Hi Jessica and Welcome!
I had psoriasis on my face as well. I didn't like using steroid creams either so I went through my general doctor to a local spa and asked what lotions they would recommend (it is a medical spa.) I had good results with a Vit C Lotion 15% which worked well as a moisturizer before putting on make up. But it was being on Acitretin and UVB treatments where I saw the clearing start. Currently I use coconut oil to help moisturize.
As others have said though, a good doctor is the way to go!
