What is the best routine to have to help get rid of acne. i don't know where to start. ?

Depends on severity: Over-the-counter medications for acne are helpful and usually contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. They help kill some acne germs, reduce the amount of dead skin cells plugging pores, and decrease some of the skin oils, to dry the skin somewhat. One should not over-wash, over-scrub, or irritate the skin. OTC acne meds are usually twice a day, but less if the skin gets too dry or irritated.
