My face has been getting ridiculously hot and red lately. I changed from 40mg to 60mg of accutane last week, so I'm guessing that's the culprit. The strange thing is, that my face looks pretty normal during the morning, but at around lunch time every day, it changes and gets bright red. Like more than tomato red. I've had 3-4 people a day ask me what happened to my face, and how I got so sun burned. I moisturize every morning and lunch with spf 15 moisturizer, and the last week has been overcast and raining every day, so it isn't the sun. I tried walking around in a tee shirt for a bit today in the cold weather to see if I could cool off my face at all. It seemed to work, but returned 10 minutes after going back to class. I need help, I'm so sick of this. Any tips are appreciated!!
