Hi Lu!!
Glad to hear about the roaccutane, my friend was taking it at the beginning of this year and it's completely cleared her skin up but she did find that at the beginning, her skin flaked off, lips flaked, ears flaked, scapled flaked, everything flaked off.
She found t-gel good for her hair and I think she used oilatum shower gel and moisturiser and vaseline spf 15 for her lips. Every other moisturiser she bought she ended up discarding because it didn't work or it aggravated her skin too much...especially anything with a tanning ingredient in it.
Good luck with it all Lu.
