Great for health.. but never found it to have an effect on my acne.
Cons:
Expensive
Doesn't taste great
Very high in Vitamin A and Omega-3 chain fatty acids... which means it's wonderful for your health in moderation.. but I never found it to benefit breakouts.

Pros:
Healthy
Cons:
Cystic Acne
I took fish oil capsules for a few days and it gave me cysts. I haven't had cysts for years, since last time I ate chocolate. Eating actual fish gives me no problems.

Pros:
Reduces amount of breakouts significantly, good for body overall.
Cons:
Annoying to have to take the pills everyday, the cost adds up over time, I plan to get the oil next as it's most cost efficient in the long run compared to the pills, also I'd prefer to take 1 and 1/2 tsps of oil a day compared to 9 pills a day.
Sense I started taking fish oil the amount of inflamed acne I get has decreased dramatically. As opposed to maybe 5-10 active pimples at one time I now have 3-4 at most it's normally about 2. I highly suggest others considering trying this go ahead and do so. Also, I take 3000 mgs a day, which I think is very important, on my pill bottle it says each serving provides 12000 mgs of omega 3 but in reality the nutrition label reads that it's only about 720 mgs per serving (2 pills), hence the reason I take 9 pills per day, 3 with breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc. which is annoying and the reason why I intend to get the oil. Overall though I have no intention to ever stop taking these and I am really amazed at the reduction of acne I've seen sense incorporating them!

Pros:
Many health benefits, acne not being one of them
Cons:
Caused breakeouts when taking large quantities, i.e. 10 pills in a day.
This may work for you but it didn't work for me.

Pros:
No after taste in a one-a-day pill.
Cons:
None.
I have taken Spring Valley brand fish oil caps for about 2 weeks and my skin is greatly improved. I take one pill per day, in the evening after dinner. The Spring Valley brand eliminates toxins and there is no after taste. I really like the results.

Pros:
Good for you
Cons:
None
It didn't do anything for my acne. It didn't help with oily skin either. I took two capsules daily for 2 months without any noticeable difference. Fairly harmless to try though so give it a shot.

Pros:
I take omega 3-6-9 and after the first month my skin cleared up considerably and was smooth and soft.
Cons:
NONE
I would reccommed this to acne sufferers and everybody in general.

Pros:
Doesn't taste like anything, can find it on sale, you feel healthy taking it. Helps the rest of your body, with the omega-3, even if the acne didn't improve.
Cons:
I've taken one fish oil capsule with dinner and have gone through a whole container already, (that's 120 days!) hoping my acne around chin and mouth would disappear, but no such luck.
try it. if you don't eat a lot of fish or nuts, it's important to get the good omega-3 your body needs. For you it may work, you won't know until you try it.

Wonderful for health
