why do I still get pimples even when I wash my face atleast three times a day, use acne stuff called benzaclin and differin, and use acne moistuizer. its not like my acne is really bad or anything, but I have a few zits on my forehead and its annoying because they dont go away quick, and when they do, I just get another zit. What can I do to make it so I have no zits on my face.. is there any wash or like pore clearing facial thing I can do by myself?

Firstly hun stop using that many products, pick one, and stick with that for a few weeks, it wont clear up over night so be patient. Using to many products dries out your skin and some even put unnecassary oils into your skin. And don't wash your face 3 times a day unless absolutely necessary, theres nothing wrong with it but try 2 times a day, morning and night.
To find out which product is best for you, like the other answers said visit your local chemist/dermatologist/doctor. Your doctor may be able to give you some special pills for it, my friend got prescribed them and they helped so maybe thats worth a shot.
As for pour clearing facial things you can do by yourself.. Drink water, its natural, doesn't cost and doesn't give or take anything to or from your skin.
Steam your face. Either get a bowl of hot water, not to hot, just hot enough to open your pours. Have a towel over your head so the steam goes straight to your pours. After this wash your face with cold water to close your pours.
Face packs, you might have to buy them but they are not expensive at all, look for ones specially formulated for acne/oily skin. I use them once maybe twice a week (thats all you need) and they leave my skin feeling smoothe, fresh, oil free and help towards removal of acne BUT if your zits are inflamed, open or sore, do not apply the mask as this will sting and irritate.
Drink plenty of water, keep your skin hydrated.
Avoid fatty/oily foods, because that can cause oily skin which produces acne.
Perhaps oyur hair is causing the acne, like on your forehead? If your hair touches any acne prone areas try pinning it back, even if its just for when you sleep. Alice bands keep it all together and lets the air get to your face.
Well thats all i can think of, good luck but dont expect instant miracles, it sucks but its worth it in the end.
