BeclovesTeenVogue, you asked about how to sooth red, irritated skin caused by Accutane. I asked dermatologist Jeanette Graf for some help! Here, her response:

“Accutane does a great job in clearing up acne, but it can be quite drying to the skin.  In addition, past breakouts can result in redness which can remain for months after completing Accutane treatment. Both of these problems will resolve gradually over time. Plus, using calming moisturizers such as Aveeno Ultra-Calming Cream or Eucerin Anti-Redness products can be quite helpful as well.” 

Bec, another line that I love, Avene, has a great product too… Their Redness Relief Soothing Cream is super soothing! Visit drugstore.com to purchase any of the aforementioned products… 

All partied out and ready for your winter break? Here, some holiday jet-set tips from Fekkai Celebrity Stylist Adir Abergel:

1. Don’t forget your travel plug to use your hairdryer and other electric hairstyling equipment whilst abroad.

2. Hair grips and bands are an extremely useful item to have on holiday and offer a quick-fix solution for hair care problems.

3. Make sure to wash your hair after swimming in the ocean or the salt will dry your hair out! If you’re in the pool, do the same to rinse out the chlorine.

4. A great holiday hairstyle is an upswept pompadour with loose, pretty waves, The loose waves will remind you of the 1930’s era while the upswept pompadour in the front will give you an edge even Gwen Stefani would be impressed by!

5. Make sure to pack a good shampoo and conditioner and avoid the complimentary ones found in hotels, they’re usually way too harsh.
