I just spent 15 minutes trying to extract blackheads from my chin, again, and I have a cluster of pimples on my cheek, again. I know I need to change something, but I don't know what to try. Perhaps one of my lovely co-SW'ers will have an idea?
What I currently do:
I pretty much only wear makeup when I work. I remove it with coconut oil and warm water. I don't often use soap on my face, but I do use a Dollar General-brand apricot scrub a couple of times a week. I use witch hazel as a toner/astringent, applied with an "exfoliating cotton round." I use Cetaphil moisturizing cream. I don't use sunscreen. Sometimes I put a Clearasil knockoff on pimples before I go to bed.
I'm 30, a vegan who usually eats well but drinks too much, and live in a hot and humid climate.
Any suggestions?

I don't have acne but my sisters really struggle with it and they swear by the body shop tea tree line. It clears up their skin almost over night it seems. I don't use it because it kind of smells and feels like icy hot on my face.
