I use this stuff which has bisabolol in it which helps redness http://www.yestocarrots.com/product/yes-to-tomatoes-daily-repair-treatment?product_id=2311199 It also has 1% salicylic acid and witch hazel in it, I don't know if you would want to use that with accutane because it's for oily skin. Aloe also moisturizes, soothes, and helps redness. I use this http://www.jason-personalcare.com/product/aloe-gel-tube A lot of brands have lots of bad stuff in them and hardly any aloe so you have to pick carefully. I also like using green tinted makeup primer. Have you tried using a sunscreen that has zinc oxide?

My skin never really liked sal acid pre tane, not sure if it would cause more dryness/redness now

BUT thanks for the recs

tried aloe in the past and didnt do much for me..but think my skin could benefit from it more now

thanks, kim

I've been using Lush Fresh Farmacy cleanser for the past two weeks and have yet to notice a difference in redness, but it doesnt irritate me so that's good. I'll keep at it once a day and just see how it fares.

Also bought some FOTE aloe vera today after seeing all the good reviews, so am going to use that on my face tonight -- I'll let you know how it goes!
