Brief Answer:
Below is the list.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks posting the query,
I suggest you to not use too many creams and cosmetics on your daughter's face. As she's very young they'll end in leaving bad scars. She can use clindamycin gel every night before bed.
Salicylic acid face wash 3 times a day.
Ask her not to touch or scratch the acne.
just leave it don't be too much bothered it will vanish onces her hormonal changes comes to normal.

Any issues do follow up.
Take care.
