Pores do not open and close like a window. Warm water helps kills germs on the face and body. Hot water can be too harsh and over drying, and cold water will not kill germs. Exfoliation is important when combatting acne, as this will take dirt away from compacted pores, and slough away dead skin cells, which can also aggravate acne prone skin.

Actually, the best thing to do is....when you first wet your face, do it with warm water, not hot. This opens up the pores so your acne facewash can get into them. After you're done washing with your soap, rinse off with warm water again, and then switch to cold water, as this will close up your pores.

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.

A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.
The secret is never to touch the spots

Why u are washing your face with a soap?isn't to harsh for your skin ? IT is not over drying your skin?The best u use an acne-appropriate cleanser that rinses clean.And lukewarm water(room temperature).Don't forget to moisturize after( best pure aloe Vera gel-at any drug store).

Use very warm, not too hot of water. This will open the pores of your skin.
Cold water closes the pores.
