Does having open pores worse than clogged pores? why do some people want to open their pores and some want to close them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clean pores: Oil glands can clog pores with oil and it is desirable to clean them out to avoid black heads and pimples which come from clogged pores. Using a salicylic acid wash can help clean pores and rid the skin of pimples and blackheads.
