Cleansers
While on accutane your skin will get dry so you need cleansers that won't dry it more.
I use 2-3 pumps and massage into dry skin to melt away makeup, skincare and foundation.

This is a simple, gentle cleanser that doesn't strip your skin and that's very important. Helps you retain moisture.

I love to leave these on even during the day to stop myself from picking at my skin.
