Keeping Acne Skin Hydrated on Accutane: An Expert Weighs In
Accutane Made My Skin Dry, but These Products Solved the Problem
3
I've been using a few different moisturizers since going on Accutane. It's tricky to choose just one best moisturizer for Accutane as it all depends on the texture and how I want my skin to feel after, which is different at night than during the day, and whether it's winter or spring. However, there are a few products I consider to be the best moisturizers for acne-prone skin. The Indeed Labs Hydraluron Intense Moisture Lotion and the CeraVe Facial Moisturizer are a bit thicker, and I prefer them for the colder months or at night.
For daytime, I switch to the Eau Thermale Avène Hydrance Light Cream. The fragrance-free formula feels little lighter on my face but is still quite rich; personally, I like looking constantly dewy, so in general I favor a richer cream.
Products to try:
Indeed Labs Hydraluron Intense Moisture Lotion ($16)
CeraVe Facial Moisturizer ($15, originally $20)
Eau Thermale Avène Hydrance Light Cream ($28, originally $42)
