Soap, water and sun doesn't help at all. I speak form experience.
I even get more pimples from exposure to the sun because the heat makes my skin even oilier and therefore more prone to acne.
What's your age? Adolescence isn't going to play fair, and the formula's worked well for millions for decades.
You get pimples because of what your skin is doing. Keeping it clean helps a lot. Sun (UV) helps kill stuff that promotes problems. Sweating is GOOD because if flushes stuff out (but, yes, if the pore is clogged...).
You also tend to notice less acne with people who frequent salt water pools/beaches. Probably because it acts as a natural desiccant to remove excess oils from the skin.
Perhaps wash the face with a solution of aspirin & water (an old remedy).
