Soothes flaking and redness on the face, eyebrows and around the nose
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Kerium DS Concentrate is a soothing face care for skin prone to seborrheic dermatitis, with red, flaky and itchy patches on the face, eyebrows and around the nose. Its formula combines zinc PCA, which helps regulate oily skin, with piroctone olamine, which targets the Malassezia yeast involved in flaking. La Roche-Posay adds Aqua Posae Filiformis, a biomass grown in its thermal spring water, to help rebalance the skin's microbiome. According to the brand, visible flaking and itching are reduced within a month, and the calmer result lasts for weeks after you stop.
The texture
A light, non-greasy cream that absorbs quickly and leaves no shine. It is easy to apply only on the areas that need it, even in the morning under sunscreen or makeup.
Who it suits
- Red, flaky patches on the sides of the nose, eyebrows or hairline
- Oily skin that also feels itchy or tight
- Skin that flares up in winter or with stress
- Men with flaking in the beard area
Worth knowing before you buy: it contains fragrance. It is a care for the face, not a scalp product: for flaking on the scalp, a Kerium DS shampoo is the better match. Keep it away from the eyes.
How long one tube lasts
Used morning and evening on small areas such as the nose and eyebrows, the 40ml tube usually lasts about two months. Covering the whole face uses it up faster, in around four to six weeks.
