Pros * Natural
* Immune Booster
* THE ONLY THING THAT HAS WORKED!!!
Cons * None for me, but some people might not like taking 6 pills a day!
Bottom line My struggle with Acne has been a long battle. I have tried everything! I have done everything from expense creams, proactive, medication and the worst was accutane. I took Accutane when I was 15 (now 27) I had fairly severe acne. It helped but was not something for a long term solution. As I continued to age my skin would range from fair to moderate. I found Herpanacine 1 year ago and have never had such amazing skin! My acne is completely gone!!!! I wish that i knew of this product years ago! I continue to take the 6 pills a day as I don't want to change my skin care routine. I found that my moderate eczema on my elbows has also disappeared since taking this product! I recommend it to all my friends and clients. I have tried so many products ranging from inexpensive to take out a loan expensive. Give it a try, most people will give anything to have healthy skin!

Pros very good product, no side effects, clears up skin and detoxes the inside of the body too. Look for discount places to buy including Lucky [link removed]

Pros Works very well. I have tried numerous products before but have seen tremendous results with Herpanacine. I started taking 4 pills a day, but then moved up to 6. Try it, you wont regret it. I also drink a cup of decaf. green tea at night, and drink lots of water during the day, including lemon juice. (Lemon juice also works well for acne)
Cons Nothing.
Bottom line Try it! It's pricy. But I would pay for beautiful skin.

Pros Natural
It works
Cons Taking six pills a day (although I have never taken that many...not even in the beginning), and I still have seen tremendous results.
Bottom line This worked better for me than the harsh meds that my dermatologist prescribed me. My acne was severe enough that the next step (since the meds weren't working) was a prescription that required I be on birth control. I found this product, decided to try it, and saw quick results (even without taking the six pills suggested). I stopped taking them for awhile because I was just being lazy, and my face went crazy! Got back on, and they went right to work and cleared my skin up again. These are the best results I've seen, and I have tried many doctor prescribed solutions.

Pros Natural, no side affects and excellent for hormonal adult acne. I have had great instant and long term results. This is an incredible product!
Cons None. Only $21 at Whole Foods. Other than a tube of Clearsil, it is the cheapest acne medication I have ever purchased.
Bottom line I am 39 years old and have battled acne my whole life. The body acne it the worst. I hated summer! But I love it now! This is great product. But you do have to take several pills initially. 6 per day for severe acne. I took 4 (2 in am 2 in the afternoon), and experienced great results. Now I take 3 per day. I try to stay away from acidic foods (tomatoes, coffee etc...), easy on the sugar and heavy on the exercise. All the details make all the difference.

Pros this has worked "great" for my son's acne
Bottom line We spent one year going to a dermatologist trying different products for my son's acne. Initially the products seemed to be working but then stopped. We also tried Proactiv. I found this product at the store and we saw results within a week. Other people say they have to wait months but that was not our experience. Unfortunately, this is not a "one size fits all" problem. Things that work for others, may or may not work for you. This is worth trying - a lot healthier than Acutane.

Pros Boosts the immune system while providing great anti-oxidants
Cons Broke my skin out even worse than it was before/Expensive
Bottom line I have hormonal acne which is caused by a hormonal imbalance. I have been told the only way to cure this is birth control before it eventually goes away on it's own. I did not want to stay on the pill so I went off it, even though it worked great. Months later when I started breaking out again, I wanted to find a safe, natural alternative. I saw this and thought I would give it a try. Although I FEEL better and my skin glows, my acne only got worse. I have no doubt that it works, and I will probably go back to using it once I grow out of this hormonal imbalance issue. But for those who have acne strictly related to hormones...this won't do the whole trick :( Great product though, for sure!

Pros Glowing Skin
Cons Broke Out - I think I might have a sensitivity to Vitamin A
Bottom line I think I may have an allergy or something to Vitamin A (I cant use Retinoids either - they give me cystic acne) but I thought Id give this a shot. I did start breaking out a couple of weeks after I started using it - but it wasn't worse than I already had - just different and possible a bit more cystic but I'm glowing like crazy. Somebody actually thought I might have gotten engaged just because I was glowing so much. If you don't have a sensitivity to Vitamin A I'm sure this stuff Rocks!

Pros It includes a good variety of vitamins and minerals in the formula which can help with your immune system. i
Cons In the longggggg four months that I was using this stuff I did not see ANY improvement in my skin. I don't want to rain on anyones parade but I wish someone told me six months ago to not waste my time in money. After reading reviews I thought I had finally found the miracle supplement... Unfortunately this was not the case. I took the recommended six pills a day religously and it only seemed to make my skin worse. I probably spent almost $200 on this vitamin A and lysine!...Wackkkkkkkk
Bottom line Save yourself some pain and suffering and get on accutane! I have been on it for almost four weeks and my skin is almost completely clear... If I had started my treatment with accutane 6 months ago when I was wasting my time with herpanacine I would already almost be through my course :( all well you live and you learn
