Answer
Better skin diet
# Fish contains oils that will help nourish your skin. This diet includes fish options at lunch and dinner to add lustre and softness to your complexion.
# Ground flaxseeds (linseeds) are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which promote good skin health. This meal plan adds flaxseed to your breakfast cereal for a healthy start to your day.
# Vitamin A is essential for healthy skin. This diet includes plenty of dark orange (carrots, sweet potatoes) and dark green (broccoli, spinach, kale) vegetables - all of which are high in vitamin A.
# Vitamin E helps promote good-looking skin, which is why this diet includes nuts such as hazelnuts and almonds - which are high in vitamin E - as snacks.
* Consume a sufficient amount of fruits and vegetables while staying within energy needs. Two cups of fruit and two-and-a-half cups of vegetables per day are recommended for a reference 2,000-calorie intake, with higher or lower amounts depending on the calorie level.
* Choose a variety of fruits and vegetables each day. In particular, select from all five vegetable subgroups (dark green, orange, legumes, starchy vegetables, and other vegetables) several times a week.
* Consume 3 or more ounce-equivalents of whole-grain products per day, with the rest of the recommended grains coming from enriched or whole-grain products. In general, at least half the grains should come from whole grains.
* Consume 3 cups per day of fat-free or low-fat milk or equivalent milk products.
A well-moisturized skin is somewhat less prone to developing of wrinkles. Drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day ensures proper hydration of the body and helps reduce skin dryness. Experts usually recommend drinking 6-8 glasses of water a day. Coffee and sodas are not a good substitute for water because they contain caffeine, which is a diuretic, i. e., a substance promoting the excretion of water via urine. Also, do not drink too much fluid 2-3 hours before going to bed. This may cause morning puffiness and excessively stretch your skin.

Ok. First of all how would you describe your skin type (other than having no acne). Do you have oily,dry,normal,or combination skin? More in likely you have either normal or dry skin if you don't have acne. Also is your skin sensitive?
If you answer those questions, I'll be happy to find you a good skin care regime!
Hope I helped;)
