Well I officially survived one month of accutane! My skin is smoother, but I wouldn't say their has been any drastic changes, I was pretty sure I was going to wake up one morning and have this whole new face but that didn't happen obviously!! The side effects are pretty much what I've read, everything's just dried out! I had my first cold sore and that was not fun! My scalp is itchy and dry! I keep getting dry rashy spots all over my arms, theirs pretty much a new one every day! But y'all the dry lips are NEXT LEVELLL!! I don't even want them anymore, just take them away! ???????????????? other than that it hasn't been a terrible experience! But we are going to the beach in a couple of weeks and I'm a little nervous about being miserable! I guess we will see!

Dry lips advice????
Okay so I'm on day 5, I haven't noticed any bad side effects. I randomly lost 5 pounds and I'm not sure if it's related to the medicine or not? I'm taking 40mg of zenatane. My lips are dry and my nose is peeling it's kinda like if I were to get sunburnt and its just barely peeling. Any suggestions on what to use for the dry lips???

Hehehe I'll start doing the same, thanks giiiirrll. I'm on day two and my lips are starting to get dry, it's already annoying me, I'm using vaseline. My nose is still the same.

Dr.haushner makes a lip cream you can get at whole foods - it's pricey but the best - that's what I used about a million years ago when I dd accutane - it is not easy but you won't regret it it changed my life - my only regret was I didn't do it years earlier!
