Question

I found that there are two quite effective routes to deal with congestion. One has been glycolic acid for me - I had a travel sized kit of the MDF problem skin products and that cleared up all the bumps very well. I have also found that there are some natural products that are very good at this also - namely Decleor's Essential Balm is very good at clearing up congested skin and is also very pleasant to use (though this is a personal opinion - I prefer the smell and texture of it to the harsher MDF products). Whichever way you go, you should make sure that you do have a good exfoliation routine going and that will help clear out your skin.

I really like the Jurlique Herbal Recovery Gel, I was one of those people that did see results with it (i.e. glowy skin). However, this is not an exfoliant therefore I would not expect it to help much (if at all) with any clogged pores.
