I'm currently taking isotretinoin 20 mg and I'm looking for a more budget-friendly alternative to the Ahaglow S face wash and Acne OC moisturizer. My skin is acne-prone and I'm hoping to find something affordable that still works well. Do you have any suggestions?

you can try using Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser. It is gentle on the skin and helps in controlling excess oil production. As for a substitute for Acne OC moisturizer, you can consider using Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel. It is suitable for acne-prone skin and provides the necessary hydration without clogging pores. Since you are currently using isotretinoin 20 mg, it is important to choose products that are gentle on the skin to avoid any irritation.
