Hmmm very interesting with the cod liver oil! I've actually heard some good things about it but didn't know it could apply to cystic acne as well! I'm always scared about ingesting something to cure cystic acne! But I will definitely print off the ingredients of that cod liver oil and ask my doctor the next time I see him! Just to clarify, you bought the "BLUE ICE Royal™ Butter Oil/Fermented Cod Liver Oil Blend"? Do you ever get cystic acne anymore? And have you noticed any side effects from taking cod liver oil? (My friend has mentioned that his skin gets a tad "dewy/oily" from taking it lol) Thanks so much!
