I had nasty acne from about age 17 to 20... tried Proactiv, did not work AT ALL (despite adhering to their regimen). I started using Neutrogena Deep Clean Scrub at age 20 and haven't had a problem since, unless I have extreme stress. I used to use it every day, but for the last few years I've cut back to every other day and that seems to work just as well.
After washing, I usually put on the Clinique moisturizing lotion (the light yellow one; usually there's a sample of it in ever Bonus bag they give out, which my mother always gets) because it's the only non-scented, non-irritating lotion that I've been able to find. And that's about it.
