The pill is 99.9% effective when used properly. If you're comfortable with those odds, then don't use a condom. There is never any harm with the "pull out" method, although realize that this isn't completely effective either. However, if you're using the pill perfectly, pregnancy is highly unlikely.
It's common to have an acne outbreak when first starting any pill. You need to give any brand several full cycles until the acne calms itself.
