STOPPED ACCUTANE AFTER 8 DAYS

Good shot. In my opinion the risk is definitely not worth the reward with Accutane! As for much safer acne treatments look into Skinoren gel or Benzoyl Peroxide.

Seriously , help me (w/ lots pics)

Start using Benzoyl Peroxide (acne.org regimen) or Skinoren gel. That will help you clear up.  Also switch the Cetaphil cleanser for Cerave Hydrating Cleanser. Good luck.

How to PROPERLY use Tazorac? PLEASE HELP.

Tazorac is not good for your skin. Stop using it IMMEDIATELY. Get on BP or Skinoren they don't damage your skin long term like Tazorac do! BP and Skinoren are also much better for fighting acne.
