Hello loves

Okay I have read all the posts "about my face" but my question is what is congested skin is it something with your pores I have recently brought Indian healing clay worlds most powerful facial deep pore cleansing and biore acne clearing scrub ( I am out of that) and play total effects 7 in one revitalizing foaming cleanser and moisturizer oil free moisturizer for sensitive skin I don't understand and toner Avalon organics vitamin c renewal balancing toner I don't use all theses products at once lol

Congested skin is not what everyone thinks it is , it's not trapped dirt and oil it's trapped dead skin which keeps your pores blocked and also blocks sebum under the skin and harsh scrubs really aren't the best way to address it Alpha hydroxy acid is a better choice to exfoliate with if that's to strong then enzymes are a good choice and also using products with Bha which is salicylic acid which helps clear out your pore walls.

They don't have a high enough percentage hun and I know the cleanser has salicylic but what has alpha hydroxy acid in it? you can try Alpha hydroxy exfoliating pads it's formulated specifically for exfoliating

Traci is point on with her advice as she works in the biz. Alpha hydroxy is your bestfriend to clear up congested skin and enzyme scrubs are great too if your skin can't handle alpha hydroxy. Enzymes can come in the form of a non-suds cleanser or in a powder form that is activated by adding a dash of water and applying to skin as if your washing it. I use one from AmorePacific from time to time but alpha hydroxy reaches a smidge deeper than an enzyme.
