Hi,
I was on Accutane for 6 months and completed my course about February this year. In terms of spots I have very few now, if any at all, however one of the side effects is that I have very oily skin.
It looks greasy, oily and shines a lot in the sun. While I'd certainately rather have this than acne, it would be nice if there was some sort of method of making it look normal again.
I use an oil-free moisturiser and I cleanse every so often. What should I do? Cheers!

I'll guess we'll just have to adjust.

Oh and I have also used jojoba oil in the past, great for dry skin, now I'm getting the complete opposite!

I find this stuff called oc8 mattifying gel helps - http://www.pharmacy2u.co.uk/oc-eight-oc8--...m_campaign=main
It says it can keep u shine free for 8 hours, but i think that generaly depends how oily you are. For a more rough estimate it will probably do a good 5 hours imo.
Anyway hope that helps you.
