OTC-Lo hasn't been tested yet to see if it helps the skin, I believe. It did NOT help mine. It's not going to make your skin any worse if you're new to birth control, PhiMuLady150. Mine did get worse when I used it, but it was after I had been on full strength OTC. OTC-lo doesn't work for a lot of people- very common for breakthrough bleeding, etc. which is a pain in the ass. I tried it for several months (had only switched to it b/c it was cheaper after OTC's price went way up) and had problems. So I'm on Trinessa now,w hich is the generic OTC.
But if this is your first time on BC, you definitely need to give it a couple months for your body to adjust. When I first started on BC with OTC my period was really screwed up, but it worked itself out.
