Extremely clogged pores

[rissssakk]

So little back story: 

I work in a warehouse at UPS loading the trucks 6 days a week. Aka i can’t escape the dirt/dust as it’s everywhere. I’ll wipe my face with either a paper towel, cleansing wipe, etc multiple times a day & each time it’s equally, if not more dirty than the time before. I don’t have pimples persay but you can definitely see that every single little pore one my cheeks, forehead, chin, nose are completely clogged with dirt. And I don’t really want to call them black heads, but they’re legit little dirt heads lol. I can’t seem to find anything that is helping me start to clear up the problem. Please help me with recommendations!!!

The Paula’s choice BHA exfoliant is really good for that and it’s pretty sensitivity friendly. I have extremely sensitive skin and I can still get away with it once a week easy and I see really good results. I’ve also recommended it to others and no one has ever had a problem with it so it seems decently versatile. The youth to the people cleanser is a bit of a splurge but it’s a really nice cleanser for clogged pores and I’ve recommended it to people before who love it. It’s not specifically for that, but I find it does a really good job at dissolving stuff stuck in your pores or on the surface of your skin and my skin just feels clean afterwards. The Ordinary AHA “blood” mask (called that because it’s red lol) would probably be really good for you if you have skin that can take a more intense product. I still use it a few times a month with sensitive skin and can handle that. It works really well, but I wouldn’t use it more than like once every two weeks-ish at most bc it’s a lot.

@rissssakk  What's your current skincare routine (brands + product names, from cleanser to moisturizer/sunscreen)? Also, have you already tried a leave-on salicylic acid (BHA) exfoliant? BHA's good at getting down into pores to degunk them. But I don't want to recommend many products without knowing what you already use.
