My skin is kind of oily, but not very oily. how can i stop acne from happening?

Scientific Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated hasn't cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. Acne is a non-curable, non-lifestyle-related illness that remits on its own at some future time. I was able to stop managing mine when I was 50. Until then, work hard and stay on top of it. Best wishes.
