i have acne creams but i still get pimples? please help!?

i got acne treatment cream from the doctor when i first had a huge breakout of pimples (ALL over my face) and within 6 weeks or so (how long it was supposed to take) my skin completely cleared up. but now, about a year and half later i still get breakouts and the odd pimple. i wash my face twice or 3 times a day, use my acne creams at night (if i use them during the day now my skin goes mental and dry and red and ew but at night its fine), so i use witch hazel instead of the acne creams and SOMETIMES if my skin needs it i use a vitamin e moisturizer. i dont use any things on my face that contribute to acne and i drink plenty of water and all of that. but i still get pimples. its not a lot from what it was but i just want to have clearer skin. i asked mom if i could go to the doctor again and she said that my skins fine (but its not really i dont know why she doesnt want to take me). please help me!?!? and my skin is sensitive/ combo btw. and dont say use proactiv that dries my face out
maybe its the chocolate from easter lol, but i dont eat chicken anymore. and i have a healthy diet 98% of the time. what foods can help my skin?
i wash my skin with cetaphil its gentle and non drying as it says on the front lol
i dont have over the counter stuff i have presciption stuff :)

Your probably breaking out from stress or hormones or a combination of both. Over the counter crap never works. It only dries your face up much like Proactive. Drinking water is good. Wash your face only twice a day with a mild cleanser or soap. Cetaphil is pretty good and Walgreens offers a generic that is just as good. Try applying cucumber juice to your face directly from a cucumber. Also, try yoga to relax yourself and breathing when you feel stressed and can not do yoga moves. Other then that there is not much else you can do yourself. You would need to see the doctor again. Sorry.

Throw away all your face soaps and acne creams. Buy a dozen face rags, when you shower or bathe use one face rag only once each time you wash your face with water only and then toss it in the washer. Also change you bedding at least 3 times a week. Never touch your face with your hands. Toss your fabric softener. Never use any face lotion which contain any oil ingredients. And try to establish any food products which may be causing acne flare-ups and remove them from diet. Foods which affect me are chocolate, nuts, ice cream, Italian ice, vitamin c, gluten products, and greasy foods.

none of that stuff really works.

just wash your face, use them occasionally, and just wait.

youre not going to get rid of them, but it will be not as bad until they go away by themselves when you get older.

maybe its the stuff you are eating, stuff with lots of fats are bad for yousuch as chicken and chocolate is a big no no. Eat healthier stuff but dont worry, theyll eventually go away

I use the acne free system that you find in the store. The trick is you use it once a day for the first week and use small amounts to prevent over drying. I also use aveno lotion for sensitive dry cracked skin afterwards. My face is very sensitve to chemicals as well, but that has worked for me. Dont wash your face three times a day, ordinary soaps such as dial or zest will dry your face out worse than proactive
