Well, there's your problem right there.
Zits happen when you're 16. Unless it's an absolutely ridiculous number of them, wait and see if it goes away. I just started getting a bunch a while ago and it's starting to go away. I didn't put anything on my face for them or anything though, I just was like "meh w/e I guess my face will be lumpy now" and then it eventually became less lumpy.
I would've gotten first reply but I forgot to hit post

don't use bar soap on your face it's not meant for the more sensitive skin on your face
i take care of my face religiously (i mean im kinda expected to bc im a girl but w/e). my favorite routine is micellar water and then a soothing toner on my face in the morning followed by a light moisturizer (i love clinique's dramatically different GEL (not lotion bc i have oily skin) but it's pricey). when i shower, i wash my face with biore's baking soda gel facewash and, if my blackheads are really bad, follow it up with garnier's kaolin clay + charcoal mask, and then moisturizer on my face after my shower.
but everyone's skin is different, part of why my routine is so involved is because i have super oily skin. but also change your pillowcase every couple of days, keep your hands washed, and don't over-exfoliate. i made the mistake of exfoliating every day for a long time and was constantly frustrated by little entrepreneur les and clogged pores, but once i started being more gentle, my skin cleared up a bit.
Gock.:
change your bedsheets and pillowcases very often
