What's new: One small active pimple on jawline. Little pimple on lip line.
My face: Only the small pimple on jawline and small bump on lipline (not visible). I still have about 5 red marks on my jawline from old pimples. Face isn't dry anymore at all. Redness is going away. Haven't seen an IB since I upped my dose from 40-60mg/day.
Everything else: Nothing new. Side effects are very minimal: sometimes some pain in lower back after sitting in one place for too long, and when I go on a run, places on my arms burn a little which I assume is from sweat getting in dry skin patches? That only happens on the back of my shoulder/upper arm area. It goes away once I stop sweating. Not a big deal.
Since I started accutane I hadn't done anything to my eyebrows, no waxing, which I usually do (but can't on accutane), and no plucking b/c I usually don't have to. So they were a mess. On Sunday, I went to an eyebrow threading place for the first time. And it was great. No irritation of the skin at all, no burning - just clean shaped eyebrows. And, it took under 2 minutes. It was great. I'll never go back to waxing my eyebrows.
