At Wildling, we feel that everyone deserves to feel confident in their skin. Psoriasis, a chronic skin condition that affects millions worldwide, can shake your skin confidence. With the right knowledge and care, you can take an empowered approach to healing. This blog aims to shed light on psoriasis and how our clean beauty products can be part of a soothing and empowering skincare routine.
Understanding Psoriasis
Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition that speeds up the life cycle of skin cells, causing them to build up rapidly on the surface of the skin. This results in scales and red patches that can be itchy and sometimes painful. Common areas affected by psoriasis include the elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back. The exact cause of psoriasis is still unknown, but it’s believed to be related to a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
The Impact of Psoriasis on Daily Life
Living with psoriasis can be challenging. Flare-ups can occur at any time, triggered by stress, infections, or even certain medications. The visible nature of the condition can also lead to emotional and psychological stress. At Wildling, we understand that skincare is not just about appearance; it’s about feeling good in your skin.
Clean Beauty: A Gentle Approach to Skincare
When dealing with psoriasis, it’s crucial to choose products that are gentle, nourishing, and free from harsh chemicals. Clean beauty products are formulated with natural and non-toxic ingredients, making them a safer choice for sensitive and compromised skin.

Dietary Recommendations for Psoriasis
While topical treatments are essential, what you put into your body is just as important as what you put on your skin. A balanced diet can play a significant role in managing psoriasis symptoms. Here are some dietary tips to consider:
Anti-Inflammatory Foods
Fatty Fish: Salmon, mackerel, and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can reduce inflammation.
Fruits and Vegetables: Colorful fruits and vegetables like berries, leafy greens, and carrots are packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.
Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, walnuts, flaxseeds, and chia seeds are excellent sources of healthy fats and nutrients.
Foods Rich in Vitamin D
Fortified Foods: Vitamin D-fortified milk, orange juice, and cereals can help maintain healthy skin.
Mushrooms: Certain types, like shiitake and portobello, are good sources of vitamin D.
Whole Grains
Brown Rice, Quinoa, and Oats: These grains are high in fiber, which can help reduce inflammation.
Lean Proteins
Chicken, Turkey, and Legumes: These provide essential amino acids without the inflammatory effects of red meat.
Foods to Avoid
Processed Foods: Sugary snacks and beverages can trigger inflammation and worsen psoriasis symptoms. Processed meats, high in unhealthy fats and additives, can contribute to inflammation.
Dairy Products: Some people with psoriasis find that dairy products can exacerbate their symptoms.
Hydration
Water: Staying hydrated is crucial for maintaining healthy skin. Aim to drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
