(HealthDay News) -- Caring for psoriasis is a challenge during winter, when everyone's skin tends to become dry and itchy.

The National Psoriasis Foundation says you should use products that:

Are free of fragrance.
Do not contain alcohol.
Are made for sensitive skin.
Do not aggravate skin. Products marked "natural" can still be irritating.
