Somewhere in between. These are some things told to me by my dermatologist:
Scrubbing the skin strips away its natural oils, which protect the skin from irritants.
Too much oil and dirt will clog pores and cause breakouts(once you're passed the hormonal acne phase).
I actually use my skin's natural oils as moisturizer-as the forehead and cheeks start to get shiny, I massage it back in. I also use an OTC moisturizer after washing because of the first statement.
But in the long run, I think one is either blessed with great skin or isn't. I wasn't, so I have to watch what I do.
