My skin used to be perfect and flawless like two months ago and now it is seemingly a disaster. I'm 16 and I'm pretty developed as in like boobs, hips, etc. but I'm almost done growing and I thought the extent of my puberty was over. Now my skin is oily all the time and I have way more pimples. I wash it twice a day with like basic neutrogena oil-free cleanser and use an astringent but its not getting better and I don't know why it got worse. Could it have been the changing of the seasons?

As one who has battled horrible acne for over 40 years, I well understand your feeling of distress.
What caused this? Could be the change in seasons. Could be stress -- you just started a new and probably intense junior or senior year. Also, using the wrong cleansing regime can make acne worse.
Or it could be a hormonal shift. Getting boobs is just the beginning of the hormonal changes occurring within you, and that keep occurring at random intervals right up through menopause. Acne can flare during pregnancy. Acne can flare when the baby is delivered. Why we start suddenly producing more of one hormone or less of another along the way often is without explanation.
You should consult a dermatologist. (See below for a link to the American Academy of Dermatolgy for referrals of physicians in your area and more information on skin problems.) If that does not get things under control in a few months, a chat with endocrinologist (hormone doctor) preferably one who specializes in GYN-endocrinology might be in order.
Best of luck and don't give up!

Look, you can try all the stuff you want, but you get the results temporarily. I tried a lot and then i met a specialist and he recommended this and so do i. Bassicaly you pituitary gland in you head releases hormones, you get acne because of impurities in the pituitary gland (w/e it is). First you should drink a lot of water. Second wash your face 3 times a day other than shower.
BUT MOST IMPORTANT: what really works is if you balance on your head and arms for like a minute twice a day. Like go near a wall put a pillow on the ground, put ur head on it and push off the ground, so basically your head and arms are your feet. Hold the position for like 45sec and repeat it twice a day. I got results within a week and it reduced significantly over the month.
JUST BE PATIENT, STAY OFF CHOCOLATES

The same exact thing happened to me, I had perfect flawless skin then just one day I completely broke out and have to get certain foundation for oily skin. I started using proactiv and now as long as I wash regularly and get the right foundation my skin stays pretty clear, unless I'm completely stressed...
eeek
zits suck.

I strongly believe you cut down on the coke cola it will help. I believe coke cola make you stress out more. You need drink more fluids such as Pineapple Juice or Water is better.

Could be anything such as diet, allergies, stress, or hormone fluctuation (trust me, at 16, you are not done with those by a long shot.)
