Are skincare products with alcohol in it bad for the skin?

I’ve recently purchased some Biotherm products but after reading some online customer reviews about the particular ones I have, I realized that they contain alcohol (it says “alcohol denat.” in the ingredients lists). I’ve heard that alcohol clogs pores or is very bad for the skin… now I’m debating whether or not I should go and return these skincare products (is Biotherm a good brand anyway?).
I’m pretty sure I have combination skin (oily T-zone). Would the products still dry out my skin?

What is a good skincare routine for a teenager with occasional acne?

I have occasional acne and clogged pores in my nose. I think my skin is combination(oily in the T-Zone and dry on the cheeks). Can anyone recommend a brand or product that’s not too pricey? Also, should all my skincare products be from the same brand? Sorry for all of the questions.
Thanks! I’m 15.
