Hello, I am on day 2 of my 4th accutane course. It's been about 8 years or so since I took my previous accutane course so I have forgotten a lot. I wear makeup daily, and already have a favorite moisturizer, however I will need to switch asap because it's clean and clear which has salicylic acid in it. I love it because it doesn't make my makeup melt off from being thick and greasy. I need something else that will care for my skin while on accutane, yet still allow me to wear makeup as usual. Suggestions for a light moisturizer?

Also, I remember when I did my last 3 accutane courses, my main problems were reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally dry eyes, even developed pink eye once, so I had to keep drops in them constantly. I believe I used ReNew liquidgel drops in the green bottle back then. I was just wondering if there is something even better now?

Thanks guys! I am sad that I started breaking out again after being clear all that time, but fortunate to be able to go back on another accutane course. I believe my breakouts are due to messed up hormones after having two children. My hormones are just outta whack and I am sure of it because I have horrible PMS, no libido, and other symptoms of crazy hormones. Luckly and amazingly though, I had no acne during either pregnancy! Go figure! =) Gotta be thankful for that.

Systane eye drops work wonders for me. It is specifically made for severe dry eyes. Im on my third course of tane and still have not found a moisturizer that is moisturizing enough, but Im okay with that, I have severely oily skin without being on auccutane, but I use oil of OLay moisturizer and then I use physicians formula with spf 50 moisturizer on top.
