What is splenic eczema?

Stomach eczema occurs when the skin overproduces sebum, allowing the yeast Malassezia to grow and irritate the skin. This leads to redness, scaling and often unpleasant itching. Stomach eczema can occur in more places than just the scalp - it often affects the face (around the nose, eyebrows and ears) and other areas of the body where the skin is oily.

A good hair care routine can do wonders to keep both hair and scalp in balance. Using the right products can help soothe your scalp and reduce the symptoms of dandruff.

What causes splenic eczema?

Stomach eczema is caused by several factors, but mainly it is a combination of overproduction of oil and the yeast Malassezia. There are also several external factors that can make the condition worse, for example:

• Stress: High stress levels can trigger and worsen splenic eczema.
• Climate: Cold weather can dry out the skin and make symptoms worse.
• Hormone changes: Changes in hormone balance can affect sebum production and cause splenic eczema to flare up.

Understanding what triggers your dandruff can also help you manage it. For many, the right hair care products can help keep your scalp in check.

How do you treat splenic eczema?

Managing dandruff is about finding the right balance between keeping the skin moisturized and clean without over-treating or irritating. Here are some key tips and steps to treat dandruff effectively:

1. use a soft, sulfate-free shampoo

One of the first steps in treating dandruff is to use a shampoo that doesn't dry out or irritate the scalp. Many common shampoos contain harsh chemicals that can make dandruff worse, so it's important to find a product that is gentle but effective.

We recommendCaring Shampoo, which is packed with moisturizing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and Piroctone Olamine. Hyaluronic acid helps bind moisture to the skin, while Piroctone Olamine actively counteracts dandruff and soothes the scalp.

2. moisturize your scalp with the right conditioner and hair mask

Keeping the scalp moisturized is crucial to managing splenic eczema. When the scalp becomes dry, flaking and itching can worsen, making the eczema spread even more. A good conditioner and a moisturizing hair mask can help restore the moisture balance of the hair and scalp.

The Every's Caring Conditioner is perfect for daily use, as it contains both hyaluronic acid and avocado oil which help to moisturize and protect. In addition, Piroctone Olamine soothes the scalp and counteracts itching.

For extra moisture once a week, we also recommend Caring Masque, a deep-acting mask containing shea butter and hyaluronic acid to nourish both hair and scalp.

3. Exfoliate the scalp to remove dead skin cells

Another important aspect of treating splenic eczema is to regularly exfoliate the scalp. Dead skin cells and product residues can block pores and worsen eczema. Using a gentle scrub can help keep your scalp clean and balanced.

Try it Scalp Scrub for a gentle but effective exfoliation. It contains Piroctone Olamine to fight dandruff and aloe vera to soothe irritated skin. The perfect solution for a healthy and balanced scalp.

4. Protect your hair from heat damage

Although dandruff mainly affects the scalp, it is important to also consider how you treat your hair. Using heat tools such as straighteners and hair dryers can dry out both hair and scalp, which can make symptoms worse. Therefore, it is important to always protect your hair from heat damage.

We recommend Nourishing Heat Protection from The Every, a nourishing heat protection cream that not only protects against heat but also moisturizes and prevents frizz. Perfect for those who want to keep both hair and scalp healthy, even when styling your hair with heat tools.

5. Create a healthy hair care routine

Having a consistent hair care routine is key to managing dandruff in the long term. It's not just about treating the symptoms when they appear, but also about preventing them from recurring. By using the right products, washing your hair with the right frequency and avoiding harsh chemicals, you can help keep your scalp healthy.

1. Shampooing with a mild, sulfate-free shampoo Caring Shampoo is an excellent choice for daily use.
