WEEK 12? 13? 11??? Fuck it. Who cares, my forehead is clear. Well. Mostly clear. The bumps that riddled it are now gone. For now, I've stopped the Tactuo, because for one, it's fucking expensive, and ...

WEEK NINE Bah, so it's been what? Two weeks since my last update? The blackheads I was bitching about last time seem to be nothing of great significance. They're sort of just... there. There's maybe ...

Oh yeah. All the time. I try and just wash my face and get the hell out, but then I start looking at all the little blackheads and bumps. I prefer terribly lit bathrooms for this reason.

WEEK SEVEN (ALMOST): Hmm. That's all I can say. Hmm. I am not entirely impressed right now. Why, you ask? Well, I shall explain. My skin was improving. There were only a couple little bumps left on m...

WEEK FIVE. (I MEAN SIX.) WEEK SIX Well, things are looking pretty much the same since two weeks ago. Still steadily improving and what not. It's definitely just the last few clogged pores coming ...

nay, just the epiduo.

hey, i've been on the canadian version of epiduo for about a month now and i'm already seeing improvement ie.) smoother skin and way less bumps. week three was the worst for me. for the first bit i ...

happy to hear that you're seeing progress. i'm about a month in too and i'm finally starting to see/feel smooth skin as well instead of the surface of io.

WEEK FOUR HOLY SHIT. Let's just say that. HOLY SHIT. As I was applying my miracle elixir cream tonight, I had a revelation: my forehead is actually SMOOTH. SMOOTH!!! No more tiny little bumps coverin...

WEEK THREE (WHAAAAA?) Just a quick update. My skin is worse and better. How is this paradox possible, you ask? Well, it's worse as in all the little bumps are turning into large, unsightly zits, bu...

Okay cool thanks. It's so weird because this morning I woke up and had a patch of little pimples on my hand....it is so weird, i guess this drug is just that strong. Hopefully it completely goes away ...

Could be in a couple of weeks, could be in a couple of months, unfortunately. Everyone clears differently on accutane. Some people just start clearing up right away, and some people still have cysts...

WEEK TWO, DAY FOUR Waaaaaah I'm breaking out. (Small warning, this isn't going to be a positive post.) Well, the IB has started. Well, I don't really know if it's an IB, since the zits were already ...

cetaphil, cerave, ercerin (the one for the redness relief), complex 15, burt's bees (the sensitive skin formula.) i read on here somewhere that someone was using pure coconut oil as a moisturizer for...

Captain's Log. Stardate 18.06.13 It has been nearly two weeks, and the war still rages between Tactuo and the enemy known as “The Acne”, which has infiltrated the Forehead Zone. The right section of ...

Hey there, I too just began eipduo (well the Canadian version, tactuo, but same thing.) for the first couple of days I was using it every second day, but then decided to just go ahead and use it every...

Cetaphil is great for dryness! So is CeraVe. There's actually two versions of CeraVe, a lotion and a cream, so if your skin is desperately dehydrated, you can get the cream Both of those lotion bra...

congrats on starting accutane! to answer your questions about the side effects: well, it depends. some stuff like the dryness never goes away the entire time, although it gets more bearable. i don't...

@CrazyInternetMan: Yeah, we do have Shopper's in BC, unfortunately, the closest one is an hour and a half away. And my little town doesn't have a large selection in their drugstores. So I - having a...

well, i don't know what you mean by "drink a lot" but when I did drink on accutane (it wasn't often) i found that i had a way lower alcohol tolerance. i would also suggest if you were to drink, maybe...

thanks for the reply! i can't wait for the burning period. it sounds... fun

Hey there I've been keeping up with your log for about a week now. You seem like a very positive person, and I admire your dedication to healthy eating. I feel you on the picking front. I've recen...

@jennyband: Thanks for the suggestions on how to cheaply moisturize my skin lest my wonderful tube with the $120 paste in it begins to dry me out. Also, I don't find that bread or any "glutens" or wh...

Bahahaha... that SpongeBob picture is great! As for BB creams... well, I don't ever really use foundation, but on one occasion I had to dress up for a "50's night" and wanted a flawless complexion lik...

@jennyband: I think my mother was more upset about the car incident that I was. I was actually more upset about the $120 tube of cream. Wrecking the car was my fault, I went up a mountain with it an...
