Been taking Monodox 75mg twice daily, started July 8th. I started on Tazorac cream 0.05% July 15th.

In the morning, I wash with skineffects gentle foaming cleanser, then moisturize with Olay complete SPF 15. Midday if I stop at home, I wash with the cleanser and remoisturize. If not, I wash with water and remoisturize. Then at night, I wash with the cleanser, moisturize, and apply a pea size amount of Tazorac.

I was prescribed the Monodox/Tazorac combo a couple months back, and did it for about a week on several different occasions and quit each time. After I quit the last time, my face broke out really bad. I hope that's the IB, and I don't break out badly on week 4-6 of this "start". I'm determined to keep up with it and finally get rid of my acne! BTW I'm 22, with moderate acne- enough that it hurts my self confidence.

Will be updating so you can see the progress!

Week 1- Face feels tingly, stings at times. Dry, can see peeling as well. Red spots on cheeks where acne is dominant. Area under eyes and around lips especially dry. Will post pictures later!
