JENN'S ACCUTANE JOURNAL

WEEK 9

Week of Nov. 17 thru Nov. 23, 2001

This was another off week!

My neck still hasn't cleared or even shown signs of improvement and what is worse is that my neck and jawline seem to be the places where my red marks won't heal. I attribute this to the fact that it can't heal with more and more pimples popping up there. So know I am going to change my pillowcase cover every other night just in case, and also apply the Cleocin T since I have found that changing my regime to the Vita-K stuff probably wasn't too smart. I've decided I should stop worrying about the red spots and let the vitamin E take care of that and instead just worry about getting anymore pimples which will repeat the cycle and just give me more red spots to worry about.

My face on the other hand is still basically clear except for 3 tiny pimples. This is the problem I'm running into. I always have 2 or 3 on my face. Since they are so tiny and bump-like I can cover them with make-up easily but it is still disappointing that they are even still there!

Lately I've been obsessing over having these pimples because I was hoping to be clear by month 2 since I saw such drastic initial results. It's weird because 2 months ago I would have killed to have the skin I have now but I guess its just human nature to get greedy!

The only new side-effects I have noticed this week are the patches of dry skin on my arm. This is because I was lazy and stopped applying moisturizer to my body for a while. I still am not really dry or even using moisturizer on my face. I think this is because I don't use make-up that much and when I do I obviously try not to use powder which causes my skin to look flaky after awhile.

That's about all for now!
