I have very open pores, and oily skin, and white stuff comes out the sides of my nose and cheeks, like black heads but they are white. Its not pimples. And my face usually has a red color. Ive tried many face washes, and toners, and moisturizers. The best thing so far is the apricot scrub, but it fails to eliminate the white stuff from coming out the face. What is it, where does it come from, what is it called, and how can I stop it from happening. Im thinking its an internal thing, to do with the stomach or something, but im not sure.

It may just be dead skin or rough skin.

thoses are called open comedones, plugged pore, or blackheads. they're basically little kernals of oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells that have fused together creating a plug in your pore. the only thing you can do is exfoliate and wash face regularly.
