It has been almost 2 weeks since i started taking accutane 40mg and this is how its going so far
ACNE
In terms of acne it is getting bad i have a lot of cysts that came out recently but that is due to the purging phase and its not that big of a deal for me because i have had breakouts like this every few days for the past year and a half
The only unusual thing is that i got few cysts on my forehead which is weird because i never got pimples like that on my forehead only bunch of blackheads and occasionally a simple whitehead
SIDE EFFECTS
My lips are chapped and it hurts to smile but thats normal (accutanecels recommend a good repair lip balm)
My eyes get dryish sometimes but nothing too significant
My skin is very very dry
Q: Should i put moisturizer AM and PM or would that break me out, or is it possible to break out because your skin is too dry that i produces excess sebum?
IMPORTANT: give me a good cleanser that doesn't dry out the skin that much bc this one that i use overdries it
