Looking for any testimonials or personal results with Arbonne and psoriasis.


Any information would be helpful!


Thanks!

Lisa, I have psoriasis on my legs. During the summer months it went completely away with using our Made in the Shade self tanner. That product took the itchies away and really helped with the scaling. Amazing! At first, it was really awkward, since the self tanner was tanning my good skin and the psoriasis skin was flaking off, showing white skin underneath. But after a few weeks, it was not noticeable at all.


Now that it is winter however, I'm having a harder time keeping up with it. It takes more of an effort to keep it at bay and I'm not very good with applying products all throughout the day, though now I wish I had. What has been helping is the Ginger Citrus Body Butter (though I'll have to stock up since it's a seasonal item), and the RE9 Body Care Duo, and the skin conditioning oil. I apply the self tanner occasionally now, but in the winter I need more moisturization. This is keeping the skin constantly moisturized- applying products 5, 6 times a day.

My father has psorisis andswears by Awakensea salt scrub. It keeps it under control - he thinks it has more to do with the oil than the salt. He told me, "plus, I smell sexy!"


Ooooo... too much information dad!

make sure though that if you recommend the SSS to anyone, that they don't have any open wounds, OUCH!smileys/smiley18.gif

What is the difference between psorisis & excema?

I would like to add that the rejuvinating cream along with the skin conditioning oil would be highly effective in helping with this skin condition. Both products are made for severe or not so severe skin problems(for example windburn, sunburn, bruises, dry cuticles).

The rejuvinating cream is also great for eczema and rosacea(which would be used in place of a moisturizer,it can take alot of the redness away and still give your face the moisture it needs). Just remember that a little goes a long way.

My upline's husband had a very severe form of bad skin to where it couldn't even be touched and the doctor said there was nothing more he could do. Since she could not rub it on him she put the skin conditioning oil in a spray bottle and kept spraying a few times a day and his skin improved tremendously!

I ,myself had burned my finger pretty badly on the oven to where I was sure it was going to blister and I put the rejuvinating cream on it right away and applied it twice more that day and it never even stayed red! These are the most awesome products. Its worth a try. There are no known irritants in these products.

yes, I have tried the rejuvenating cream on my psoriasis and sometimes it burns. Worth a try if the skin is not broken.
