Day 17.....dry Nose And Eyes Are Killing Me!

Posted by lilbee, 31 July 2012 · 213 views

So day 17 into the isotretonin..... skin looks the same ( normal amount of pimples) but i'm very dry around the edge of my nose and bottom of my chin.  The thing that is annoying me the most is how dry my nose is inside.  I wake up in the middle of the night and its quite sore - same with my eyes.  Another side affect is that im feeling like its making my hair grow much quicker than normal - I have heard of hair falling out but I swear as soon as I shave my legs or  underarms the hair is right back there the next day, normally it would take at least 3 days before it starts to grow back.  Has anyone else had that experience?  Lips are very dry but not flaking yet, I swear I have been applying my Aquaphor 30+ times a day!

I have found my skin can look a little red at times but nothing a green colour corrector primer from Loreal can't fix!

So far so good but Im really only a tiny way into the journey 17 out of 150 days.  Heres hoping for a smooth ride!

Aww.. Dont worry we're all in the same boat, just remember 6 months is a short period of time considering the length of time acne has affected me. Currently I am on day 25 and face is just getting clearer and cleared. However. the red marks left from picking are becoming more evident but my skin is definitely a lot more smoother. Good luck!
