Make sure that the body wash or facial cleanser is oil free! I used a face wash that just broke my face out even more after I used it. I never had an acne problem anywhere, just used it to clean. After a few days, I had like 5 new blemishes. I switched to neutrogena oil free wash and it worked like magic. I sometimes wonder if the gym you go to is clean. I know I NEVER use towels they offer because I just don't trust them. I know if my towels are clean.
When you start any kind of acne wash, your naturally going to break out at first. It is the oil and dirt being pulled out of your skin and up to the surface. It should take a week or so for you to start to see a "clearing" of blemishes. My wife went through cosmotology school and is licensed to do facials, hair, manicures and all that beauty stuff. She has always told me to shower right after workouts and also always shower BEFORE you go to bed. If you shower in the morning, the oil and bacteria will get onto your sheets when you sleep and then you lay in it until you wash them. The funniest thing I ever was told was to shower before and after you use a sauna. The oil and dirt doesn't have a chance to get into your open pores in the sauna because it has been washed off. Also, after you shower and before you turn off the water, turn it from hot to cold so that you close your pores and dirt and oil have a harder time getting into your pores.
