    I've noticed my skin has cleared up a lot by eating more fruits and veggies and exercising. What do you mean by 'dark neck'? Isn't the neck usually the same color as the face?

    Dark skin on the neck can be a symptom of diabetes. It's called acanthosis nigricans. Are you diabetic?

    Clear skin is a combination of things.... lots of water, fresh fruits, vegetables, exercise, sleep and a good skin care routine. I use a scrub with salicylic acid in it for blackheads/acne. If I eat a lot of junk/chips/chocolate then I break out. Dark skin pigmentation, there are products on the marketplace that can help but make sure there's no medical reason first. Your skin is a reflection of your inner health (unless you have systemic acne, whole different issue.. see a dermatologist). Clean up your diet and your skin should follow.
