Does putting a rag that was just soaked with warm water on your face unclog the pores of dirt oil and makeup?

Yes warm water opens your pores. I would suggest after the rag wash your face with a cleanser and rinse with cold water to then close your pores back up. You could also skip the cleanser depending on your skin type, but try to rinse your face after with cold water to close your pores. Hope this helped!
