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:
Reduces acne
Makes skin and hair smoother

None
I'm 14 but got acne at 11. This helped clear my skin up and keep it glowing! I also use Vichy-products.

Pros:
Easy to take
Many have been the root of my decline in acne
good hair! reverses greying supposedly
Cons:
nothing!
I am taking vitamins and minerals that include fish oil. I have been taking this for a week, and my acne is under control. I have not said that ever. It is awesome. Any skeptics out there, why not try it? It is good for your health and balances out omega 6, bringing the ratio down, and upping the anti inflammatory factor. two words; Do it

Pros:
Cleared 99% of acne, reduces any red marks, no more oily skin!
Cons:
Fishy burps but i can get over that
This is what has been missing for me and the answer to my acne equation. There is a bunch of "scientific" crap around nowadays and i have tried a few things but the best things for acne are to keep the body detoxed and take FISH OIL!!! Dont put harsh chemicals on or in your body. Fish oil cleared what i would call my hormonal acne. Give it a try for a month and see what happens if you dont believe me.

Pros:
Definitely reduces inflammation, relatively cheap and side-effect free compared to similarly effective treatments.
Cons:
Can cause a little indigestion.
I have used this for a couple of weeks now and have noticed a definite reduction in the inflammation of my acne and new breakouts. No miracle cure as of yet, but definite improvement! I take about 1g of omega-3 which, compared to many people on this board, is not a lot! I will definitely up the omega-3 to at least 3g as recommended and report on any increase in benefits!

Pros:
Cleared my existing acne within the first week. Made my skin less oily and much softer. Good for memory and concentration. Overall a good supplement to take.
Cons:
Fish burps, but what's that compared to the agony of acne.
I have tried a lot of different things, and this is the only thing that has lasting results (if taken daily). I was taking fish oil religiously for a while and saw amazing results. I wasn't sure if it was the fish oil, my face wash, or my multi-vitamin, so I stopped taking the fish oil for a week just as a test and things got bad fast. I started taking the fish oil again and within a week I was almost 100% clear again. I suggest taking 2,000mg in the morning and another 2,000mg at night along with a gentle face wash and a muli-vitamin supplement.

Pros:
Cleared up my skin faster than anything else I've ever tried and its good for your whole body. And its cheap!
Cons:
Its kind of a big pill to swallow, but it is a gel cap and shaped to go down smoothly. (which it does)
I'm a 24 soon to be 25 year old female and I've been struggling with severe ance for 10-15 years. I have been on everything! Any cream you can think of, antibiotics, birth control, everything except accutane and nothing has helped clear up my acne completely and worked as quickly as fish oil. I only take one a day (1000mg) and I've been taking it for about a week. I've only had one new pimple, which was very small, and my acne that was there faded more and more everyday. I still wash my face every morning and night and apply a benzoil peroxide and I could not be happier! I would recommend this to everyone. Its also cheap, I bought a bottle of 100 for $5-$6.

Pros:
So easy to take, doesn't upset my stomach even without eating... so easy that I often take six pills a day. My skin improved... fast.
Cons:
Sometimes I burp with a fishy aftertaste.
I saw an improvement in less than a week... I have been taking them religiously with one zinc pill per day and following the regimen... under two weeks and I have no acne... have even felt comfortable not wearing make-up in front of family at least, just have to get rid of spots leftover from acne. But even with marks my skin has a healthy look to it... You really have nothing to lose, they're cheap and good for you...

Pros:
Clears up acne
Makes my skin soft and glowy
Cons:
None that makes it not worth taking
Slight fishy taste if you buy cheep pills, but taking them with food will help with that
I definitly recommend them! It took about a week for them to start working, I've been takin them for about three weeks now and my face is completly clear. I still have to use acne cleansers and spot treatment, but if I don't skip any pills and continue taking good care of my skin. It's almost perfect! (: I use Spring Valley regular strength btw, and I take four a day.

Pros:
Soft hair
Soft/glowing skin
Less acne
Feel healthier
Cons:
They are large to swallow
Have to remember to take them everyday
Cost $
Make sure you buy tablets with a higher dosage, otherwise you will have to take 6+ to see results. I have taken two a day for the past six weeks and my hair is amazingly smooth and shiny. My skin has cleared A LOT (although not perfect). I used to suffer from severe cystic acne and this has worked well for me in combination of other vitamins (magnesium and a multi) and drinking a tonne of water!
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
