Luckily, treating eyebrow dandruff is as simple as treating dandruff on your head. "You can use an anti-dandruff shampoo, such as Head & Shoulders or Selsun Blue, and gently lather the eyebrows and rinse, taking care not to get it into your eyes," dermatologist Monique Chheda, M.D. told SELF. However, Lefkowicz notes that if your dandruff is severe, you should really make an appointment to see a dermatologist.
Whatever you do, it's important that you treat the area gently. "You have to be very careful — removing the flakes can irritate the skin and leave you with open skin," dermatologist Michelle Henry, M.D., of the Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York, warned SELF. "It's not going to heal quicker. Aggressively removing the flakes is not going to get rid of the source."
Lefkowicz adds a few more tips, noting, "Avoid substances like glycolic acid, benzoyl peroxide, acne medicines, or anti-aging creams as these will only cause further irritation."
