aspirin thing usually eats off skin faster than it dies, helps,. acne is a bacteria, bacteria like warm moist things. try using a new towel and face cloth every shower. maybe change your bed Linen and shower before bed instead of in the morning. keep up on pillow case changes a lot of people sweat and or drool in there sleep making a pillow a good host for the bacteria. if you share your towels with a family keep a few out so each will get a chance to fully dry before someone else uses it again. acne is not a thing indicating dirt, acne will not survive in dirt, it likes only nice clean humans. if you are always washing you could be killing off the natural germs that normally kill the acne or washing off important chemicals your body might be making to fight them. some people are just very tasty to them unfortunately and sometimes a doctor will prescribe tetracycline to help kill them off.
if aspirin (which is acidic) did not control them then maybe something alkali will (alkali is opposite of acid like baking soda), be careful too much alkali can be just like too much acid to your skin and burn you, (drano is alkali and it will eat you).
