So here’s the big question. Does over the counter acne pills work or don’t work? I’ve been asking myself this question for years and I have been frightened to waste my money on them. So a couple of weeks ago, I marched into Sephora and bought this product I have been itching to try called Murad Pure Skin Clarifying Supplement Tablets. I’ve tried topical, prescription products in the past like Retin A and differin put I still get a breakout or two once in a while. It can be so frustrating. I said to myself, “you know what, it’s time to try a new approach with your skin.” So I looked into supplements that can help clear my acne and Murad seemed like the right fit.
Murad Pure Skin Clarifying Supplement Tablets claims to reduce breakouts by up to 55% in six weeks and that it will improve the overall health of the skin from the inside out. This product has B-complex and zinc which is known to help heal the skin, prevent clogged pores, and reduce inflammation. (Which attracted me to this product)
So here’s my review:
I’ve been using this product a little over two weeks now and I do see a little difference in my skin. My skin feels less oily. I still have a couple of my old breakouts on my face but I think they will go away if I continue to use this product. But so far I don’t see my face getting any worse and it feels cleaner, like my pores can breathe. I guess I’ll have to see when it’s six weeks.
The only downside I have is first the smell. It’s not that great. Secondly, you have to take this twice a day everyday. You must maintain the skincare regimen if you want to see results. It can be hard sometimes to remember to take a pill twice a day. Lastly, is the size of the pills. It’s pretty large and I hate when I take them because they sometimes get stuck in my throat. I try and drink a lot of water for it to go down. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn’t.
It’s up to you if you want to take over the counter acne supplements and I see no harm in trying them out. I’ll keep everyone posted a month from now about my results.
See you tommorrow!
