I did a 4 month course of accutane 3.5 years ago. It worked amazingly well- cleared me up straight from the beginning and stopped all my overzealous oil. The only side effect that was difficult to manage was the severe drying of my lips. I originally tried Aquaphor but my lips could not tolerate it and ended up swollen, blood red, and more irritated. Dr. Dan's Cortibalm did little to nothing. My derm gave me samples of a Rx hydrocortisone ointment to last my course because my lips were visibly swollen and irritated.
I will be doing another course in a month and I'm wondering what people are using to combat the chapped lips? I'm sure that at some point I will need the Rx ointment again but I am just curious what people are using right now.

I'm not vegan but a lot of my friends are and they introduced me to nutritional yeast. My friends put in everything, sprinkle it on top of snacks etc. I don't use it regularly but I do keep a bottle of red star on hand. Just wondering how other people feel about nutritional yeast? Do you think it could have a negative impact on skin? I mean it's chock full of B vitamins but I 'm not sure...

after some research I finally invested in vivant's 15% mandelic serum. Purchased from dianayvonne.com. I love the mandelic serum and that site has great customer service- but they don't carry that many Vivant products. I am thinking about purchasing their spf 15 moisturizer and the spin trap. Wondering if anyone has purchased from betterhealthyskin.com? I see that they carry a full line of Vivant. Thanks!

Thanks for commenting! I actually use lily of the desert aloe vera that you have to order from offline and keep in the fridge. I know the black soap is really drying but I thought the aloe mixed with two drops of jojoba oil would help. :-( oh well. Anyways, I love your hair btw! My hair is natural as well. :-) 20 Apr 2009 - 14:49 Last Visitors
