accutane shopping spree

Transcript

I signed my iPad today and decided I'm doing another round of Accutane. So I'm gonna go shopping for all the essentials. First thing I'm gonna grab is some Zyrtec, antihistamines, can help with the purge. Then some fish oil. I'm gonna order it on Amazon though because they put a bunch of extra stuff in here. And then skincare. We're gonna keep it super, super simple. Your skin is super dry and sensitive on Accutane, so we're gonna do this La Roche-Posay hydrating gentle cleanser. Your skin is super dry and sensitive on Accutane, so we're gonna do this La Roche-Posay hydrating gentle cleanser. And then La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream. And I've heard amazing things about the Cicaplast Balm B5+ so I'm gonna start with the smaller one because I've never tried it before. I wear makeup very often, so I'm gonna get this Prequel oil cleanser. I've used this before and I just think that this will be better than like any of my stellar oils. And then this is a tried and true for me for my hair and I'm just gonna restock on this. I also wanna grab a hair scalp serum, but I can't find one here, so I'll have to get that later. In the meantime, I'm gonna grab one of these Vaseline. For body, I'm gonna grab this Vaseline Advanced Repair. And then just one of these Aquaphor as well. I think I got everything I needed. Let's check out. Honestly, not the sexiest products, not the most exciting haul ever. However, these products get the job done, okay? I'll probably grab some nasal spray and some more eye drops as well, to get a little closer. But I'm gonna start using all this stuff now to just prepare for the dehydration, okay? I love you. You can do hard things. We're gonna do this together.

I’m sorry if you understand this. #acnestruggles #acne #gettingreadywithacne
