First of all, you need to identify exactly what skin problems you have. You have not specified exactly what problems you are experiencing that are preventing you from having clear facial skin. There are several problems that people experience, including blackheads, whiteheads, acne or pimples, sun spots (also misleadingly known as liver spots), freckles, and large pores. There are some common treatments that basically aim at ensure that your skin is healthy, no matter what problem you are suffering from, but it is also necessary to address the causes of each specific problem.
For example, sun spots and freckles are always related to exposure to sunlight. Freckles are a genetic trait, due to which sun exposure does not result in an even tan, but in irregular spots of pigmentation. Sun spots are also related to sun exposure, but they usually occur after years and years of excessive exposure to sunlight. In both these cases, avoiding sunlight is an essential part of the solution. If you have acne, then the best treatment would be to use an over the counter cream containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, as this is much more reliable than any home remedy.
Since you have not mentioned any specific skin problem, we shall simply provide some general tips. First of all, hygiene is of course very important for good skin. However, you should avoid using soap too often, as it dries out the skin too much. Whenever you do use soap, you should ensure that it is a mild one. This is all the more important if you have dry skin, in which case you should also regularly use moisturizer.
Regular exfoliation is also important, as it helps get rid of dead skin cells from the surface, letting new, healthy skin come to the surface at the same time. If you want, you can use a commercially available exfoliant, or else you can simply prepare your own by mixing some rice flour, honey, and sandalwood powder. Similarly, you can make an excellent face mask by simply mixing yogurt with a little honey. You haven't mentioned whether you have dry or oily skin, but if you do, you may need a more suitable face mask. To use a face mask, you simply need to apply the mixture to your face, leave it on for twenty minutes to half an hour, and then wash it off. After washing it off, you can splash your face with a little rose water.
