Has anyone tried some new things?
I have a very oily skin, and in about a week I will be on accutane. I hope someone has a good tip. |

QUOTE(Solid_Snake @ Jan 1 2003, 03:23 PM) [snapback]8164[/snapback] I've tried the follow brands: -Purpose Dual Purpose (Non-AHA) -Cetaphil w/ SPF 15 -Clean and Clear (with 0.5% Salacylic Acid) -Neurtogena Oil-Free Moisture w/ SPF 15 All of them work ok, but make my face shiny and oily. So for now, it's either have a shiny face or a flaky white face  My conclusion is that I have combo skin, with the oily areas being my forehead and T-zone. Any suggestions for a moisturizer would be most appreciated.-Snake I have similar skin as you and I just began using Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel (combination oily to oily). I have used it a few times and so far, I like it. It feels nice and doesn't make my face appear oily, even when putting a bit more.

QUOTE(CHICKLET @ Jan 3 2003, 07:22 AM) [snapback]8360[/snapback] do a very good moisturizer, it is aloe vera, vit e and vit a in one, and it doesnt make u break out, or make your face shiney at all. aloe vera is half-decent as a moisturizer - at one point i would put one layer, let it dry, then put another layer, let that dry, etc. until the dryness was gone - sadly it's not very effective, although it might be moreso when you first use it.

=================================================== Skin Type: white/tanned, mild/moderate and highly persistant acne, some whiteheads and non-inflamed acne (rarely cysts), redmarks last for about 2-12 months. Combination skin (very oily and dry at the same time) and sensitive. =================================================== CURRENT REGIMEN: day - OC8 night - Differin 0.1 (retinoid) cleanser - Cetaphil mild cleanser "softens as it cleans" =================================================== CURRENT RESULTS: 15 September, 2009 Differin saved my skin! My main problem these days is oily skin. OC8 works well, but it's too expensive and I'm running out. Thinking about getting Milk of Magnesia (MOM) to apply topically. Suggestions welcome. =================================================== |

Cerave makes a good moisturizer, you might want to give that a shot. Of all the moisturizers I have used, that leaves me the least shiny.

I hope someone has a good tip. I really recommend Desert Essence Organic Jojoba oil for everyone but especially for you... from what i understand you cant use bp or sa on ur face when ur on accutane so just 4-6 drops of jojoba oil gently rubbed on damp face after cleansing will moisten the hell out of your face... its not greasy if u dont use too much and u can always pat ur face afterwards but neways its great and most everyone who tries it loves it, some breakout at first because it supposidly cleans clogged pores but i never had the problem i just love the stuff. I dont even use a regular moisturizer... i wash my face, put the jojoba oil on then my sa medications a pearl sized Fruit of the Earth 100% aloe vera and my face has never been dry (i do have oily skin). Hope this helps

Id say either use complex15, theres this one from Sephora. Its a Bare Essentials moisturizer with Glycolic Acid or Id say use fruit of the earth aloe vera as recommended to me by Hyrpid Spade (although I havent used it yet, I will buy some tomorrow).

You need to mix Aloe Vera gel with your favorite moisturizer. Some may find the gel alone moisturizing enough but not me.

This stuff:
Garnier Nutritioniste Daily Regenerating Skin Renew Moisture Lotion http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp...amp;catid=10394 This is by far the best moisturizer I have ever used. It is oil-free, doesn't clog pores, and is light. Works well with any acne medication absorption wise. Improves skin tone too. The best part though? OIL FREE SHINE. I get absolutely no increase in oil production on my skin afterwards....it looks like I never even used a moisturizer! (oil wise) I love it so much I just picked up their cleanser today too. |

But what is the best facial mosturizer for combo skin while on Accutane?
And is the Vitamin A in the aloe vera gel safe for your face while on Accutane? |
