Skin help, please!

I usually have relatively clear skin, with exception to the occasional breakout. But lately I've been experiencing whiteheads around my nose and on my chin. How do I get rid of them? The spots around my nose I can usually cover up with foundation, but the area on my chin is very red and difficult to cover up. It makes me extremely insecure! Please, please help. I have Biore pore strips but I've heard that they don't work for white heads. I wash my face two times a day and use a toner and acne treatment, and I exfoliate twice a week. The redness and whiteheads still remain! Help! D:

I use a generic version of Proactiv, it's a 3 step stste from up and up I believe. This is it http://www.makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=156832/Up-&-Up-Three-step-acne-care-system/Unlisted-Brand/Skincare---Face.

Possibly it could be because of oily T-zone. When exfoliating put some scrub on tip of your ring finger, damp it with water and work it on the whiteheads area very gently. Don't do harsh, you can get rashes! Hope this helps :)
