I don't have a branded blush but all cream blushes are perfect as they also provide coverage and they look good when you want those no makeup looks but a little color in your face.

WEAR YOUR SUNSCREEN!!! this is the most important step for your skin, however many sunscreens are too oily which can clogg your pores and create more acne. this is one of the most risk-free and light sunscreen ever.

oil cleanser is a key part for unclogging all of those small pores, this is one of my favorite oil cleansers (always double cleanse though) does not leave your skin greasy and is very easy to take off.
