Expert Tip for Congested Skin

"Congested skin needs consistent care to stay clear and balanced. Start with a deep-cleansing cleanser to remove excess oil and impurities, followed by an exfoliator with salicylic acid to help unclog pores and prevent breakouts. Lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturisers keep skin hydrated without blocking pores, while a targeted treatment serum can refine texture and reduce blemishes. To maintain long-term results, avoid over-exfoliating and always finish with SPF to protect your skin from further irritation and damage."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is congested skin, and what causes it?

Congested skin occurs when pores become clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and impurities, often leading to blackheads, breakouts, and uneven texture. Factors like hormonal changes, makeup build-up, and not cleansing properly can contribute to congestion.

How can I clear congested skin?

A consistent skincare routine is key. Use a gentle exfoliator to remove dead skin cells, a deep-cleansing cleanser to clear pores, and a lightweight serum with ingredients like salicylic acid or niacinamide to rebalance the skin.

Which ingredients help with congestion?

Look for salicylic acid to unclog pores, niacinamide to control oil production, clay-based masks to absorb excess oil, and AHAs to gently exfoliate and smooth the skin.

Should I exfoliate congested skin daily?

No, over-exfoliating can irritate the skin and worsen congestion. Use a chemical exfoliant 2-3 times a week and balance with hydrating and soothing products to maintain skin health.

Can moisturisers help with congested skin?

Yes! Skipping moisturiser can lead to increased oil production, making congestion worse. Choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic formula to keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.

How long does it take to see results?

Clearing congestion takes time, but with consistent use of the right products, you should notice improvements in 4-6 weeks as your skin cell turnover improves.
