Okey, so I'm going on Accutane for the first time tomorrow.

What should I do/ not do? :P

Also, how often should I shower?

Should I moisturize my face from day 1?

Will the acne.org moisturizer do?

Should I moisturize my hands?

Thanks :)

I used to shower everyday (pre-accutane) but now bath twice a week. I used to wash my hair everyday to but I don't need to do that everyday either as it's so dry.

Yes, I'd get into the habit of moisturising from day 1

Sorry, I've ever used the acne.org moisturiser

And yes, yes, YES moisturise your hands!!

Feel free to message me if you have any questions, I have less than a week left of my 5 and a half month course and the results are amazing. I feel great and you will too soon, good luck :)

When i was on accutane, i still maintained my usual 2 showers a day (Morning and night).

Moisturize from day one, because out of no where your face will go as dry as the desert. ( And to help prevent to first breakout)
