeast that lives harmlessly on everyone's scalp and face. Here's what the evidence says actually calms it, and why it relapses.
- Fungal acne: why your acne routine might be feeding it
Malassezia yeast lives on nearly everyone's skin and eats the very oils many 'nourishing' products are built on. That's why your acne routine can make it worse.
