I would definetely lose the rubbing alcohol. Definetely.

I wonder, if like human acne, the more drying agent you apply, the more oil the skin secretes. So, by drying it out many times a day it is actually just producing more oil to keep up with the drying process. I don't know that kitty acne works the same way as ours, but, if so...well, you are in a vicous cycle.
