It’s been so long So, my last appointment was on July 11th 2014, it was a big day for me, they told me to finish the last of my accutane, which was maybe around 4 days worth and then to stop them completely. It’s been 180 days since then. My skin is AMAZING. I have the odd spot at the moment but I think that’s due to stress over the holiday period, but nothing like what it was before. My skin is clear, no red blotches under the skin and I’ve stopped being sensitive to small scratches, I used to have red marks for days when playing with the puppy, now I don’t at all. I don’t have a webcam atm, but I’ll get some photos later today 5 years ago

Sorry for the picture being on its side. My phone is stupid. I went to the derm on the 11th hoping to be told I could come off the accutane. And guess what? I can! I just have to take what I had remaining from my last prescription. About 4 days worth. So I should be officially coming off on Tuesday. I’d like to do a big post then, but we’ll see if I have time. Generally though. Accutane is sketchy as hell. But it works. Love x 6 years ago

Hello all, Once again I’m sporting a lovely stye in my eye. I’ve had two since being on accutane. Booo 6 years ago

Hi Guys So this is my last month on accutane, my last appointment will be on the 11th July. It’s weird, I feel scared of coming off them, the mood swings, the bad lips, the sore skin, the weird appetite, it’s all been worth it to know that my skin is getting better, but what if I come off them and my skin gets worse again, then it’s all been for nothing? I worry too much. My lips are a cracked, bloody mess, I have to asses the chapstick situation every time before I kiss my boyfriend. I also swear that the tablets have made me more emotional during my periods. I never used to be like this and now I cry if I can’t open a jar. Blergh. this is a queued post so I’ll pop some pictures up after it’s posted. Love love love x 6 years ago

Pain in the lips My lips are soooo sore… even my boyfriends niece (at two years old) pointed out the state of them last night. It’s incredibly depressing. My skin is looking amazing. I don’t have to have a blood test this month so last night I drank a bottle of wine. I swear the accutane makes my tolerance like zero percent. 6 years ago

seriously though guys, my skin is being amazing, the cetaphil moisturiser is the best thing ever, no more flakey skin, will definitely be keeping that, even once I’m off accutane, perfect for winter skin. I either use vaseline or nivea on my lips and they are fine now. I have a few red marks under my right eye, but other than that my skin is pretty amazing right now :D 6 years ago
