Breakouts and acne scarring! Help.

So my face has broken out recently and I'm unsure if it's the purging process of my products or if it's just a bad breakout? It's never broken out this badly before. But that is my first question. My second is, how can I reduce/get rid of the scars this breakout has left and is leaving? The products I use are these.

Two moisturizers and exfoliants seems a bit much. Eliminating one each should help lessen the breakout. For scars, vitamin e and SPF will help.

May I ask why are you using two exfoliants?
Yes, it is normal because you are using an exfoliant with Salicylic Acid. Rapid cell turn over process is occurring therefore purging will happen.

I switch exfoliants every few days and also the same with moisturizers. I don't use them both at the same time. And after the purging is over should my skin clear up?
