I work in fast food and even though I'm stationed in the front register, I still have to help prepare food and the oil from the fries especially clog up my pores and my face feels oily and bumpy. I have a facial cleaner I started using, but is there anything else I can use to make my face smoother?

I use a Clarisonic device and it helps a great deal to unclog my pores. I don't work in fast food though. Good luck.

Clean & Clear makes some oil-blotting sheets. You gently press them against your face and it soaks up oil.

I've had problems with my complexion since I was a teen. A few years ago I found the best cleanser I had ever used. It's called Alaffia African Black Soap. It's quite concentrated, so can be diluted with water. The stuff is amazing and very affordable 'cause one bottle lasts for months. It's important to stick with Alaffia, though, or possibly Nubian Heritage Black Soap. Some other brands are wonky...fillers and such.

Try using a buff puff? They have 2 strengths, gentle and regular. I use my facial cleanser on a gentle puff. I get my puffs on amazon. Some of the non brands m.ight be harsh.
