It’s thick. It’s red. It’s dry. And let’s not forget it’s scaly, too. If you guessed it is some sort of exotic lizard from the far reaches of Australia, you would be wrong. Sadly, it is how your skin can look and feel when it is suffering from a psoriasis outbreak. Psoriasis, and its painful relative plaque psoriasis, are inflammatory conditions that dry out the skin, making it itch, flake, and scale. It can affect your scalp and your body. Tea tree oil is a known fighter against this condition and is especially effective at tackling the tough plaque and scaling. Add a few drops of this elixir to your shampoos and body washes for the best results.
