Here's a link to an article w/ directions for an at home facial steam: http://www.care2.com/channels/solutions/self/189
Steaming will open your pores and allow the dirt to come out.
Or you can try one of these masks and toners to exfoliate your skin and help keep pores clean:
You can crush up 6 plain, uncoated aspirin tablets and mix it w/ a little water to make mask.
Mix 6 aspirin tablets with a little aloe to make a mask.
Use about 6 uncoated tablets, witch hazel, tee trea oil, and aloe to make a thin paste.
For toner:
8 ounce bottle of distilled water add four uncoated aspirin
or
mix of 1/2 water, 1/2 witch hazel, 15 aspirin, and 2 drops of tea tree essential oil and 2 drops of rosemary essential oil

you can use steam to open your pores - either from a pot of boiling water or in the shower. unfortunately, they don't stay open very long, once they cool, they close again.
opening your pores will not get rid of your acne. you need to see a dermatologist for help with that. or at least your regular doctor. there are some wonderful products out there available by prescription that will clear acne up quickly and very well.

You can open you pores by going somewehre warm. What you should do is either go to somewhere with a steam room or you could just get a wash clothe run it under how warmer and put it on your face it will open your pores. It works for me.

Well...I know steam opens your pores. At night steam your face over hot water for 10 minutes before you go to bed.
