My name is Lex and I have psoriasis. One of the main ingredients I look for in products for my psoriasis is actually oatmeal, and anything that is going to provide hydration. That is the key when I'm looking for products to help treat my psoriasis. Products with oatmeal as an active ingredient really help with the inflammation and the redness.

There are great, dependable products out there. You just have to know what to look for and you have to go through a little bit of trial and error to find out what products are going to be best for you. I also search for products that have been certified to treat psoriasis and that have been tested to treat psoriasis.

When I see that a product has been certified to treat psoriasis, I know that it's a product that I can depend on. To anyone else that’s living with psoriasis, just know that there are resources out there and there is a community out there that is ready and willing to help you.
