“How to get rid of my acne?”
I've been using facial foam, facial scrub, a toner, and a moisturizer for my skin. I use LS BL cream for my face. The LS BL cream was good but now the left side of my face has more pimples.

Stop scrubs and over drying - Accurabe
Forget the facial foams, scrubs and toners. They typically dry out the skin, make the skin more sensitive, and don't do much for preventing (or even treating) break outs. Choosing the wrong type of moisturizer can also lead to increased breakouts. Your best bet for home treatments would be benzoyl peroxide gels, salicylic acid solutions or Differin. If this does not work, you would be wise to consult with a board certified dermatologist. The sooner the acne breakouts are controlled, the less likely you will develop permanent acne scars. Best of luck.
