Quick and effective home remedies for a stuffy nose include using a humidifier or vaporizer at night, drinking plenty of fluids to keep yourself hydrated, and placing a warm compress on your face to help blood flow and circulation.
If you're interested in over-the-counter options, try a saline nasal spray or a medicated nasal spray such as Flonase to open the sinuses and help with congestion. Medications that contain pseudoephedrine can also help break up mucus and decongest your sinuses.

Anything that will vasodilate is the key, because stuffiness is a result of vasoconstriction in the nasal area. Products that vasodilate, like peppermint oil, would work or use other products that can diffuse and bring warm air. For example, standing over a pot of boiling water with a couple drops of peppermint or lemongrass oil in it would be helpful.
