Do Acne Supplements Aid in Healthy Skin?

Acne Supplements

So here’s the big question. Do over the counter pills work in helping clear up acne and pimples? I’ve been asking myself this question for years wondering if I should invest my money on them. I wanted to stop wondering so 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 once I stop, it comes back. 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 acne supplements that can help clear my skin and Murad seemed like the right fit.

Murad Pure Skin Dietary Supplement Tablets claim 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)

My review:

I’ve been using this product a little over three weeks now and I do see a difference in my skin. One major plus- my skin feels less oily. I have only a few of my old breakouts but I think they will go away if I continue to use this product. So far, I don’t see my face getting any worse and it feels cleaner, like my pores can actually breathe. I’ll have to wait four more weeks to get clearer results but so far I like what I’m seeing.  So, yes! Acne supplements do work.

The only downside is the smell. It’s not that great. You also  have to take the acne supplements twice a day everyday. You must maintain this skincare regimen if you want to see results.  Lastly, the size of the pills are pretty large and it feels like something is stuck in my throat when I swallow sometimes. Drinking lots of water usually works.

Rating: 4.1/5.0
