Why do I still have acne?

I have had acne for 2 years(12-13)!! I'm realy sick and tired of it!! I usually don't go anywhere w/o a lot of make-up(Detailed Description-First, I add a green powder, then a few layers of cover up, then one layer of oil-free foundation). I am embarrassed and have low self esteem, plus sometimes cry(believe it or not) cause I feel so god damn ugly!! My family and friends say I'm beautiful, but I'd feel a whole lot beautiful with out acne! My case is not severe, I have about a few flat red scars(known as acne freckles) on my forehead, about 5 active pimples on my forehead, a few flat acne scars on the sides of my head, and about a few on my chin and "mustache" area. I don't feel good @ all. I COMPLETELY cut sugar, salty, and high fat foods out of my diet. I take about 15 vitamins, all reflecting the help of making acne better, and the only things I'LL really eat are salmon, anything with high-fiber, avocado, any thing high in omega-3 fatty acids, and a bunch of nutrients rich in vitamins a &d. And I also put these things on my face-I use murad and I have a very expensive oil of oregano cream. Both are literally the highest quality acne ingredients on the rack!! I also use a special nutrogena gentle face wash in the shower. I have no stress, I know its not puberty, I think I pretty much passed that. Also, MY SKIN is never ever oily!! Before I feel it(my face) (to check if its oily) I carry a hand sanitizer and use that before I feel it so I won't put bacteria on my face. i cleanse my pillow cases and dn't use dryer sheets(becuse they add oil and greasy fat) on my clothes!! WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING WRONG!! I haven't met anyone who devoted this much of their time to solving their acne and I dont think you have either. Even all of my makeup is made for break out prone skin!! My skin is getting a wee better every day, but not fast enough!! PLEASE HELP ME!! iM SO desperate its not funny!! (@ all!)
