[B&A] One month into Accutane

Beauty Tips For Body Care
So for about 2 years. I'd wake up with these horrible white spots on my nose. They could get as bad as this. I tried everything from various skin products, various anti biotics - but nothing worked.I was hesitant to try Accutane, as I suffer with depression and I was at uni - I didn't want to risk messing up my studies. I've just graduated and thought "Enough's enough. I'm 22. I'm bored with acne".So took the plunge and went on Accutane. My normal GP couldn't prescribe it, and the waiting list on free healthcare to be seen was like 9 months! My mum gave me the number for a private GP and went to see him.It cost £150 for the blood tests and also the consultation fee, then another £130 to actually get the prescription. That really sucks. But it should be worth it. Taking 40mg dailyAnyway, this is me now only a month into the treatment. A few other breakouts here and there. Lip and scalp dryness are a pain - but it should all be worth it. Looking forward to seeing the end results.AMJust washing face with waterApplying CeRave PMSunscreenAccutane 20mgPMCeRave hydrating cleanserCerAve PMEvery 3 days using Nizoral shampooAccutane 20mgLoads of Carmex and Vaseline throughout the day.Going to do a 5/6 month course, then off backpacking! I'm weary that Accutane can make you photosensitive. So I'd like to stop Accutane at least a month before I go! Although my brother went an Accutane and was fine in the sun.
