Pros:

happier, more excited, and my skin feels so soft

Cons:

none

well i started taking fish oil like a week ago thinking that it would help my hair grow faster and it did help my hair and my skin, i dont have bad acne, i would just say that they are zits and pimples, i have them on my forhead, chin, and on the side of my lips, now ive tried proactive and avon products but they just made my face adicted to them and when i tried to stop using them myface would tighten up andhurtbadly, so right now i was my face with cetaphil in the shower at night and in the morning and take two softgels in the morning with my breakfast and two softgels at night with my dinner. i use the Nature Made brand cause thats what my mother bought me and she also takes fish oil. well i really hope that if your reading this and have a problem with acne that you at least try taking fish oil, i mean it cant hurt you!!!!!!!! :)

Pros:

Easy to use, works well

Cons:

Can be pricey, fish oil burps

Ive been on a regemin of fish oil pills (6-8 grams/day) and apple cider vinegar for about 2 weeks now and im truly convinced that there is a conspiracy involving dermatologists and the drug companies to keep these products a secret! Its been over 10 years of trying every cream, gel, and pill that the doctor ordered and fish oil is the only thing that has worked. Never once did a dermatologist tell me to take fish oil or use apple cider vinegar. Im looking forward to seeing more results in the coming weeks.

Pros:

Less oily skin, improvement in skin tone, decreased propensity to break out, healthier hair.

Cons:

None

It improved the overall tone of my skin and dramatically lessened the severity of breakouts. I went on 2 courses of accutane, and it worked very well, but only after I stopped the treatement and started taking fish oil did my skin achieve perfection(almost).

Caused nodular/cystic acne for me

Pros:

improved hair strength

Cons:

Not for me, but may work for others
recurrent nodular/cystic acne

This was great for the overall look of my skin, the brightness and firmness, and for my hair. However, not long after taking it I started to get very red nodular/cystic acne on my cheeks and jawline, something I'd never had before. Not sure if it was the brand I was using or the amount I was taking (probably far too much, knocking the Omega 3-6-9 balance off). Since I've stopped (about 2 weeks), I've noticed the spots have gone down or away completely.

Pros:

-keeps acne away to a degree if you use it daily(i take 3 tablets a day 1000mg)
-smooths skin
-not as many pimples

Cons:

-need to use it for a while to work as it doesnt work over night
-doesnt clear it up 100% (but then what does haha)

i am 16 and have had acne since i was 14. i have tried over the counter stuff heaps and none of it seems to work. but my aunty recommended i try fish oil tablets and since then i have seen an improvement in the healthiness of my skin. although it may not treat severe acne over night and doesnt work on all pimples i have seen a difference.i do recommend you try it plus it makes your mood better as well which is a bonus :D

Pros:

-Skin appears to be more healthy
-Less acne breakouts
-cardiovascular health improved
-improved self esteem

Cons:

-can be difficult to swallow
-smells bad

I was looking through the reviews on fish oil on this site and I gave the product a try. I bought a big jar of fish oil which contains 350 softgels for about 10 bucks at Sam's club. My skin has gotten soft and smooth. My skin color also appears to be healthy. I jog fairly often, but now I am able to jog longer than before since taking the product. More importantly, my acne seems to have lessen. I still get a few break outs, but they aren't as bad as before. I get pimples like nodule which usually appears in different sections of my face. They have shrunken considerably. I recommend trying this product!!!

Pros:

sometimes from cheep ones or too big quantity at once i had aftertaste

Cons:

miracle that helped me with mood and then helped me with skin - as i was not stressed any more

this was the first product after BT from here that i called my miracle. i try them first in big dossage 1000 mg in the morning and the same and the 1000 mg in the evening. they give energy in a second. apetite increased, a lot, but i tryied to drink more reg water so it decreased it, in 2 days i have alredy seen difference. in a month from moderete ma acne and bacne, especially bacne, were light. u can understand me - this was my happiness!!! And they still are, now i take 500 mg daily, but i eat more healthy and try to take omega 3 by eating a lot uncooked oils - like olive, and fish. try fish oil - good brands or bad, they did not made significiant difference - but dosage did. thank u fishies and thanks everybody who is rating products so smb else can see it!

Pros:

Probably good for you

Cons:

Broke me out in cystic acne(NOT NORMAL)

After a few days of taking fish oil I broke out on my chin in FOUR cystic acne bumps! I mean really FOUR. Right next to each other. It was painful, ugly, and I am still recovering. I'm sure this works for some people, but not me.

Pros:

made hair shine
actually curbed my eating
helped with loosing weight

Cons:

ACNE, ACNE, ACNE
and gave a rash effect on arm had to use vitamin e to get rid of it.

Because of the bad acne after 28 days of use as of today march 17,2011 i am deciding to stop today. If you have dry skin and acid don't bother you than this will be great for you .but if you have oily skin and acid affects you for example, soda or orange juice. Than this is not for u!
