Another thing you should do is switch over to natural soaps, body butters, and moisturizers. If you want scented products, make your own- using fragrance oils or essential oils. Not only are they better, they can significantly alleviate or completely get rid of your skin problems. And last, but not least – they last longer.

I recommend shea butter, coffee butter, coconut oil, and olive butter for good moisturizers. Neem oil is also very very effective,but I personally think it stinks. Mango butter is a great alternative if you dont like the heavy moisturizers, but you will have to use it more frequently – or maybe not, everybody’s skin is different.

I personally think you should start with shea butter though. Soak your hands in wwarm water for a few minutes, pat them dry – then apply the shea butter to start. Use it faithfully after you wash your hands, regularly throughout the day (take a sample size with you places), and put it on before you go to bed and even possibly wear some gloves to help lock in the moisture.

If you keep using natural products faithfully, you will soon see a difference! You are welcome contact me if you have any questions. I have psoriasis but you can no longer tell. I am a living testimony that natural products work!

There is so much I could tell you but you have to take it one step at a time. The first step is to pay attention to what you are using on your skin, know the ingredients in what you use, and if they actually are helping or hurting you.

I would suggest you give it a shot. The way I rationalized spending the money is that you have nothing to lose except all of those sleepless, itchy nights.
