I've been wanting to do some fall/winter looks with the burgundy lips and all the fun stuff... Sparkly eyes and whatnot.

But, my skin is not having it. Psoriasis is the worst it's every been, I even have patches on my face. My eyelids are so angry

If I was to put product in top of it, I'd just look like a dry riverbed, cracking and splitting.. not a good look.

First world problems, ya know?

Yeah, this is my leg:

My entire back and stomach along with most of my boobies is just one huge patch

Damn, I'm so sorry. If it's any comfort, I have a sinus infection going on so I'll be a different kind of miserable right along side ya.

Yikes!
What calms the spots down, eventually?

Sun exposure. I usually tan during the summer but this year I was too depressed. Being outside in the sunshine felt wrong for reasons.

I've tried a few different meds for it but they don't help much and the side effects aren't worth the tiny amount of relief they provided.

My wife has psoriasis and has been on every med you've ever seen on a tv commercial, and a few others. Cosentix works. Thankfully her insurance pays...$4,000/mo for two injections. The meds that didn't work? Holy hell.

I'm gonna have to ask about that, I think my insurance is pretty good about covering scripts, but I am on a new plan and haven't looked into it very thoroughly.

I did find out that the new (well, kinda new) Olay body wash and in shower lotion with Shea butter actually help to calm my skin down a lil better than Aveeno. It smells better too.

If you have coverage, it might be worth trying. In our experience the meds are hit-or-miss. Some had nasty side effects, some had none. All lower immunity.

I hated seeing my wife suffer with this. I'm sorry you have to.

Oh, just remembered: if sun works really well for you, see if your plan will cover UV treatment.

I was just gonna ask if a tanning bed would work.

It does, but the sun is free

With luck, your plan may cover tanning membership, or possibly a UV lamp system.

Tomorrow, I may have to go bold on the lips. Today was kinda fun, having the face on.

Our youngest has a shitload of food allergies that are somewhat inevitable that he's going to be exposed to, and those allergies present as eczema that's quite similar to your psoriasis. We have a whole routine that we go through with him every night, but lately we've found a vasoline lotion that seems to be awesome with keeping his skin in check. Let me go grab it and I'll post a pic of it.

I lied, it’s actually the Lubriderm one that I personally think works the best, but they are both good.

I'm gonna give it a try.. I'll let you know how it works

And as for my makeup, I did have some unflattering patches in my foundation, but I don't give a fuck. I wanted to play with colors, so I put a sunset on my eyes. It was fun.

Good stuff. He scratches hard when he gets especially bad break outs, often to the point where he breaks skin. He's 4... Anyways, he claims sometimes the lubriderm stings if he has an open sore, so keep that in mind. Likely not an issue for you, but food for thought. Also, as aforementioned, he's 4 and possibly a little full of shit

 

[Tight_N_Juicy]

See? This whole thread. Happy stuff.

I'm gonna kick it in these places for the foreseeable future. Ya know. Cuz my mental health needs it.
