When I first began the raw diet, I started to get breakouts.  I traced it to the detox going on and was instructed to take zinc and alpha lipoic acid, as they have a great effect on clearing the skin.  It certainly cleared me up taking it twice a day.  I also concur that turmeric is a great supplement for any kind of inflammation.  In addition, I would also recommend using Dove bar soap.  It was recommended to me by a doctor specializing in acne.  It seemed  counterintuitive at the time, as my complexion was quite oily.  It turned out to be just what my skin needed.  Since then, it's all my family uses and it has helped my teenagers avoid the breakouts that made my youth miserable.  Nowadays there is a Dove for sensitive skin.  Try it.  (No, I have no connection, financial or otherwise, to the makers of that soap.). Years ago in high school, a guy I was dating told me I ought to try it.  He had a great skin and does to this day.  I resisted and lived to regret not taking his sage advice.
