runawayonachaingang 2 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Like topic says, I have a shiny face and am looking for a moisturizer to help with this. Of course since I'm taking Accutane it would have to be compatible with Accutane and hopefully not pore blocking. Thanks for any advice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jujuy 5 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'm quite happy with with Avène's "Clean-Ac" moisturizer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
titoziot 23 Share Posted January 25, 2012 In terms of over the counter, well priced facial lotions - Olay's Complete Moisture for Combination Skin is a solid product. I've noticed all drugstores have Olay, but they don't all carry the one for Combination Skin. I've found it at K-Mart, if that helps. Cetaphil Facial Lotion is not good for oily skin. I say that because their cleanser is awesome while on Accutane, like me. But their lotion is greasy and doesn't moisturize oddly enough (which you do need while on Accutane!). Cerave AM Facial lotion (also sometimes hard to find) is what I use now in the morning. It's a good product too, but I feel Olay does more for the texture of my skin. No lotion really solves oily skin in my experience, just manages it or doesn't make it worse. Get some oil blotting sheets. You can find ELF brand anywhere, for 1$ you get 50. Hope this helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cormega 0 Share Posted January 29, 2012 this is a thread I made in the accutane forum. http://www.acne.org/messageboard/index.php/topic/309591-found-a-great-moisturizer/ I love this moisturizer and will never use anything else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
