Also, if it caused acne, why would they put it in this supplement?

Just because a skin care company (who, may I add, wants you to not have good skin so you can continuously buy their product) has b12 doesnt mean anything. Theres plenty of companies for skin that have horrible ingredients, so I dont know if that side of the argument is entirely valuable.

I think the best thing to do, is get a blood test for your b vitamins. If you arent low, dont supplement. If you are, you need to talk to your doctor about supplementing. Theres plenty of people that can take b12 supplements without any trouble or effect on their acne and vice versa

I agree with the above poster. I tried a bunch of vitamins including a b-complex and zinc and a bunch of other weird herbs and all it did was make me heal slower -- it didn't improve my skin at all. If you don't need b vitamins, taking them can be a nightmare.Even b6 has been found to cause acne in some sensitive people since it can lower estrogen levels. If you're not estrogen dominant (and have estrogen dominant acne), b6 can be a disaster.

Also, it's worth noting that some b12 vitamins have been found to contain traces of cyanide, which taxes your liver and can worsen liver-related acne and just reduce immunity overall.I learned this when I researched why b12 and b6 can be bad for you. I would just try to get those b vitamins for a well balanced diet.

Taking vitamin B12 can cause similar changes in these bacteria, the researchers found. Vitamin B12, which is important for making red blood cells and for brain function, has long been known to cause acne in some people, but researchers didn't understand why.
