Don't use soap. Use a small amount of soap-free cleanser, and rinse with lots of water. Soap is very drying to your skin. Use a non-scented moisturizer. If your skin is dry, it will produce more oil, and the oil is more likely to become trapped in your pores. Avoid make-up except for special occasions. There may be times when you want to look your best, but wearing make-up every day is just more stuff for your skin to deal with. Apparently there is now such a thing as non-acnegenic makeup. Granular facial scrub can make acne worse by aggravating the skin.
