Was great at first...
Was great the first few months of taking it. My skin has never been softer and acne went away for the first few months. But came back with a venegence. Also I want to mention at the same time I started this I quit dairy. So that may have been it not the fish oil. Im still dairy free today.

Works for tone and texture but beware of cystic pimples!
I have mixed feelings towards Omega 3 (fish oil) supplements. On one hand, they do wonders for the overall texture of my skin and evening out my skin tone where there is no acne. However, after 2 separate attempts with 2 different brands of expensive Omega 3 supplements (both each around £20 for a months supply) I broke out with cystic pimples on my chin BOTH TIMES - I didn't change anything else in my diet apart from the Omegas so I know it's this. Luckily, the second time around I worked the correlation out straight away and stopped taking the supplements the day my first cyst popped back up; so hoping they won't hang around for too long! The first time I hadn't worked out the correlation so I continued taking and my cysts persisted for a couple of months. Overall, if your skin doesn't break out with the Omega's I would definitely recommend for overall tone and texture but be super careful with these!

Doesn't break me out
I take this stuff for preventative heart health ( I'm genetically predisposed to heart disease) and it doesn't break me out. I take a few supplements though so I'm not sure whether or not it helps clear my skin.

Pros:

Read alot lately on the correlation betw. clearing acne and taking omega 3. I think it works, along with the acne.org regimen. Omega 3's are anti-inflammatory, so it only makes sense that reducing inflamed boils, pimples etc. would be a benefit.

Cons:

None so far after 3 weeks.

Also great for heart health as well as skin.

Pros:

Makes you heart healthy!
It is good for your health so i am told...

Cons:

I mean, this is not an acne product to me.. I take my multi vitamins A to Z plus this.. And still havn't seen no change in my acne..

I take this for my internal health, not my acne. I recomend this for the sake of your health but not for your acne.

Pros:

-Cheap
-Simple
-No side effects

Cons:

-None, really

OK, so honestly, I have been having fish oil for a few months. There isn't any noticeable difference that I can recognize. Apparently, it's suppose to reduce inflammation, among other things. If it did have any effect, it was minimal. However, I still recommend taking fish oil for it's health benefits to the heart and however minute, the skin.

Pros:

Redness has gone away & break outs are not as severe. Skin feels softer & is not as oily.

Cons:

Large pills & slight indigestion.

I have been struggling with acne for about eleven years now. I have tried just about everything except accutane. I currently use Proactiv, a good moisturizer, & consume eight fish oil pills a day, one pro biotic, and one vitamin B complex. Most of my acne is around my chin. Any advice would be awesome. Maybe change the brand of fish oil or up the dosage?
