Vitamins I’ve tried that are supposed to help acne but do the opposite for me:
Magnesium – I suspect it breaks me out but may try again as it’s hard to tell when it’s bad all the time!
Vitamin B6 – meant to be good for skin but breaks me out L
Evening Primrose Oil – again meant to be good for skin, but not mine! Would wake up with fresh spots and oiliness
Omega 3 Fish Oil – made skin more oily, didn’t help
I agree about the EPO. I heard it was recommended for acne, but it made my skin a lot worse. It seems that giving yourself more Omega 6 isn't helpful.
I didn't notice Omega 3 making my acne worse though. As you mentioned above it's sometimes hard to tell, but I took Omega 3 for a long time so I think I would have noticed any adverse effect.
