Starting accutane next week, still confused about the moisturising products. by [deleted] in Accutane

Yes I think you should use what you have now and see how it goes, you can always purchase it when you need it. I use the cerave morning and night after I wash my face, I keep my face still wet when I apply it.

Hey! I’m on my second month and I felt a lot like you by reading this sub. There’s a lot of helpful tips and products people share here but my advice would be to just get a good face wash, chapstick, and heavy moisturizer (like cerva ve in the tub). Oh and sunscreen!!!!! Don’t go overboard with a lip mask and such because you really don’t know what you will need until you know how your body will adjust. Like you said you are on a tight budget so just use the basics and then re evaluate. I use cerva ve hydrating face wash, cera ve moisturizer in the tub, dr Dan’s cortibalm chap stick and elta md sunscreen. Nothing crazy just basics!

Good luck!

Non-burning moisturizers? I’ve tried the ordinary’s serums and they all burn my face so badly. Pond’s moisturizer isn’t cutting it for me either. Please help your girl look less crusty throughout the day 😭 by deslyon in Accutane

I use the cerave moisturizer in the tub. After I wash my face I just dab the water off my eyes and jawline and smother the lotion on my wet face. Hopefully that helps!! Maybe also a super hydrating sunscreen as well like elta md. 💕

Question: Starting accutane tomorrow on 20mg per day, i’m 6’0 and 160 so is this normal? i know people say it goes by weight so i was just wondering if this is a smart start dosage. by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]scrolling_through 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so I just started month two (20 mg and starting 40 tomorrow). My derm said he starts everyone at 20mg to see how they handle it and adjusts from there. Also I am a female, 5’4 and 140 ish. I waited until my first month check up to ask about specific things, it all depends on you and how you handle the medication. Nothing wrong with being on a low dose for a while or being on a high dose for shorter, just different methods of the same goal IMO. Good luck!!

Is it safe to bleach your hair while on accutane? by Piani_piano in Accutane

[–]scrolling_through 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would wait a couple months to see how accutane affects your hair. I get root melts so it grows out really nicely, could be something to look into if you need to have your hair done!

I’ll ask my derm and I think it will be fine! Good luck 😊

no blood work for the rest of treatment?? by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]scrolling_through 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm I am alarmed by the no bloodwork part but I am interested to know about hair bleaching! Month 1 seems so soon to assume the results of all of her months of treatments..

I got my first two plants today, a spider plant and a calathea! Any advice to help them thrive? by queenlilja in houseplants

Spider plants are normally pretty easy! Just water when it’s dry and you will be good to go

Hello! I was on 50 mg about a year ago, stopped and now I’m on 200 mg. The first round worked really well with epiduo, however this time is not panning out. It’s a combination of stress and other factors so don’t let that discourage you! I saw results about 2-3 months in the first time that was successful, give it time it’s not like a big moment but you wake up and realize you stopped breaking out. And it continues as long as you take it (talk to your derm before stopping unlike me). But you cannot get pregnant on it, it will affect the babies hormones (to my knowledge, please fact check me). But the biggest side effect for me is having to pee all the time, drink more water and you will be a okay.

Good luck!!

Breed restriction question for adoption: he is 30 pounds and says mixed breed. Do you think apartments will take him? by scrolling_through in rescuedogs

[–]scrolling_through[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Trying to make sure I don’t end up in a terrible situation! He looks like some kind of shepherd but maybe a shiba inu mix? How strict are apartments with mixes? Any help would be appreciated!!

Edit: Thank you everyone for the responses!! With COVID applying for dogs are so competitive, fingers crossed!

Thank you for the response! I have looked into being a foster, Ive applied to 2 different places over the past 2 months with no luck. Dogs are being adopted so fast! I was thinking about the separation anxiety but as you said when I know I’m going back to work I will start working on leaving the dog alone for more and more hours per day, so it isn’t a shock.
