Try not using a moisterizer at night. Are you that dry at night? I was on accutane 20mg for 8months and only really '"needed" it in the morning before makeup. You get into a habit of just putting it...

Probably a week? I was using just the bottled aloe after sun gel, did some research and found the aloe plant is heaps more potent. I had one at home so started picking that off and using it. I swear b...

ALoe Vera gel cleared up my redness! I was amazed! Give that a go after your shower at night

What dose are you on? The dose may be too high too soon.

Do you know what your dosage will be? If you are on a lower dose, you may not experience much of an initial break out. I was on 20mg a day and never got an IB. Everyone is different though. How bad...

I know how you feel! I was the same at christmas! Ive been on accutane for 5 months, and its been a lifesaver!! Have you heard of Dermablend? I still use it (just not as much) and it covers EVERYTHIN...

It's understandable to be scared, I was scared too. If the acne comes back, you can go on a second round, especially if you didn't experience many side-effects. Good luck! Thanks for your reply! I ...
