Splish splash I was taking a bath

And I take a LOT of them. Probably have one a week.

They’re like a 2 in 1. Not only does it de-stress (which we all know helps my psoriasis) but it totally nourishes my skin in a way nothing else does. So when my skin is getting on top of me and I feel like the psoriasis is taking over, I just run the taps and I know when I get out it’ll all be better.

But what to put in the bath? I’d love to jazz it up with a funky rainbow bath bomb however that’ll give me an itch in more ways than one lol!

I’ve gradually started to create my concoction of a “bath bomb”:

I started with porridge oats. A man I met in work approached me and pointed out my skin. He told me he suffered from eczema and he swore by porridge oat baths. And it totally made sense because there are oats in the Aveeno moisturiser. So I fill my Nutri-Bullet with oats and ziz them to a powder so it mixes better with the bath water.

My next ingredient was something my mum used to always put in my bath as a child and I added it to my perfect bath recipe after reading up on it. Lavender oil. That powerful little bottle of oil is anti fungal, anti inflammatory and is full of antioxidants. So a psoriasis sufferer’s best friend for helping with those pesky, red blotches.

Last ingredient I use is the newest. I received a small bottle of Black Seed Oil from Santa this year from Christmas. He’d obviously done his research on its benefits for psoriasis. I wasn’t quite sure how to use it, my mum swears by it for her hair. But what about for skin? Do I rub it on the effected area? Do I take it orally? I tried both and didn’t see much of a difference after a week. But as I took my next bath and poured the lavender oil in, I thought about adding the Black Seed Oil as well and what a difference!

My skin feels silky smooth when I get out. I moisturise straight away and I can see it already starting to disappear on the difficult areas (elbows and knees). The red is deflating and slowly turning to white.

I swear by my baths and my bath potion to help when I feel like it’s getting on top of me. But I’m open to suggestions so if you’ve tried something in your bath that you swear by, then please comment or drop me a message. I’d love to try!

Sticks and stones will... give me psoriasis

So a few weeks ago I cut my legs shaving around the ankle (but we all know it’s a tricky spot!) AS I was throwing tissues at it, another thought popped into my head “OFFS, that’ll be another patch of psoriasis”. I knew that after the skin heals, for some unknown reason the skin would turn into scales. Lo and behold, a few days after the scab disappeared, a new type of scab appeared.

This is something I’ve noticed over the years, if my skin experiences any form of trauma, part of the healing process is that it turns into psoriasis. As if getting hurt isn’t painful enough!

And its not just cuts and scrapes to the skin. Any form of rubbing or friction causes an outbreak. I currently have a small spot of psoriasis next to my belly button from the waistline (or maybe button) of my jeans.

For years I’ve had constant red marks from the underwiring and straps of my bra. I’d love to opt out of wearing a brassier, however with a large and FFabulous bust, it is unfortunately not an option.

Spots are annoying for most people. But can you imagine having a spot, it finally going away and a few days later a big scabby patch appears worse than the original cause?

Any form of skin problem for me will lead to psoriasis. Ingrown hair- oh let’s turn that into psoriasis. Irritating rash – now deal with psoriasis. Little blackhead- not without psoriasis.

I have a constant patch on my inner elbow from getting bloods taken or when I go and donate blood. Even why I try and do a nice thing my body punishes me.

Moral of the story? Don’t get hurt and it won’t hurt you.

Baby it’s cold outside....

With the temperatures dropping, I thought this a good time to talk about my biggest trigger. The cold weather.

Being a Scottish national and growing up in constant cold , I didn’t realise this was a trigger to flare ups until I moved South where it is considerably warmer most of the year round.

I knew from being on holiday that the sun is a godsend but I didn’t realise that the cold affected my skin so much. Every year about this time, my skin gets considerably worse and the only thing I can seem to do is brace myself and put up with it.

The cold takes the moisture out of your skin, which makes sense in the same way the cold weather chaps your lips. So while most will be smothering their lips in Vaseline, I will be head to toe triple moisturising my skin.

This is not the only aspect of winter that affects me. The turning on of heaters and radiators which have been sitting all year, collecting dust and the lack of sunlight are all contributing factors as to why winter is the worst time of year for psoriasis sufferers.

So at a time of year that most look forward to, when they can get the jumpers out and start looking forward to Christmas, I’m dreading it because I know I’ll look like a pork scratching.

I guess all I can do is wait until I retire in the Bahamas and don’t have to think about Jack Frost nipping at my nose.
