Can you answer The Luna Divider’s question about Acne?:

Like, I’ve never had an acne problem. Never more than a pimple or two on my face, for which I am very glad. And I’m 16! But then I see some guys at school with their face covered in pimples. And most people just fall in between, with enough pimples on their face. What determines how bad your acne is? I know it has to do with hormones and puberty, but do your hormones directly influence the level of acne?
Oh yes I do consider myself lucky, I keep wondering when my luck will run out!

I have blackheads on my nose and they are EVERYWHERE. The rest of my skin is fairly clear, except for a pimple every once in a while. I also have a few blackheads under my eyes where I can feel the edge of my bone is. I am really bad at remembering to wash my face. I usually wash it in the shower, but my blackheads continue to get worse. I have tried the Biore strips, and I have the Nuetrogena blackhead elimiating stuff. Are there any other good products to try?
