Here are my tips:
1) Try to knock out as much of the psoriasis as posssible before you get to the Playa. Make sure to put on that creme that keeps it in check. You want to make sure that the psoriasis is as little of a problem before you get to the Playa.
2) Take your psoriasis creme to the Playa and make sure to put it on twice a day. Remember, if your psoriasis goes away with a little sun, then it's going to take a hit on the Playa. You'll get a lot of it on the Playa.
3) Find a goot lotion and make sure to wear it on the psoriasis while on the Playa. The Playa is very very dry and my psoriasis loves dry weather. The first year I went and did not take care of my psoriasis, it bloomed like crazy and it bugged the hell out of me. The following year, I keep the creme and the lotion on and got enough sun and it tooks months for the psoriasis to recover. It was awsome.
