Acne- afraid to try products

I've never written one of these before, so I'm sorry if I don't do it right!I have some acne, its nothing major, just from puberty. I dont know what to do because whenever I try a specific routine I dont have the patience to continue with it or pursue it right. I'm afraid that once I get committed and buckle down that it won't work. Should I just stick with my Stridex Pads and let it take it's own course? Once I start a new product it seems to make not enough of a difference or it makes it worse. Plus, mother can't stand when I spend over $8 on a product, how does she expect me to start feeling better about myself if I'm using cheap stuff I might not even commit to?
So, in nutshell, please tell me what to do about my fear of starting up a new skin product. It has gotten better since i started using random things but would it get even better if I got a real routine?  THANK YOU for even reading this!  < Previous Post Next Post >
