The active ingredient is salicylic acid in most pimple/face washes, it reduces sebum (oil) that causes pimples. Rinse your face with cool water and pat (don't wipe) dry. 2 days or so the dryness/flakiness will go away as the acid will have been washed from pours.
Keep facial product to a minimum, if you reduce sebum on your face your body will compensate by producing more, so its best to rinse with water a few times a day and pat dry. This allows the body to produce sebum at a natural rate and you can keep it out of hair follicles by patting dry with a clean paper towel.
This worked well for me in my younger yrs of being a pimple face, my wife also suffered during her pregnancies and tried my suggestion, it worked for her too.
acne is caused by a build up of sebum on the face
apply emu oil every night (leave it on while you sleep) and change your pillow casing every day
Don't forget to wash it off in the morning
I don't believe adding emu oil will help your problem skin, it may help with infection, but it won't reduce sebum production, so you will still suffer from pimples and therefore infection.
If you are terribly bad you can ask your doctor for antibiotics, this will reduce infection but still won't stop sebum production.
Your problem is an over production of facial oil (sebum) there is nothing you can do that will halt your body from producing it, but you can manage it by using fresh water to rinse your skin a few (3-5) times a day. Pat dry with paper towels. This will help your body to even out production.
You need to stop the use of product on the skin, this only gives short term results (days to weeks) than your body compensates and over produces sebum, making the issue worse than before. If you like you can use products for special occasions...say a wedding or something, use product a few days to a week beofre and your skin will clear up a bit, but than it will come back worse for a while before you even out again.
For now, just rinse with water for 2-3 days to clense your skin of the salicylic acid and you will be fine.
I heard taking vitamin d will help to?

I stopped using anything, just washing my face 3-5 times a day, and washing it with cetapil in the shower before bed. My face is getting better.
