Thank you all for the warm welcome and replies!
It's probably time to get myself to a dermatologist for some advice - does anyone know an estimate on how long the referral takes?
The weather has been quite warm where I live this weekend, and after catching the sun on my face and applying moisturiser/aftersun each night, the redness seems to have eased slightly. Fingers crossed it continues!
What are the thoughts on the forum regarding aloe vera?
Years ago I used to have plaque psoriasis on my knees and elbows, however I found an aftersun that had 'aloe' listed as the first ingredient (as far as I am aware the first listed ingredient is the primary ingredient?) - this was a god send for me and my psoriasis completely disappeared from those locations and never returned.
Since using it though that particular aftersun is no longer produced - my question, does anybody use aloe type products? I am aware that there is a large aloe bandwagon with a lot of 'wooly' products on the market!
