Pros:

Easy to take, clearer skin within two weeks time, no new breakouts, more energy, has a lot of other positive health effects

Cons:

Won't help very much if you have a greasy or unhealthy diet, also won't help if you only use that as your way to handle acne. Doesn't work for everyone.

A relative told me about fish oil and how their acne cleared up after using it. I though hey, I'd give it a try. Two weeks into it, I really started noticing my new lack of pimple formation. Granted I still had a few scars from previous zits, I was still very happy about the effects that it gave me. Also, It's good for the heart and a few other things. For the people that it didn't work for, it may be that they are only using fish oil as a treatment for acne (which unfortunately doesn't work) or they have bad luck or bad skin. I'm sorry. It worked for me though! :)

Pros:

good for your general wellbeing

Cons:

does not help at all with acne

this does not work. it has had no effect on my acne whatsoever. i tried it after reading reviews on it here, but unfortunately it has not done any good for me. i noticed that many people are claiming to see great results after just few days of taking it, but i think it is just a coincidence that new pimples haven't formed during that time. i guess what i'm saying is that you can try it for yourself, but you also shouldnt get your hopes up too much, because this is not a miracle cure. good luck, i hope it works for you.

Pros:

Clear mind, clear complexion, calming effect

Cons:

Have to remember to take it

I have tried a few fish oil where I got those fish burps (nasty). The cheap stuff tends to lend itself to that. I have bought Costco fish pills and I think the most honest breakdown review of the best fish pills was at: [link removed] They have agood xtend life reviews versus some other popular products. Don't go to the absolute cheapest. You will be sorry and in the long run, you'll be happier with a good quality fish oil.

Pros:

it makes my skin very supple and smooth...i don't have to use moisturizer and my skin is very soft but it doesn't seem to do anything with the acne

Cons:

its difficult to remember to take 3 tablets each day before a meal

i will continue to use it because my skin is extremely soft and has no bumps!

Pros:

It's great helps with acne and helps prevent breakouts. Another thing for people taking this. Freeze the pills and you won't burp up the oil and take them right before a meal. NO MORE BURPS!!!!

Cons:

none except that they are big pills to swallow.

They help me so much with acne and even if it doesn't help you they are so good for you it's cheap and nutural. All these chemical remedies caused me major irritation but what i find helps best is the naturall remedies and this is natural. to try what do u have to lose?

Pros:

Fish oil has been the ONLY thing that has helped me. for years I tried every cream, acne program, medication, and vitamins and NOTHING helped me. I noticed immediate improvement, my face is soft, not greasy, no more redness, and NO BREAKOUTS!

Cons:

A little fish oil burps, but I can deal with that!

TRY IT!! It WORKS!

Hi everyone, I heard about fish oil's benefits for acne in The Toronto Star and got very interested in looking online for more information. I was very surprised to see how much information is available! So I bought Carlson's Super Omega 3 Fish Oil from my local health store and today was my first day. I asked the sales woman, she said to start by taking 1 a day of 1000 mg. I took one today and hope that it makes a difference to my skin! I'd love to hear other people's experiences with this product!

FYI Costco has a great fish oil deal. It is the Natures made brand. Very affordable!!! I paid around $14-16 for a 6 -12 month supply (depending on how much you take)
