Obvious pores on the surface of the skin indicate _____.

• A. Oily skin areas
• B. Combination skin
• C. Dry skin areas
• D. Sensitive skin areas

Answer: (A)

Visible pores signal oily skin areas. Pores are the openings of the sebaceous (oil) glands on the skin. When these glands produce excess sebum, the surface looks slick and the pores appear larger or more noticeable, especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). In dry skin, there’s less oil, so pores tend to be less visible. Combination skin can show oiliness in some areas and dryness in others, so pore visibility isn’t uniform. Sensitive skin relates to reactivity, not pore size. So the most direct indication of obvious pores is oily skin areas.
