Cleansers
My favorite non-drying, gentle cleansers that also remove makeup
Love this as much as the oil-bases version! This one might be better for slightly more oily skin, or if you are sensitive to oil-based products. Perfect for makeup removal!
Lipikar Wash AP+ Moisturizing Body & Face Wash
Tried and true! Never burns my skin and is great for removing face and eye makeup. Sometimes I use this by itself when I'm feeling lazy. Not pore clogging or stripping!!
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Skin Care Products
This is great for maintaining clear, balanced skin post-accutane!
Toleriane Purifying Foaming Facial Wash
This cleanser was a LIFE SAVER while on Accutane! It is completely different than your typical oil-based cleanser: this one foams up and doesn't really need a second cleanse afterwards. Totally non-stripping and also great for a mild body wash!
Lipikar AP+ Cleansing Oil for Face & Body
Moisturizers
Calming, hydrating, glowy moisturizers for day and night
Hear me out: this may look scary to use on your face, especially if you're acne prone. But I have been using this as a facial moisturizer at nighttime for years and it has never failed me!! Such great hydration without feeling greasy and heavy.
Intensive Moisturizing Cream for Dry Skin
This is the single best daily moisturizer I have ever used. It's perfect for anyone with normal/combination skin. So lightweight but feels like a drink of water for your skin! Absolutely no irritation while on Accutane either
Plum Plump Hyaluronic Cream
Toners
Hydrating, evening, firming, and purifying toners!
Love this stuff, if you're looking for a milky toner that's lightweight and non pore clogging, this is it!
TIRTIR Milk Skin Rice Toner Light 4% Niacinamide
This is a great milky toner that feels nourishing and non-greasy!
RESIST Advanced Replenishing Toner with Hyaluronic Acid
Post-accutane, this is great for maintaining fresh, clear skin
SKIN BALANCING Pore Reducing Toner
This is a great gentile exfoliating toner! Can be used on scalp and underarms as well!
Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner
Eye Creams
Brightening, filling, moisturizing eye creams
I have been loving this! The metal applicator feels amazing on under eyes, and if you're like me and struggle with hollow under eyes, this is a great solution!! It instantly brightens as well
Peptide Skinjection™ Fill + Fix Under-Eye Cream
I've been really liking this eye cream so far! Feels hydrating but super light
Peptide Eye Cream - Brighten The Look Of Dark Circles
So affordable, and effective! Feels lightweight and wakes up undereyes
Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel
Lip Treatment
Lip products that seriously hydrate!
This is amazing!! So underrated and has the best flavors. Their new Strawberry Rhubarb smells like a fresh baked pie while giving high doses of hydration to your lips!
Lip Treatment - Marine Glycoprotein-Powered to Hydrate, Soothe & Repair
Tried and true, this is what went on my lips every single night during my Accutane dose. You can't go wrong!!
Aquaphor Healing Ointment Advanced Therapy
While this isn't the most glamorous rec, it's probably the most helpful. Any sort of lip cracking from dryness disappears IMMEDIATELY with this stuff. Use sparingly as it is medicated, but this is a hidden gem for anyone on Accutane
Dr. Dan's Cortibalm - Dry Cracked Lips Balm
