I'm on the accutane for 40 days now, most of the worst acne has simmer down since i have IB on week 2.

I'm using cetaphil for daily washing twice a day, retin-a at night and cetaphil moisturizer.

btw is it ok for me to use retin-a then after 10mins i put on the moisturizer?

the acne breakout is not really severe but my skin colour makes it look awful,

and by awful i mean making me look like i have severe acne breakout.

it's because i have this really fair/pale skin colour

and most of the flat out acne retains its red marks, making my cheeks full of red marks.

Sadly, this isn't my first, or second or third try on accutane.

my dermatologist said that it's because i always stop completely after 5 months on accutane everytime,

and that i have to slowly reduce the intake of accutane from 1 day a pill to 2 days and then a week once

and continue on until flawless skin achieved.

its not that i didn't follow my dermatologist advise out of arrogance

but accutane is quite costly and i can't keep up the expenses unless needed

so yeahh, i could use some advise to reduce those red marks or scars

no makeup please! I'm a guy :)

I wouldn't use Retin-A while on Accutane.
