Is anyone taking this for acne? If so, what are your thoughts?

I have not taken Vit. D for acne specifically, but Vit. D is good for inflammation and for respiratory issues. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the lung meridian is associated with the skin. So, I would think that Vitamin D probably would help to clear acne. I would be interested to hear if anyone has personal experience.

I just simply used the product alone and it has worked wonders for my skin. I rarely break out anymore and if I do experience a breakout the product diminishes it within days. My skin feels soft. It's great.

I'm using it daily. It's been a few weeks now. I see some improvement, but I do feel it's too soon to give a more thorough answer. Feel free to check back. My skin is looking a lot better overall!

I've been using it for years without any adverse affects. It probably wouldn't be such a highly rated product if break-outs were a common experience. Each of us may be sensitive to very different things. There's no way to know how it will affect your skin without trying it - unless you can target specific ingredients.

Yes! My friend and I have different skin types and both of us have had less acne because this stuff controls acne really well.

I haven't used the treatment since the dinosaur age but continued using the lotion because it was fast acting, only a minimal amount was needed to "stop a zit in its tracks", and not super drying. I found that my acne cleared up when I started to add an additional amount of zinc to my diet in pill form and stopped drinking soda (this is a big one, no derm agrees with me except the one who told me that even though there is no proof that sodas cause acne, they do keep good minerals and trace elements from being used by the largest organ we have -- our skin) and sweets. I am 66 now so if you are considerably younger you may want to ignore everything I have just said. Good Luck!

I believe I've read reviews for those who have used it for acne and it worked. I'm not positive tho. I do know I love the product for surgical scars and would HIGHLY recommend the scaraway products.

I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes. I barely noticed results when using this as a Mask 1x/wk basis, and even 2x/wk. This week, I used this as a nightly "Rinse", and now my face is almost blemish-free. I already use a konjac sponge to exfoliate my skin, then apply the clay (mixed with a few add-ins). I keep the clay on no more than five minutes, rinse, then moisturize. I did this for seven nights in a row, and WOW. What I looked like the Monday before I started this is pretty damn yucky compared to what I look like by the next Monday morning. I wish I had thought to try this sooner.

I would check with a dermatologist as I do not specialize in medicine but I have heard Proactive is an excellent product to gain control of Acne prone issues and perhaps then once under control and if your skin is not oily this product is so great for keeping skin smooth and not dry but check with a medical professional regarding acne issues!

It's a good product. I use it on my face and keeps my skin soft. Helps with acne. Overall I give it a A grade.I will keep buying this product.

I have kept using it since I started about a year ago. If I stop using it the acne definitely starts to come back. I will use it after i get out of the shower, I spray it on and do not wash it off afterwards. This product is very effective but it does dry at your skin out. I'm not sure about your specific skin conditions, give it a try and try to slowly ween yourself off of it, I tried this and noticed the acne coming back so I still use it every day. Expensive, but it's the price to pay for clear skin. Feel free to let me know if you have anymore questions!

I have used it around my eyes for the past 2 months and it does seem to help with my wrinkles. I don't have problems with acne or blackheads though.....it has not caused any breakouts but once again i only use around my eyes.

YES! I have been using it for at least 10 yrs and I'm 51. I just revealed my age to my neighbors who told me they thought I was only 42! I have very fair skin and rosacea, plus had cystic acne from teenager to into my late 20s. My skin has always been problematic; however, this is one of the BEST things I have ever put on my skin and even though the price has gotten ridiculous, I still find a way to buy at least 2 vials every year. I use very little of it and I make it last! I will use this until I die!

I am acne prone and have been faithfully using this product for over a year without breakouts! So for me, at least, it has not been an issue!

I have acne prone skin and it's super sensitive, I've been using this oil every day (twice a day) for moisturizing and I like a lot, not break outs so far :)

Yes, it is! I've been taking it for about two months, and I can definitely see improvement in my face!

Probably not. It cleans well but I doubt it would help acne. Just my opinion.
