Skin woes

I rarely get acne. But when I do, they are really huge, which really annoys me to no end. I have tried a few creams here and there. Some work, some don't. Right now, I have no remedy for my zits and I am close to considering acne pills as a solution. I reckon the culprit is that I am wearing makeup on a regular basis now for work, which was a practice I never did observe before. So I guess my skin is screaming now "Give me a break!" It seems like I have to be more diligent in my skin regimen so I don't get anymore of them bothersome zits.
