My experience is that sunlight is good for acne. I always thought it was the UV-light but now it seems like several light frequencies are beneficial. I guess sun-blockers will not block sun's effect on acne.
Generally I am a strong beleiver in moderate low-carb diet and fatty fish. High carbs promote bacteria growth and increases inflammatory proteins like CRP.
For some reason fish oil worsens my acne but fatty fish corresponding in five time higher doses will not, it actually improves my acne.
Sleep is really important. I have noticed that acne worsens on days where I haved suffered insomnia. Sleep is a really important tool for stress recovery. Poor sleep will hinder sufficient recovery from stress.
