The Skin Nerd: Pore me- are large pores a solvable skin concern?

Pores are a misunderstood element of our skin. They aren’t doors — they don’t “open” or “close”— and they serve plenty of useful purposes, rather than simply being an aesthetic annoyance to some.

Our pores are the opening that hairs poke through and the funnel that allows our skin to secrete sebum, it’s own special sauce that helps to hydrate, protect and balance the skin. In this respect, we should be thanking them.
