PD-Safe Moisturizer Ingredient Checker
Heavy moisturizers are a major trigger for perioral dermatitis. Occlusives like petrolatum, mineral oil, and lanolin trap bacteria on the skin surface and worsen PD — even products marketed as 'sensitive skin' formulas.
⛔ Top triggers in moisturizer
- Petrolatum / Petroleum Jelly
- Mineral Oil / Paraffinum Liquidum
- Lanolin
- Fragrance / Parfum
- Isopropyl Myristate
- Coconut Oil
- Cocoa Butter
💡 Tips for moisturizer
- →During active PD, consider zero therapy — stopping all products. The skin often clears better without moisturizer.
- →If you need moisture, look for products with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and squalane.
- →Avoid anything with 'petroleum', 'mineral oil', or 'lanolin' in the first 5 ingredients.
