Fish oil, vitamin A and B complex all caused a major breakout. I REALLY don't get it, cause they have helped so many other people.

Evening primrose oil (alone) used to be my go-to supplement, but I bought a new brand (but still cold pressed/hexane free) and it gave me cysts!

So now I'm just really confused....I have been thinking about take the fish oil and EPO together cause that's what everyone says you are supposed to do, but I'm nervous...

Anyone have any suggestions? or in the same boat??

Thanks!

oh and by the way I eat a good diet, green smoothie every morning, I try to stay away from dairy, fast food, and sugar.

Are you SURE those supplements made you break out..it could have been something else? Anyways, I don't solely rely on supplements to clear my acne, as I take an eclectic approach. People have often found Vit. D3 and Zinc (optizinc or monothionine) very helpful...try those.

It all depends on the quality of the fish oil. My sister used a cheaper brand broke out, then bought a more expensive brand and her skin has cleared up and she has a lovely skin tone now.

I started using it with my accutane course and its making my skin glow.
its called Nordic Naturals, Omega 3D it has vitamin D in it as well. he lady in the vitamin shop told me its a brilliant quality of fish oils. And the best selling I LOVE IT.

I also use a good quality Vitamin E. And you wot blieve he condition of my skin since i stated using them both. Heres are the pills.

I'm pretty sure because nothing else changed when I took those.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to look into it!
