Egyptian Magic and Accutane?

I've been on Accutane for a few weeks now, and I've experienced dry skin and chapped lips. I've been using Egyptian Magic and I'm wondering if it's safe (as in, it's not counteracting the Accutane by clogging my pores). My skin hasn't cleared up yet, and I know it takes time, but it seems as though I have more acne than what I started with. Coincidence?

    some times your skin has to adjust to the new products your using so just give the Accutane time to take affect on your skin, & also ask your doctor if its ok to use the Egyptian Magic and see if he/she can prescribe you something to help with the dryness, in the mean time just keep using things that will help with your dry skin and chapped lips .. always carry plenty chapstick, goodluck :)
