I currently use BeeBald "Clean" as an exfoliator. Very little grit, very mild scent, and it works.

I had a similar issue a while back, though not as bad, and had a little trouble getting rid of it. Once I started using the BeeBald products my head totally cleared up in a week and I haven't had the same problem since.

Also, if that is only on the side of your head that you sleep on... try changing your pillow case a bit more often. The oils, etc. that you are leaving on the pillow case could be a contributing factor.

Often less is more with scrubs and washes etc, if you use them daily your skin can end up over producing oil to compensate, making things worse

I've used BP daily on my face and haven't had a breakout in years. It doesn't irritate my skin the way SA does.
