Blemishes get red after skin routine. is it normal??

Question

my blemishes such as pimples/zits/etc. get red and inflamed after i wash my face, tone, and moisturize. i dont know if its any of the products i use (aveeno skin brightening daily scrub, neutrogena alcohol-free toner, aveeno ultra calming moisturizer with SPF 15) i dont think they're that harsh on my skin. i have combination skin; oily on my T zone and normal on the cheeks and also some acne. but after like an hour when my skin starts to feel a little oily again, the redness is gone and my skin looks fine. so its kinda embarrasing at mornings in school where my acne looks worse than it is. ive been thinking that this happens cause im stripping the natural oils/nutrients/moisturizers/etc. off my skin, but every product strips a a little bit of that right?

does this happen to you??

what should i do??

should i change my skin routine??

and also, i have dark spots (hyperpigmentation) on my skin from pimples, so how do i get rid of that?? i heard mederma, witch hazel, and lemon juice works well. i want something that'll make my scars disappear or very unnoticeable really fast like in a month

Answer 1

One day wash with ur normal routine then the following just was with water.  Then maybe u can see a difference.

Answer 2

Proactive..  it will help with all of your problems.  And it sounds like you are using too many different products together.  Try one brand (proactive) and see if that doesn't help within the week.  I swear by it.
