Why I Love It (Especially on Flare-Up Days)
✔️ Deep, long-lasting hydration
Lipikar AP+ products absorb quickly but keep your skin moisturized for hours — which is essential when psoriasis makes your skin lose moisture faster than usual.
✔️ Calms itching and irritation
The formulas soothe discomfort almost immediately, which makes a huge difference during flare-ups.
✔️ Strengthens the skin barrier
Psoriasis weakens the skin barrier, so using products that repair it helps reduce flare-ups over time.
✔️ Safe for sensitive and reactive skin
No fragrances, no harsh ingredients, no irritants — just calming, barrier-repairing hydration.

Sleeping on silk has been a game-changer for my hair — especially after dealing with the hair shedding that came from the medications I took for my autoimmune condition. Since then, I’ve been intentionally looking for the best ways to protect my hair, help it grow, and prevent breakage. Unlike cotton, which absorbs moisture and creates friction, a 100% silk pillowcase keeps my hair smooth, hydrated, and tangle-free. It reduces frizz, breakage, and split ends.
For me switching to silk is one of the easiest and most effective changes I made.
I started researching on TikTok about how to recover my hair, and rosemary oil kept showing up everywhere. At first, I honestly thought it was all ads or paid promotions. But then I saw the reviews on Amazon, the price was super affordable, and at that point I was willing to try anything to get my hair back — so I bought it.
And what can I say… I didn’t believe it until I used it.
Hair normally grows about 1 cm per month, but this oil didn’t just help my hair grow more than a 1cm — it helped it grow better, smoother, less frizzy, and with way less shedding. It truly made a difference.
Why I Love It
✔️ Helps stimulate scalp circulation to support healthier, stronger hair growth
✔️ Reduces shedding — especially after medication-related hair loss
✔️ Soothes and nourishes a dry, irritated scalp
✔️ Leaves hair looking fuller, shinier, and more resilient
I love cooking, but ever since my diagnosis my memory hasn’t been the same — and I constantly forget to defrost whatever I’m supposed to cook. So I end up starving, tired, and with zero motivation to make anything. That’s usually the moment when you want to grab something processed or just order takeout… but in my case, eating badly always shows up fast: my skin gets itchy, my joints start hurting, and my whole body feels off.
And since TikTok is basically my best friend 😂, this defrosting tray kept popping up on my For You Page. I thought, “Let’s give it a try… worst case, I end up with a new cutting board.” And honestly? It was one of the best impulse buys I’ve made
Why I Love It
✔️ Defrosts meat, chicken, and fish way faster without using heat or electricity
✔️ Saves me on the days I completely forget to take food out of the freezer
✔️ Keeps me on track with my anti-inflammatory diet (no more last-minute junk food)
✔️ Super easy to clean and lightweight — perfect for daily use
I can’t say much — I just love organization and my spices. When I found this product, it was an instant yes. I’m a very visual person, so a clean, organized kitchen makes me happy, and if I can see things, I actually use them.
With this revolving spice rack, all my spices are right in front of me instead of hiding in the pantry. Sometimes I even feel like I’m in a cooking show, grabbing my spices like a pro — it just makes the whole experience more fun.
The first time I saw this machine 😂 was at my aunt’s house. I spent a month visiting her, and sometimes — just to say thank you — I would cook dinner or breakfast.
She taught me how to use her Instant Pot, and I instantly fell in love. It’s one of those machines that truly makes your life easier. If you don’t love cooking or you’re just a very practical person, this will become your best friend. It cooks everything so fast, saves you time, and takes all the stress out of preparing meals.
Why I Love It
✔️ Cooks everything incredibly fast — perfect for busy or low-energy days
✔️ Makes healthy, homemade meals with almost no effort
✔️ Super versatile: soups, stews, rice, chicken, veggies… it does it all
✔️ Saves time on cleanup since it’s basically a one-pot solution
✔️ Helps me stay consistent with anti-inflammatory eating, even when I don’t feel well
Having dogs means my floors get dirty constantly, and keeping the house clean can feel like a full-time job — especially on days when my energy is low. This Roborock has genuinely saved me. It vacuums and mops on its own, avoids obstacles, picks up pet hair like a pro, and even empties itself, so I don’t have to think about it for weeks.
I love that my home stays clean without me having to sweep every day, and it gives me one less thing to stress about while taking care of my health and my pups
Living with an autoimmune condition has taught me that the little things matter — the tools that make life easier, the products that support my routines, and the small habits that help me take care of my body (and my peace). These are the things that truly make a difference in my day-to-day life.
I hope that sharing my favorites gives you ideas, saves you time, or simply reminds you that you deserve to make your life a little easier too.
Take what works for you, listen to your body, and always choose what makes your life gentler. 💛
Ever since I was diagnosed with psoriasis, my daily routine completely changed. What I eat, what I touch, the creams I use, even the detergents that come into contact with my skin, everything matters. I have to stay aware of ingredients to avoid triggering a flare-up, because when you’re dealing with active inflammation, there are things that suddenly become harder to do or that you simply have to avoid.
That’s why I want to share the 10 things that have truly made my life easier, small changes that protect my skin, save me energy, and help me manage psoriasis in a more gentle, practical way.
