I been suffering from acne for like a solid five years. It started out small then it was very red now it just seems like I have clogged pores and nothing will get rid of it. I started a new skincare regimen last month and I have not seen any change . I tend to have very oily skin. I need some tips and ideas please.

Routine

La Roche Salicylic Acid Wash 

Rosewater Toner

Trader Joe™s lotion with spf 15 

Night 

Double Cleanse - Cerave Foaming Wash

Panoxyl 10%

Rosewater Toner

The ordinary niacinimiade 

Trader Joe™s lotion with spf 15

Few things:

1. When you say "double cleanse" do you mean you wash twice? Bad idea to do that. You want to limit irritation.
2. No SPF needed at night. Just a facial moisturizer.
3. Sal acid is weak, so I'd switch to benzoyl peroxide both morning and night.

Boiling it all down though, I would just say read the regimen and follow it. You can use other products with the regimen if you need to, but follow the regimen steps precisely and you'll get clear. And add in 10% glycolic acid as well right from the start since you're already accustomed to benzoyl peroxide.
