Treating acne?

Hey guys, I have like the weirdest skin and it seems that when I’m not treating my acne or washing my face it is almost completely clear. However when I start using product I break out immediately, often in painful pimples. I only use gentle products and try to keep my skincare routine super simple. I’ve used several different brands and routines but nothing seems to work.

Does anyone else experience this? Will it clear up if I stay consistent?

If anyone could give me any advice or info that would be amazing :)
