I've found personally creatine irritates my acne.

I'm currently trying a no-washing experiment.

So far the results have been superb for me. It's been about 2 weeks. Red Blotches and whiteheads are literally non-existent. However, skin becomes dead and flaky.

Give it a try if you have extreme acne. I've tried everything from clearsil to accutante with no results.

Seems like living like a neanderthal (ie. Not washing and eating "basic" foods) really absolved all my acne issues. Although after being on the no-wash experiment I've even tried cheating on my diet, even started drinking coffee again. I'm so happy that I can drink coffee and not get acne.

I wish you the best of luck everyone. I hope your acne can be solved. I think it's really a case by case basis and if you want, you should definitely try not washing your face. It works for me, my particular acne is the deep rooted kind. I'll get bumps under my skin but they don't surface with the no-wash technique.
