Can I wear make up while on Accutane?

Acne07
I wear oil-free moisturizer spf 20 everyday. But I need to cover my face with make up because I don't want people to criticize me for my acne. At least with make up on, I can still somehow manage to go to work with minimal comments from people on my acne. I would like to know if it's safe?
