Two things I do: I keep a little plastic bottle with a flip top full of baking soda in the shower and add a couple of shakes of that to pretty much any facial wash I use. I think I usually grab something from Neutrogena. It's a super inexpensive way to exfoliate.
I also use hydrogen peroxide as a toner. I learned that trick from a friend who's been in the facial business for years. After I wash my face, I just use a cotton round and go for it. The combined cost of a box of baking soda and a bottle of peroxide is maybe $3.
