Hi, I am a 23 year old female who's always had a perfect skin until 2 years ago, and I suddenly starting breaking out, they go and come until my derm put me on accutane, 20 mgs the first two months, I am 55 kg, and I am not sure what my final dose will be. My skin started looking like this 2 weeks ago, I am on week 7 now, is it normal? Can my foundation or concealer be the reason? I am not dry at all. Also how severe is my acne? It is only on the cheeks.Thank you

Get rid of all of your oil based make up. Any liquid foundations... Throw them away. They clog your pores. Like seriously, I can't explain how bad it is for you. (Apologies if you already knew this, but surprisingly some people don't) I gave bare minerals a try. It's pricey but so much better for your skin and the concealer is really good too. I've used it for about a year and never looked back.

Break outs are normal when you take tablets, it's generally one of the side effects so just hold on a little longer. It'll soon clear up :) just gotta be positive and take each day as it comes :) Good Luck x
