    The following info might give some of you some new ideas :hello:

    For psorisis I have tried

    Dead Sea Mineral from shopforspa - excellent shampoo and conditioner for itchy head. Also the soap and salts for body.

    www, Elanasnaturecollection. co. uk - all natural cream - available on prescription. My doctor didn't know about this but took a print out from the website to show him. Great for skin, not such a great smell though, but not priority if it eases the problem.

    Bio oil - use it twice or more daily - this is the best and smells great.

    hiya I'm not sure about soaps but for hair lush do a good shampoo bar called soak and float it smells a lot like coal taR, it works a treat on flaky scalp, and it lasts for ages, one bar lasts me about four months (good for money savers!!).

    I don't know if you can use it on skin but they do the coalface cleanser which has charcoal and liquorice in.

    You can use Capasal therapeutic shampoo for psoriasis, available from Boots, I think you have to ask for it at the pharmacy counter but no need for a prescription. Contains distilled coal tar.
