Are any of thes items useless or a waste of money for having good skin?
I'm a 14 year old girl and I want to have really nice skin, so I did some research and came up with this skin regimen:
-cleanse daily, once when I wake up and once before bed

Yesterday, at the store, when I picked up all these items my mom convinced my not to buy them because they were "a waste of money". Do you think any of these things are a waste of money? I was gonna buy it with my own money even! What do you think and how can I buy what I want without my mom interferring? Thanks for answering :)
How to get great clear healthy skin?
For the past month I have been struggling with acne. I have blackheads and pimples throughout my body. There are so many products I have tried that have failed to keep their promise. I am currently using a Burt's bees face wash. I have used neautrogena zap zyt Clearasil those types of products. Does biore products work for stubborn acne. Just curious.
How do I get rid of blackheads NATURALLY?
I'm 14 and use every single thing Burts Bees (acne, scrub, shampoo, conditioner, hair treatment, blemish stick, cuticle cream, hand and feet cream, body lotion, body bar, body wash, ETC.)
and my mom says I can't use anything exept that because that's natural and they sell it at Whole Foods or something like that and I really like it so please don't recomend a product. I just want to know a formula that I can make at home that will get rid of black heads
I live on the shore of Newport beach and my mom says that's why I get it because of all the humidity and hormones (or some kind of doctorish stuff), and I don't think it's because of that!
Thanks

Acne: Help me Please!?
PLEASE READ ON!
I know this is really long, sorrry, but I really need help on this.
I am 14. I have pretty moderate acne on my forehead, and my chin. I also have blackheads on my nose. I have a few small dry patches that show if I use makeup, but mainly, my skin is pretty oily.
I have tried a lot of individual products and "systems;" AcneFree, Neutrogena, Clean and Clear, Kiss My Face, Burts Bees, Nature's Gate, Murad, neaclear, Alba, and probably more that I can't remember right now.
I have found out many things in my experience of using these many products.
1. Benzoyl Peroxide does not work for my skin.
2. Salicylic Acid helps with the redness, but does not get rid of the actual pimples.
This obviously poses a problem, because these are the two main ingredients in just about every acne treatment. That is why I am thinking of starting a whole new regimen.
I want to have a cleanser, a toner, and a moisturizer. A spot/night treatment would be great too. I don't want a system or anything like that, because I want to be able to tailor all of the ingredients myself.
I found out about some ingredients that are very beneficial for the skin, and was wondering if there are any more that I have forgotten, or any more that would be even better. Please correct me if I am wrong.
1. Tea Tree Oil- could be used as a spot/night treatment
2. Sulfur- could be used in a cleanser or moisturizer
3. Witch Hazel, Rosewater- could be used in a toner
I heard about this thing called the Oil Cleansing Method...it's where you use oil to dissolve oil. My parents (who are scientists) think this actually does make sense. I have tried the method before, but gave up after not long because I wasn't seeing fast improvements and it was hard to maintain.
So I was thinking of getting an cleanser with essential oils in it that I could use to "dissolve" the oil on my skin. If I get a cleanser like this, should I use a foamy one afterwards to get rid of excess oil?
Also, I need a moisturizer. My skin is very oily, so pretty much all moisturizers highlight that and my skin becomes very shiny by the end of the day. I was thinking that If I use an actual oil as a moistuizer, it would help balance my skin's natural oils and stop excess oil making.
What would be the best oil to use? I heard that jojoba oil is like the skin's oil, but very heavy...I need something that will moisturize but won't make me shiny. I'm talking something that I can rub into my skin- no rinsing afterwards.
So would this be an okay regimen?:
1. Cleanser, with:
-Sulfur
-Tea Tree Oil
2. Toner, with:
-Witch Hazel
-Rose/Orange Water
-Tea Tree Oil
3. Moisturizer, with:
-Sulfur
-Jojoba Oil, some other good oil?
4. Spot/night Treatment, with:
-Tea Tree Oil
-Aloe
-Any other intensive beneficial ingredients?
(I need to be able to use this without my skin getting used to it and the effects wearing off!)
Please give me more suggestions for good ingredients to look for.
Also, if you have products that you know have the ingredients I want, please suggest them!
NO suggestions to Proactiv kind of stuff. I've tried those things already.
