*Updated* New Malassezia ("Fungal Acne") safe moisturizers!

Hello everyone! I have compiled a list of Malassezia safe moisturizers (which are not listed on the Simple Skincare Science blog). It is not perfect but I tried to outrule most known triggering ingredients for FA (with the exception of 2, Behenyl Alcohol and Lecithin). I checked the Simple Skincare Science blog for the product list and have not found these products listed so far in there. Some of these moisturizers are fragrance free. Also, by "new" I don't mean that these products have been newly released. These have been around for some time but I did not see them mentioned on the SSS blog. I've also noticed that no one speaks about these so I presume these products might come as a new recommendation for many. ๐…๐€ ๐ฌ๐š๐Ÿ๐ž ๐ฆ๐จ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ข๐ณ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ: - Skinfix Barrier+ Skin Restoring Barrier Gel Cream - Abib Probiotics Mask - Beyou Cosmetics Hyaluronic Acid Gel Moisturizer - Elizavecca Milky Piggy Sea Salt Cream - contains fragrance - Bioderma Sebium Sensitive Soothing Moisturising Anti-Blemish Cream - contains Behenyl Alcohol and fragrance - Geek & Gorgeous Hydration Station - for oily and possibly combination skinned individuals. - Heimish Matcha Biome Oil-Free Calming Moisturizer - Wet n Wild Tinted Hydrator - Tinted moisturizer.

Courtesy to Prez. - ZeroBase Emollient Cream - this one is very cheap in the UK. 500ml for around ยฃ10, the brand also has a 50ml tube which retails between ยฃ1.89 and around ยฃ3 if you wanna give it a try. Aimed towards individuals with dry skin conditions. Let me know if you've tried this one! * For people with dry skin, you can mix the moisturizers with a few drops of sugarcane derived squalane oil. Check out f.c.'s blog simpleskincarescience.com for his list of FA safe products and all other moisturizers which have not been listed in here. If you know any FA safe moisturizers just let me know so I can check these and add them to the list! :)

That one looks bomb! I saw it online the other day but forgot to add it to the list. I really like that Indian brands cater to people who have issues with Malassezia! :)

Just wanted to point out that Madame Gie and Somethinc are Indonesian brands, not Indian. I'm familiar with some of their local brands, being from a neighbouring country ๐Ÿ˜„ Thank you for compiling and sharing this list btw! โค
