This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the MINDBODYSKIN Hormonal Acne Supplement and a prescribed skincare routine of 6 products on facial acne and on symptoms of PMS, compared to a skincare routine of 6 products alone. This study will last for 24 weeks. The study will be conducted as a randomized, controlled trial in which participants will be split into two groups. Both will use the skincare routine, but one group will also take the MINDBODYSKIN supplement in combination with the skincare routine.
