I've been taking biotin for months and never noticed a change in my skin when I started taking it. You could be very sensitive or it could be hormonal changes.

If you're breaking out it means your not drinking enough water with the dosage you are taking.

This is for the 284736259 threads I see asking if 'Biotin is worth the money?' or 'What does biotin do?'.

For starters biotin (also known as vitamin H) is a b vitamin the our bodies produce. It aids in the metabolism of carbs, fats, and proteins, which is why people with a biotin deficiency will often take biotin supplements.
So, to all of you who are asking why you are gaining weight, or getting acne breakouts from taking biotin it's because your body ALREADY produces it, and if you don't have a deficiency you are pumping excess amounts of biotin into your body, which is throwing your system off whack.
Ask your doctor before taking any kind of supplement people.
