Selenium Sulfide is described as a fine orange-to-yellow powder, which is renowned for its potent antifungal and antiseborrheic properties. Selenium Sulfide is extensively used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and personal-care fields, specifically in shampoos that fight dandruff and creams with a medicated ingredient and topically applied suspensions. Chemically, it is known in the form of SeS2. Selenium Sulfide acts on the scalp by reducing cell turnover, managing oil production, and removing the fungi that cause dandruff as well as seborrheic dermatitis. It provides high purity, durability, and reliable therapeutic effectiveness, which makes it ideal to use in dermatological formulations. Complementary ingredients such as Fenchyl Alcohol and Phytol are often used in related personal-care and pharmaceutical formulations for enhanced product performance and skin compatibility.
