Day 10, zit help.

Morning of Day 10, and it looks like I just hit a brand new cleasing level. My face totaly broke out and the bloody-morning-nose-blow that had gone away on Day 2 (9 month long problem previously) came back. So I guess this isn't my last day, after all. But I hate OJ anyway, so it's not that hard to put it off ... *sigh* ... I guess.

Anyway my question is: usually when I break out, I use topical stuff (face wash, salicylic acid cream.) Should I go ahead and use it, or just let my face/skin do it's business with just water wash/steam?

thanks!!
