Does Biotin make you break out?

[sweettckae]

Okay, so I purchased Biotin a month ago and I have to take it three times a day with food and I thought it would help my skin as well as my nails and hair. it improved my hair, it's much more lighter and shiny and gotten longer but my face started breaking out like a teenager... does anyone know if Biotin is the reason why my skin is breaking out?

anyone take biotin?

Oh my gosh, the same thing happened to me! I started taking Biotin three months ago and my skin was blemish-free but guess what? That shit made me break out like there was no tomorrow. I made a few researches online and I discovered that taking too much Biotin can be bad for the skin if not associated with Vitamin B5, something about equilibrium. Look it up if you want to. Anyway, I stopped taking it, and I suggest to lower it to once a day.

Why three times a day? I only take it once a day. Never had a reaction.

I take the natures bounty one that has 5000mcg. and it says to take it 3 times daily.

I've taken it a couple of times but I never broke out from it.

Yes! You have to drink enough water after to flush it tbh

Biotin should not be the reason you are breaking out. It is an essential vitamin and water soluble. Biotin is also in your food you know, like peanut butter and eggs. So you could be possibly consuming more in vitamins than you need to for the day.

I take Biotin (paranoid about hair loss). I don't see how it would make you break out.

If you don't drink a lot of water yes
