Hi, I have recently been prescribed isotretinoin which has really started to dry my skin out. My current moisturizer is not helping at all and I am really fussy about which moisturisers I use as most seem to break me out in spots. Are there any that you could recommend for me? Thanks.

I found Soothe from Rodan and Fields or CeraVE the best for when my skin was flaking adjusting to BP.

My skin tends to flake as well (it is combination dehydrated sensitive). I did find out that going for Korean skincare and layering did help me a lot. Also, except from washing oils, I had very little problems of Korean skincare causing breakouts. Basically I do: wash/double cleanse (gentle cleansers); toner, medical product, essence, serum or a few (goes from most acidic to least, from thickest to thinnest), moisturizer or a few (for example, aloe gel under moisturizer), for night - moisturizing overnight mask, for day - SPF product. It does work, impressively, and it is quite cheap. I noticed a difference in a week - less redness, almost no flaking. I am in love in Mizon moisturizers, Cosrx essences, some Mizon, some Cosrx serums.
