Malassezia Safe
Dermatologist Approved
Enjoy a life free of flaking, itching, and hiding
A revolutionary approach to fungal skin conditions.
The science behind the malassezia fungus is still evolving. Big name brands remain unaware of the biofilm layer and continue to make products with oils that aren’t safe for people like us. Because the problem is personal, we stay on the cutting edge of safe and soothing fungal relief.
Our Unique Three-Step Process
1. Disrupt the Biofilm
Malassezia creates a biofilm shield that protects it from antifungal products. We’ve unlocked the secret to safely neutralize this barrier.
2. Clear the Fungus
Once the biofilm is removed, you can clear away the fungus easier than ever. We use skin-safe antifungals powered by Mother Nature.
3. Soothe the Skin
Now it’s time to nourish and hydrate your skin without using lipids (like coconut oil) that feed the malassezia.
Designed by humans with moody skin.
We know you because we are you. We know what it’s like to maintain a love/hate relationship with your body, especially your skin. We know how skin has a mind of its own.
Some days it’s happy and calm. Other days are filled with flare ups, flakes, and frustration as you scramble to cover up the irritation. You aren’t obsessed with your looks. You just want calmer skin. You aren’t asking for much.
We have lived your struggles, tried the so-called solutions, and found the secrets to happier, more reliable skin.

Our story
I was frustrated and confused. For over ten years, I’d been battling itchy, inflamed skin with no relief. Seborrheic dermatitis was making it hard to even look in the mirror, let alone show up confidently for my life. I was desperate.
No one had answers. Not the dermatologists. Not the drugstore aisles. Not the “natural” cures that promised more than they delivered. Every product either made things worse or barely covered it up.
Driven by equal parts hope and desperation, I started studying the root cause of my symptoms—and that’s when everything shifted. I discovered the role of Malassezia, a fungus that feeds on most oils and hides behind a stubborn biofilm that blocks treatments from working.
So I decided to make something new—something that disrupted the biofilm shield, reversed the spread of Malassezia, and soothed moody skin without feeding the fungus. I started crafting my own remedy ordering ingredients in bulk online. This was the earliest version of our Calming Seborrheic Serum (which my co-founder, Niels, later helped me perfect). Within days, my skin was clearer than ever. No flakes. No itching. No redness. No embarrassment. For the first time in a decade, I felt relief—and hope.
Immediately, I posted the ingredients on Reddit and in Facebook groups for seborrheic dermatitis, hoping someone would whip up the formula and find the same success that I did. No one wanted to take a chance to order the ingredients and make it themselves. That's when I realized, in order to help more people, I would have to do the work for them.
I began giving out samples to others online who were dealing with the same condition. The feedback was overwhelming. People said it helped more than anything they’d ever tried. They were asking for second bottles quickly. That’s when I knew this wasn’t just a personal solution—it was the beginning of something much bigger.
That’s when the dream of Dermazen was born.
One fateful day, I emailed my friend and former coworker, Niels, just to see if he knew anyone in the cosmetic manufacturing world. As fate would have it, he said, “I’m pretty sure I actually have the same condition.” (Only about 5% of people do.) I sent him the original formula. And his skin was finally peaceful. He was blown away—and immediately wanted to join the mission.
From there, we reached out to a few more friends and colleagues who shared our passion for clean yet effective solutions—including Shane, who’s now our head of digital strategy. Our leadership team came together organically, united by a shared belief that people deserve peaceful skin and peace of mind.
Today, Dermazen exists to educate and empower anyone struggling with seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, fungal acne, and other malassezia-triggered skin issues. We’re not just a skincare brand—we’re a team of people who’ve been there. And we’re here to make relief simpler, safer, and more reliable for everyone who needs it.
