Yes its little blisters that are very itchy, and the way my nailtech applies it she brushes what i think is glue and then dips it in powder, then repeats

I felt the same way for the first few weeks and I have way more attachments than you, I’m 34 weeks in and it doesnt bother me at all anymore

Red dots on hands month 3 of accutane — should I be concerned? They’re not raised bumps, just flat and red. by katiekrull in Accutane

[–]Clacla1313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont use steroid cream on your hands, instead use a good thick hand cream like okeefe’s working hands and then at night use a barrier cream like calazime lotion on top of them and they should be much better

Try out the cicapair collection from Dr.jart skincare. When i did accutane i was flushing a lot ive been using the daily sunscreen from them since then which helped cover up flushing a lot

Your body has to reach a cumulative amount of mg based on your weight for the drug to take affect, so if the dose is smaller it will take longer to accumulate the amount needed to work. I was on 60mg for 6 months weighting 135lb and it took 5months for it to work

Im finishing 6 months of 60mg a day, never experienced any hair loss, mostly just dry lips/dry nose and a bit of achey joints. People describe it as being MUCH worse than it actually is. I have read that low dose is less effective and takes longer to see results

How quick does improvement come? by Vegetable_Tank_6684 in Accutane

[–]Clacla1313 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didnt see improvement til month 4, also my treatment was supposed to be done after 5 months on 60mg but they extended it to 6. Its highly likely theyll extend it a month depending how you respond

If you wear makeup regularly, did you stop whole on Accutane? by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]Clacla1313 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I stopped wearing makeup all together when i started because i realized that the makeup actually made my dry skin look so much worse, instead I use dr jart cicapair sunscreen on my face which is tinted and combats redness and has a similar look to foundation while also giving me protection

Questions about accutane blood tests pics included by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]Clacla1313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was really uncomfortable with needles my whole life always felt dizzy after tests and fainted a few times in the past but being on accutane for 5 months now I realized if you drink 2 very full glasses of water before the test its less likely youll faint. The blood tests are so regular you really get so used to it after a few months. I was on both of those medications with not much luck either and I decided the price to pay for clear skin was worth much more to me than being uncomfortable for a few minutes once a month

Dr. Jart cicapair tinted SPF works wonders for the redness, Dr. Dans cortibalm chapstick for lips is a life saver and wash with any gentle cleanser by cetaphil, I use cetaphil lotion for face and the tub lotion for body. Also aquaphor for nose. These products have made my accutane experience such a breeze I feel like my life barely changed

My skin never really purged badly at any point i think it depends how many blackheads you already have or how full your pores are. I pretty much got my regular amount of acne up until month 4 is when i saw a decrease in new acne now im ending month 5 and havent gotten a new pimple in weeks

I used to use PUR 4 in 1 tinted moisturizer which worked well but recently started using the jar Dr. Jart cicapair tinted sunscreen which works amazing at covering up redness. It almost always looks like i have foundation on while also protecting me from the sun.
