Update 6.10
I'm on 80mg a day its been about 15 days. My face is always really red and I'm def more dry this is now affecting my arms and legs buy not affecting it bad I just never used lotion on my arms and legs and now I have to lol My lips are dry but not bad honestly I'm still wearing my matte Kat Von D, Ofra and color pop liquid lipsticks for 5+ hours a day without applying chapstick. Now when I scrub it off my lips are a little raw from the scrubbing but I just put some vaseline and it heals right up.
I am starting to get a few bumps here and there so I'm going to let my doc know she said she wanted me to finish early but I don't want to not get the full effects.

1 month and about 2 weeks
I've actually been doing really well as far as dryness goes! My face is dry after I wash it of course but then I put on the Neutrogena hydro boost with 2 small pumps of jojoba oil and it will leave me refreshed all night. In the morning I do the same but, add a small pump of cetaphil moisturizer with spf 50. I then apply a primer and my makeup. I notice at about the 3 hour mark my makeup starts to break up around my mouth. This area is always very dry however, my lips are not bad at all. I still wear matte liquid lipstick on the weekends.
I see improvement in my face for sure. I have experienced like 2 or 3 breakouts during my cycle but they dont hurt at all and went away in like 3 or 4 days.

2 weeks and 3 days in
I hit 2 weeks on accutane on Saturday. I am absolutely noticing dryness in my face and especially lips. My lips are not cracking or anything but I do need to apply chapstick 3 or 4 times a day. As for my face it has always been very oily so I'm still trying to figure out this dryness lol I'm using Neutrogena hydro boast for moisturizer but I feel like it doesn't last that long. Or maybe I'm expecting to much lol If anyone has any suggestions on a good moisturizer let me know!
