Pros:

Works amazingly. My acne is affected by my diet and I can eat anything If i pop a few of these in between and after the meal. TRUELY AMAZING.

Cons:

A bit expensive and kind of a hassle to keep swallowing a bunch of pills

Amazing. Has worked wonders on my skin, but everyone is different so don't have your hopes sky high when purchasing this product

Pros:

Easy to use

Cons:

takes time to get desired results

Clear Complexion B5 is really easy to use. It's great in the morning as you can take it with cereal and tastes like orange juice. You're urine might be noticeably brighter if you're body is unable to absorb all of the vitamins. You might want to try taking smaller sips in the morning and evening. If you are just starting, you simply drink two of the small bottles a day, one in the morning, and the other in the evening. After you achieve the results you want, you can simply drink half the bottle in the morning and the other half in the evening. I wasn't able to get the results I wanted in just a weeks time. If you are just starting out, it makes sense to buy 30 bottle package instead of the 14 package which only lasts a week. I would recommend the product to anyone who has acne and isn't getting their daily value of vitamins in their diet.

Pros:

Noticed that pores were smaller, skin was less oily and less spots. Before B5 i would have five spots at a time and B5 reduced them to 1 at a time.

Cons:

Missed one day and had a break out which i have to say worries me. How long will i have to take it for?? Haven't really noticed many side effects apart from a few extra visits to the toilet.

I started off slowly with just 10g and day then after a week I started 20g a day. I started to see results after 2 weeks but after a month i missed a day and had an outbreak a week after. I'm very scared to stop taking B5 now. I think that you will be taking a risk with this but like with everything there will be one thing that works for you. Maybe this will be it!

Pros:

Really Does work, and it worked pretty fast for me too.

Cons:

Ive only been taking it for like 5 days and im sh*tting out water every day. Not to mention my stomach aches and feels like I have stomach flu or somethingn

A good alternative to topical prescriptions during the winter time. Or if you have really bad side effects to topical prescriptions.

Pros:

Easy to use, Tastes great.

Cons:

none yet

I recently posted a comment under "Acnezine" stating that i had just started to use it and that i would comment back after i had used it for a couple of months. Well it has been almost 3 months that i have been using it and it does NOT work!! what a waist of money. I stopped using it last night as my "SkinB5" arrived in the mail last night. I have heard so much positive feedback in regarsd to B5 that i thought that i would give it a try. Last night i started to use SkinB5 and so far things are looking positive. I will continue to use it and then each week report back to let you all know how its going.

Pros:

Didn't take long for me to see the results. Skin felt less oily, and great reduction in pimples.

Cons:

A little pricey, but still worth it to me!

Bottom line is I had tried other products, and I find that this works the best. I don't mind taking the pills everyday and have had no side effects for the medication at all. I feel more confident and will continue taking them. Just wondering how many pills I will end up taking (this is my third month, so I will have a little trial and error next month).

Pros:

Skin is I'd say about 75% clearer than it was when I started. It hasn't cleared me up completely but my skin is about 100% less oily and the whiteheads are maybe one or two daily. I'm going to try to take the maintenance dosage and use the regimen.

Cons:

None, really. I've noticed zero side effects.

I would reccomend this to anyone with oily skin as it did work very well on that area. Also I would say at least a 50% reduction in whiteheads. I think it would be best suited as a supplement to a regimen. I'm gonna try Dk's regimen with it.

Pros:

- Skin less oily
- Breakouts much less

Cons:

- Waiting 8 for my package to arrive. Package comes from Australia.

Overall very happy! After doing some reading on Vitamin B5 I decided to give SkinB5 a try. SkinB5 requires 3 dosages a day and within 3-4 weeks I started noticing good results. Well worth a try as I've tried every product out there and this has been the best so far.

Pros:

Amazingly my back acne disappeared after just one week taking 2 B5's at night. My skin was okay...I think I needed to take the pill longer to get any results.

Cons:

HAIR LOSS!??!? That is a side effect of this vitamin. I don't care If my whole face is one big pimple, I'm not going to prematurely lose my hair over it. I don't know if I was overly paranoid but I think I did notice some evidence of hair loss.

B5 may work for you but be wary of its side effects. I personally became too paranoid and discontinued the use of B5. I hear Red Clover is good as it helps to control bacteria and raging hormones.

Pros:

less oil and breakouts

Cons:

popping lots of pills and trips to the bathroom

i have been taking b5 with a multivitamin for about a month now and i have noticed a continual improvement in my skin. my breakouts have not only gotten smaller in size but fewer in number as well(A LOT FEWER!). my skin is also less oily. i take 5g morning noon and night. will definitely continue taking b5 and will hopefully continue seeing improvement.
