Answers:
Eucerin is the best - they make body cream, and a lotion that is GREAT for your face!. It moisterizes well, but it not greasy afterwards!. I use it twice a day (just finished my accutane)!. You'll need Carmex, or another good lip balm!. My lips are still dry, but they are getting a little better!. Saline helps with the nasal dryness!. If you get nosebleeds (I did), put a drop of Vitamin E oil in each nostril before bed, or coat with Vasaline!. Genteal at night works great for your eyes, and Soothe or Blink tears during the day (all available otc)!. I wore my glasses all through my treatment, as contact lenses irritated my dry eyes!. They weren't too bad with my glasses and drops!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Neutragena makes a non oily lotion that is great for this problem but continue the accutane unless it becomes a real issue!. I had the same problem with acne I used Accutane and it prevented scaring of my face!. I had a friend whose mother didn't care about her acne and she has scars all over her face from the acne!. Take Care!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

always have chapstick with you!. use a lot of lotion!. i usedd eucceran!. it doesnt clog pores!. stay out of the sun!. use a good spf as you will burn easily!. just drink a lot of water and keep your skin hydrated!. i was on accuatane for 4 years on and off, nothing worked as good as that medication!. good luck with all that, dont stay on it for too long tho because i am addicted to chapstick!. i wish i wasnt, but my lips seriously feel like they are always chapped!. it takes 7 months for it to get out of your system, ive been off of it for longer than that, and my problem is getting a little better!. thank god :P
anyway, good luck hunWww@Answer-Health@Com

I'm currently on my second trial of Accutane and I've been using three things!. I use Burt's Bee's Chapstick which works really well!. DCT is another type of lip balm that works really well!. I use Aveeno non-scented moisturizer on my face!. It helps if you put it on right after you get out of the shower!. I also use a moisturizing body wash which really helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
