Could I be aggravating my acne by switching skincare products too often?

Does skin break out as it's adjusting to a new skincare routine, or could my switching products so often be causing more acne somehow in some other way?

Then followed by Victoria's Secret body lotion all over my body. As for my pores, I use Clinique pore minimizer mask. I would like to see what other women out there use.

Are skincare products with alcohol in it bad for the skin? I've recently purchased some Biotherm products but after reading some online customer reviews about the particular ones I have, I realized that they contain alcohol (it says "alcohol denat." in the ingredients lists). I've heard that alcohol clogs pores or is very bad for the skin... now I'm debating whether or not I should go and return these skincare products (is Biotherm a good brand anyway?). I'm pretty sure I have combination skin (oily T-zone). Would the products still dry out my skin?

My skin is slightly oily on my cheeks and chin. Thanks x
What is the worse smelling skincare product that you have ever tried? For me, Derma e's Vitamin E 12,000 IU Creme Deep Moisturizing formula smells SICKENING!

I was actually planning on using this on my face, so I guess I would put tissue paper in my nose until the smell goes away. ugh.. my dog hates it too yuck, I don't think I can stand it. I will return it to amazon.com even though it's a bit of a hassle

What is the best skincare routine for me? I have quite a few spots, particularly on my cheeks and chin; I've always had fairly bad skin, but it's been a lot better during the last couple of years. Recently it's got worse than it ever has been before, and I'm reluctant to go to the doctor about it until I've tried everything I possibly can. I try not to change my routine too often, always cleanse, tone and moisturise, and have tried products for oily, normal and sensitive skin throughout the last yeas, and none of them seem to work. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks :-)
Where would I find an agent or distributer who will take on my skincare range of products to sell? I am a beauty therapist and have developed these wonderful products that are 100% natural. The thing is that I want someone to take them on and sell them for me. I have been going to the field days and exhibiting at the beauty expos at sydney and melbourne but I am not a sales person as such...I want soemone else to do it maybe as a commission based thing or for them to wholesale off me and take to the field days etc themselves. These products sell themselves, as the sales pitch you offer a complimentary hand treatment and 1 out of 3 sales are guaranteed!
