I generally kill skin hotspots by using a very soft PhotoShop
paintbrush at about 25% opacity and 50% fill. I just pick up some
skin tone an paint it in carefully over the glare spot. Sometimes I
do a bit of cloning as well.
That works well. Have you tried the patch tool instead of the clone
tool?
I've found if I bring the colour up and need texture, this works with
less fuss than cloning, since Photoshop will match the densities
quite well.
I tried the patch tool just the other day on some blemishes. It worked
well, and I expect I'll be using it again.

I use the patch tool quite a bit. Besides removing blemishes, it's
really useful to quickly lift dark shadows under eyes, as in the shot
linked below. It also works really well to do tricky things like
removing a blemish out from under a hair. You can use the lasso tool to
create protected areas so that the patch (or healing brush) won't try to
copy dark nearby objects into an area you are healing.
I used these tools in this headshot ...
