Since I have been taking Omega 3 I have stopped getting acne breakouts I take it 2x a day one in the morning and one before going to bed.

Pros:
OMG EVERYTHING
Cons:
Nothing?
I have used just about every acne med on the market. Nothing ever worked until I went to a dermatolgist and she recomended Artic Oils Omega Pure 820, Solodyn, and Ziana gel. I started the fish oil first and it seems to be working the best. After I started using the fish oil, I haven't broken out since!! :D

Pros:
Makes your skin look very healthy. It reduces oil, but not so much that your skin dries up. Makes oil on skin feel more creamy than oily, very soft to the touch. Significantly fewer bigger zits
Cons:
Does little for blackheads, takes about a week for it to fully work.
I take between 6-8 of Carlson brand 1000mg pills a day depending on how much I eat. They can make you burp, just stick them in the freezer and you'll be fine. These in addition to Zinc daily has done more good for my complexion than any antibiotics ever did. I don't even use any benzoyl peroxide or acne face wash anymore, just plain soap. Also good overall for your body, I definately notice an increase in brain function.

Pros:
very cheap (i take 4 pills a day and it costs about $20/month); works well.
Cons:
depending on the brand i buy, i sometimes get fish oil burps, but you can buy ones that totally eliminate them.
we were originally forced to take fish oil pills for our division one rowing team, as fish oil is a natural anti-inflammatory. i didn't know that it was good for your skin, but since then, my face has cleared up a lot. its not completely perfect, but i have only been taking the pills for about a month, so maybe i will see more results later.

may be doing you harm
I have been taking fish oil for a number of years to combat seborrheic dermatitis and joint pain from years of playing sport. It has really helped with pain in my knee but reading all these negative reviews got me thinking about it's impact on acne. I stopped taking my daily fish oil only 9 days ago and my skin is 90% clearer! I have had a terrible summer with cystic acne and until reading some of these reviews I would never have put two and two together. If you have been supplementing with fish oil long term I suggest you ditch it for a week or two and see what happens.

Helps Inflammation but is not a cure
Been taking fish oil for about a year now . Has definitely helped my acne appear less red but haven't seemed much of a decrease in acne. Still definitely worth taking as Omegas are very good for you

Pros:
Natural product
Cons:
Expensive depending on the brand
Fishy taste
Fish oil is one of the many vitamins that i take that do not do much for my skin. This supplement actually breaks me skin out instead of helping clear it. I have noticed that whenever i take it i break out really bad along the jawline area. When i break out it is very deep and painful pimples that don't seem to go away regardless of how many acne products i use on it. I have heard that this vitamin does wonders for other people tho and i encourage everyone to at least try it if you want to find an acne supplement that is natural and healthy for you.

Pros:
Reduces acne
Makes skin and hair smoother
Healthy!!
Cons:
None
I'm 14 but got acne at 11. This helped clear my skin up and keep it glowing! I also use Vichy-products.
November 14, 2011
Pros:
research says that it is good for regulating mood
Cons:
caused my acne to be extremely red and caused large cysts
it caused cystic acne within a week of taking this. I took this a few years ago along with a multivitamin and it took me a few months to realize what was happening. I really regret having tried this. In the research journals I'm sure they would have encountered the fact that It causes cysts in a significant portion of the population, they should have reported this.
Pros:
Started taking fish oil 1200 mg 3 a day with i 50 mg zink two weeks ago- after about 3 days great response- less oily skin and no more daily new pimple in the morning. Have struggled with acne for 20 yrs and this is a great cure!!
