Usage of oil on face depends on skin type. In persons with oily skin, additional application of oil must be avoided to prevent clogging of pores. In persons with dry or flaky skin, any natural oils may be used in moderation to mosturize the skin. Coconut oil, almond oil are some of the natural oils which are good for skin.

I'm wondering if it's okay to use halox lotion for my dandruff and then apply minoxidil afterward every day. I'm really trying to manage both my dandruff and hair growth, but I'm a bit worried if using both these products so close together might cause any problems. What do you think?

itis generally safe to use both Halox lotion and minoxidil if applied at different times, but its important to: Wait a while (30 minutes to 1 hour) between the applications. Use the steroid lotion only as directed to avoid overuse or skin thinning. Consult your doctor to ensure the combination is appropriate for your situation.
