I stopped drinking soda & started eating a little healthier, yet i keep breaking out with blackheads.is this just puberty or do i need a special diet?

Just puberty: Try washing your face with soap 3-4 times a day to keep the pores and skin clean. If you are overweight, losing weight would help.

Diet not key: Diet has very little effect on acne. Wash face with cetaphil. Use benzoin peroxide product.
