Pros:

-May have prevented more acne. I've been getting literally none in the past week(s) or so.
-Inexpensive

Cons:

-Didn't reduce oily skin.

I wanted to take zinc b/c i found it helps control hormones, reduce oily skin, etc. It didn't do much for my oily skin. i am currently taking 60 mg, you really shouldnt exceed 100mg.

Pros:

Inexpensive.

Cons:

Didn't do anything.

Took 2x50mg daily for 2 months, noticed no difference. I doubt I was deficient to begin with but I thought I would give it a go anyway. Only made me feel nauseous if I left the pill on my tounge for a little while before swallowing and this feeling would only last a few seconds anyway.

Pros:

I take one 50mg caplet right before bed because it makes me feel sick. When I wake up my face is not red anymore, I'm loving that. It's
helped.

Cons:

Just that it makes me feel sick

I wish I knew about this before.

Pros:

My skin does not hurt anymore! I RARELY have a new breakout in the morning when I am consistant!

Cons:

If I dont take it with food, It can make me feel sick/dizzy, and I might get a couple new zits.

I take two 50mg of zinc every day, one early in the day one in the evening! I take them along with flaxseed oil pills! My skin is so much better, I am now treating my scaring with Mederma!

Pros:

I read the reviews and decided to try it. I have been using it for about a week, along with other prescribed medications. I have noticed a reduction in inflammation, which is a HUGE issue for me.

Cons:

I take with food, so I have had no cons

I use this along with my prescriptions. I have been on my prescriptions for quite a while, and in the last day or two, I have noticed a decrease in redness and inflammation. I do not think this would work by itself, but I do think it helps.

Pros:

My skin was touchable. Yeah, still bumps here and there but I like it. I take it as a multivitamin (Centrum)

Cons:

Upset stomach. Need a good meal with it.

It works well to clear up. I'm hoping for more results soon!

Pros:

Margarite Skin Zinc ($10) combined w/Zinc tablets ($8)>This stuff WORKS!!...if you stick it out through the irritation phase. Clearer skin in about 3 weeks. Younger looking, softer, even toned skin. Be prepared for compliments! Well worth the pric

Cons:

Zinc tablets w/make you sick, taken on empty stomach. Take w/meal>not just a bite).Margarite Zinc Cream was very irritating and tacky/hard to apply to my already extremely sensitive skin. Made it worse; rashes, dry flacky skin.
Persevering=Pro

Age: 40's. Condition:acne,seborrheic dermatitis or eczema or rosacea(diagnoised or misdiagnoised)and treated, unsuccessfully. If I treat one condition, I aggravate the other. Treatments: OTC and perscription. The ONLY treatment to have EVER worked is Prednisone,a synthetic corticosteroid drug, which was prescibed for my severe allergic reations (cause unknowned). VERY POWERFUL w/major side effects and you cannot stay on it.This is NOT my recommendation, however,it left my skin clear, smooth & toned. After the drug leaves your system, you're back to zits! Based on many reviews, I decided to try 50mg of Chelated Zinc (Nature's Plus) and Margarite Zinc Cream. WOW, the cream super aggravated my skin and made it worse, so I dropped down to every other day,continued the tablets everyday. The best way to describe it, is a "burning off" of the top layers to expose a smooth, even toned skin. Now everyday. Use lots of moisturizer to combat excessive dryness. I look 10yrs. younger! $18 for both.
