Hello everyone
Well it’s day 15 and I think that the effects of the Roaccutane have really kicked in. I have had a serious breakout, worse than I have ever seen my face look before… have very dry lips and nose and my scalp is really dry. I have also had a few bad headaches and am finding it hard to sleep. However, despite all the moaning, and hideous breakout, I am feeling reassured that at least things are happening, and each day is a step closer to lovely clear skin. Can’t wait for the breakout phase to be over…any ideas on how long it lasts?
Had a great weekend…spent most of it in London. Me and my on/off boyfriend were having an ‘on’ phase and spent lots of time shopping, eating and going to bars. Had a few drinks and felt absolutely fine…my derm said that alcohol is OK as long as it is not too often and in moderation.
It’s great to catch up with everyone’s progress…keep going guys!

P.S Try Vaseline with Aloe Vera…it’s great for soothing for the lips (and up the nose!) and smells really nice too.
