Struggling with hormonal acne after insertion of mirena. on reacutane and doxy. can essential oil face cleanser be used to help with breakouts?

Oil is not likely : help. Consider cutting way back on simple carbohydrates, such as bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, or sugar. Benzyl perioxide cleanser might help as well. If not better talk to your doctor.
