Concerns of Congestion
Congestion has long been one of skincare’s most searched concerns and is defined by textural irregularities, enlarged pores and uneven skin tone. This can be caused by an increased sebum production and an abnormal buildup of dead skin cells, which accumulate within pores.
Congestion can be identified through visible shine, often a result of excess oil visible on the skin’s surface. Blocked pores and textural irregularities are another concern associated with congestion and are a result of a build-up of dead skin and excess sebum. Congested pores can make pores seem more visible and can cause closed comedones — appearing as texture on the skin.
