Clear Skin??

So since the last breakout that I had (and since starting to use the acne solutions toner) my skin has cleared up almost completely, all that is left are the annoying blackheads that I have on my nose and cheeks. I have been washing my face twice a day for about 3 weeks now, and after not seeing a whole lot of improvement I decided that it was time to contact clinique, the helpful lady said that it could take up to 6 weeks!! since I have never been had a skin care routine my face has to detox itself, I am annoyed with the blackheads now though, because my skin is now clean looking, moisturized, and looks radiant, so I have been reading skin care remedies and tips online and heard that using a scrub a couple times a week is very helpful to clear up blackheads. So off I went on new years eve to walmart to purchase the st ives apricot scrub, and biore strips. This is the 2nd time that I use the scrub and I like it, the only downside to using it is that since the toner that I am using also has salicylic acid in it my face has been kind of dry, so I am switching back to my regular toner and see if that helps. No pictures of everything that I am using yet, but I promise I will have them in a couple days... promise.
