Acne and Frizzy Hair

I've been in a battle with my skin and hair for years, and at last I've come to seek some advice. My face is covered in acne (I don't remember what I looked like without it), and so far nothing has helped. The sensitive skin solutions don't hit the acne hard enough, and stronger solutions make my skin itch and flake after a few days. Proactiv brought the acne down to a slightly more manageable level, but after the first few months the price became a bit much. I also found myself slathering on facial moisturizers to get rid of the white, dry skin flakes which may have contributed to the longevity of a certain level of acne even after a few months on the program.

As for the hair, I have long blonde hair that's technically straight, except for the frizz and ponytail holder kinks that never want to go away. I've had it chopped off a few times and used different conditioners and shampoos to help fight against frizz and split ends. Kind of like with my skin, my hair gets greasy fast but then freaks out when I use things to battle the grease. Conditioners that might help with the frizz leave my hair flat and greasy before noon. On the rare occasion that I wear it down (it's a little below shoulder length now), people say I should wear it down more often. I'd like to, but the frizz/grease battle makes it a mess and a constant hassle.

Is there anything out there that might get rid of the acne and the frizz without leading to dry skin and greasy-looking hair?
