I think you once posted about psoriasis. If I'm right I was wondering how your skin is doing?

For some bizarre reason mine is improving without any medicinal intervention, just daily moisturising with Palmer's Cocoa Butter.

EcclesCake, I suffer with psoriasis too!.........really bad at present, probably because we haven't had much sun lately, (that helps lots in my case! and for most of us I suspect!) will try anything!........rushing of to buy some Palmer's Cocoa Butter in the morning!.......hope it will help!..........thanks for that!......let you know how it goes, Oh, and, how long were you using it before you saw an improvement please?

I wonder if the Palmers Olive butter would work as well? I like that version, the cocoa butter smells so much of.. well - cocoa.

May be a better smell boxtops!........be good if it works as well, but to be fair, I can cope with the smell of cocoa if it helps my psoriasis!............it's so uncomfortable and itchy, and it looks terrible too!...........I hate it!........

[welshlibranr]

Oh Chris, so many!.........I think maybe just the cream!...............

[welshlibranr]

Chris, and thanks for the link too!.........sounds like it's worth a try!........

Evening all. x

[mrs.chappie]

Oops, sorry EC. Didn't realise this was in a serious category.

[welshlibranr]

Sorry Mark, was just reading one of Chris's posts!.........and I'm not Dotty either!......we can all get confused when reading lots of posts!..........sorry!........

EC I too have heard many good reports of Cocoa butter helping, Frank's replies up there are very useful.

[boxtops]

Is that you, Edna?

[tamborine]

Thanx Stan - I need cocoa & butter

[boxtops]

just make sure it's not garlic butter, tambo...

hiya, having tried the cocoa butter and the olive one (though not for a skin condition), i can safely say that while the cocoa smell totally rank, it's much better than the olive one. Olive one is like putting suncream on and then as you rub it in (takes ages) it starts flaking off in little balls
