Facial skin looks healthiest when the skin’s natural oil production is balanced and it looks smoothest when pores are clean and tight. Skin pores are openings associated with hair follicles that excrete oils and sweat. Natural oils are excreted via skin pores to lubricate the skin. Oil, dirt and dead skin cells can form a plug that clogs skin pores and promotes bacterial growth.
