This is so true ever since I used The Ordinary Glycolic acid and rosehip oil I noticed my milia literally just came off! It took a few weeks and it definitely was a surprise result. I couldn't believe it I thought I would be stuck with them forever since everywhere I read said you can't get rid of them unless you go to a dermatologist. Amazing.
I was using both of these products then stopped using the toner for a couple months and have had so much milia buildup!!! Definitely going to start using the toner again I didn’t realise how good it was
Hi Renee, I just wanted to share with you my experience with milia. I started getting them a few years back, but they got significantly worse about a year ago. I watched many videos to find a solution, including yours. Anyway, I bought a cleansing facial product that I love and because of one of the videos I watched said that you need to slightly exfoliate the skin where milia forms, I started doing that with this cleanser. I’ve noticed a 70% reduction of the milia I have under my eyes in just one week. I’m so happy. The product I’m using is called Environ cleansing gel. Thanks for the videos.
Love rosehip oil as my nighttime eye treatment. Exfoliating eye cream, gotta try that... My gramma brewed pearl barley tea and used it as her toner her whole life. In college I had milia on my upper eye lid - she bossed me into leaving a tea-soaked cotton pad on the lid for several minutes every night. 3 weeks later the milia just fell off 🤯
honestly some people are gonna hate me for this but just use a sewing needle CAREFULLY, i did it and they were gone instantly. It did leave a little scab but it was gone within a week
Man, I didn't know what milia was until I watched this and realise I have some! Your videos are so informative, I love them! And you are so great to watch! Thanks a bunch xx
Wow! I tried using Pixi's glycolic acid toner on a q-tip, and one of my milia bumps fell off in less than 10 minutes! I'll definitely be keeping this up a few times a week! Thank you!!
I had a milia on my forehead for months until I started using Neogen wine exfoliating pads. After using it twice, the milia was gone! Definitely recommend giving it a try, especially if the milia is not in the sensitive eye area. It's also good for flaky skin and quicker healing of acne scars. I use it twice a week now, which seems to be a good frequency for my combination skin.
I used to get it very bad, especially on & around the eyes. I went to a dermatologist about some other rash I was having & asked about the "whiteheads" & he prescribed me retin a. This was over 20 years ago & I didn't have health insurance so keeping up with a prescription wasn't doable unfortunately. I think because I used wp mascara & used an oily eye mu remover is probably why I got them on my eyes so badly. I now use glycolic & other acids regularly to help promote the cellular turnover & exfoliation. My skin is now much drier but I will still get milia if I'm not careful & use too many products that are dimethicone heavy. I have to read labels carefully since dimethicone is often the main ingredient in most eye creams & moisturizers as well as foundations & primers. I also invested in white, bamboo very soft wash cloths that I use just for my face since it's so sensitive from retinol & acids. Thank you for this informative video. May I add, please everyone don't try & extract milia yourself. I did that with a needle & ended up with a very serious staph infection that was quite disfiguring & required emergency surgical procedure plus a month of antibiotics. Don't do it!
this is great information... do you get them on top of your eyelids? that's where i have the most trouble, and wondering if the products you use would be safe overtop the lids? thanks!!
TH-cam suggested that I watch this video and I did. After this video, I moved on to 3 more of your skincare videos and OMG I've found my favorite skincare TH-camr! I'm so glad I found your channel. I just subscribed! 👏🏼 I have Milia on my face, around my eyes, on eyelids and under eye areas (many are so close to my lashes)...pretty much everywhere. These suckers are so stubborn and won't leave my skin alone. 😡😤 I'll try your suggestions to see if I can get rid of those on my face and then move on to those that are closer to my eyes. Thank you for putting out worthy educational videos. 👍🏻👏🏼❤️💜
The Ordinary 7% glycolic acid toning solution works for milia! I had a huge one underneath my eye and I came across this video and decided to try it out. I can say it works!! I used it every night and sometimes in mornings for 2 weeks, after a few days it gradually got smaller and after 2 weeks it was hard and I picked it off!
I've had this consistent milia that just won't go away on my mobile eye lid and since TO's Azelaic acid worked wonders on decongesting my skin, one day I bravely put it on that milia.. 4 days later the milia was gone! Highly recommend it for those of you who're looking to remove milia near the eyes!
OMG, so glad you are back! I’m literally just realizing I have milia. They are clustered in my dark circles, so wearing concealer has become an ordeal. So many weird recommendations on TH-cam. Thank you for this very detailed video.
Well this is a timely video! I've suffered with milia my whole life but didn't know what they were or what caused them until this year. I literally went to a med spa to get some of them extracted for the first time TODAY!
I've had millia for 10 years now.. (I'm 23) first around the eyes and recently I noticed they are going down the cheeks too. I'll go to a dermatologist very soon.
You saved me with this video! It works. I had a glyluronic serum and mandelic acid serum from MakeupArtists prefer and put this on about an hour after moisturizing. It took a few weeks but I saw reduction probably within first week. Not sure what caused it, maybe a primer or a too thick eye cream but it was just spreading on my left eye and this stopped it and now it's completely flat with just a tiny little residual left. Thank you so much for sharing this info.
And let me say I saw the most dramatic impact after a couple weeks of acid treatment and then one day exfoliated kind of by accident, was in a rush washing my face and either used a clairsonic or a exfoliating cloth across it and woke up the next day with them dramatically flatter. Whatever the case is your acid suggestion worked.
This was exactly the video I needed to see, SO informative in all the ways I needed to hear. Thank you! Also, your manner of explaining is clear and soothing; you have a kind voice and that's appreciated. Subscribed!
Oh thanks, Renee, for the review on Dr Gross' eye serum. I've been using his Retinol + Ferulic peel pads this last month, a couple of times a week, and have been circling around the purchase of the eye serum for my very genetic deeply frustrating undereye milia. The pads, btw, are a very nice treatment, and a good addition to any regiment that includes his daily aha/bha peel pads. I've been told by a few estheticians that skin that is predisposed genetically to milia should be careful about using undereye products that are too heavy because it can exacerbate clogged pores. If I use undereye concealers that are more waxy than creamy, and/or waterproof, I can count on seeing new milia shortly after. Same goes for any undereye creams that are especially heavy on the emollients. Using retinol products has reduced the appearance of the milia clusters somewhat, but there is a trip to the dermatologist to have them treated in my future.
Your skin does not look dehydrated. I definitely see some natural sebum production and I can tell you take an active approach to your own personal skin care, which is very important. Thanks for sharing what's worked for you so far. It's probably a bit overkill for me because I have combo oily but very sensitive skin and I suspect the acids and the exfoliating could be contributing to the irritation. I developed milia because of a creamy eye cream (ponds) that I picked out for my grandmother right around when I had hit puberty. But I hate when people ask about my skin because it's like what works for you may not work for me, so I'm glad you have the time& patience to share all that you've tried so far! Very candid and concise :)
Ive done it all! It hurts like hell getting them out too. I have to do them a few at a time. Make sure it’s after a shower so the dead skin is a little easier to pick off. I get a needle and open it up then squeeze them out. That’s the only way at home I have found. Started getting them abt 10 yrs ago and they drive me nuts.
I am milia prone but a simple solution works for me. Just apply cold pressed hexane free castor oil directly over milia - I would use a small drop. Couple of weeks and the milia dries and drops. One of those internet stories that is actually true.
@@gothamista how do they go away exactly ? Does the product help bring them up to the surface for easier extraction? Or does it just fade away? I bought the CVS retinol today and will try other products as I have one annoying milia under my eye.
Omg thank you so much. I decided to add glycolic acid to my daily skincare routine and within 2 weeks my Milia (between the eye and the nose bridge) got deflated then fell off! Hope others also find success in ridding these Milia.
Can u please tell me about ur routine ? I m getting stuck with this huge amount of products that people are using in their skin care routine. Can u please give me a resume about the ESSENTIAL products that i MUST use as a beginner. Thank u in advance
I am so glad to find this video!!! I have tried going to a dermatologist to remove clusters of milia from under my eyes, after two treatments with the electric needle, they are still there!! I will try the products you mentioned in the video but where should I start?
Thanks Renee! Milia is the devil. Glad you put out this video! I'm already doing some of the things you recommended and it has helped keep the milia at bay.
I actually used laser treatments for those around my eyes. But now I’m even happier to see your recommendations for other areas such as my chest. Thank you for sharing this amazing video!!
I’ve suffered from milia around the eyes for years. 😩 I have one right next to my tear duct. Do you recommend I just leave it alone or let a dermatologist extract it?
I’m trying the ordinary glycolic today is my first I had milia for a long time they started when I was 15 years I hope it help me I’ll come in about 2 weeks and see if there is a difference
After 2 weeks of using this product I have to say that it has help me. Yes I still have a lot but I have noticed that some of it is gone and other are getting small. From what I search it can take more than 3 months but I think is worth to try. Also, if you have sensitive skin start with little and maybe put in your face 10 minutes and wash it.
i swear that every time you upload you read my mind...or my complaints to my friends over messenger! i always cheer when you upload a video, thanks again renee! :)
OH SUNBURN!!! i watched this on a whim and you have answered so many questions i have. i have these new, hard bumps on my face that i dont know how i got because ive never had an issue with them before. well, i just moved back to california so im outside any chance i get (soaking up that sun. no sunscreen. like an idiot) and i got one of the worst sunburns of my life. well, the sun burn healed and now i have these hard bumps in its place. im so glad i watched this! now i know to buy a hat.
This is the most concise and informative video on this problem I have seen. I have one that has recurred on my cheek in the exact same spot for years. I know it is a milia and not something else because I’ve had it removed by an esthetician and it came right back. Also have one on the upper lip very deep beneath the skin that seems to be permanent as well. Very frustrating spot! Will try the targeted glycolic to see if that helps. Thanks!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I've read about milia and had a few ideas as to handle it, but this is so much more concise and straightforward! Thank you very much for your help and experience!
Renee thanks so much. You did such an awesome job. We all owe you money. We went to the doctor and in NO WAY hot the same level of detail, he gave us a harsh Rx and did not even call it mila. He seemed clueless. Thanks so much for all the detail. We plan to do a before and after.
Thank you for the videos . I have now been more into taking care of myself & you have helped me in my skincare journey . ❤️❤️❤️ love how in-depth you go in these videos . & how you recommend different affordable and high end items .
So happy to find this video 😆 have always had milia problem and did not know how to deal with it. Had to spend a lot of money to do laser treatments every now and then😣
I got Milia after using Coty Airspun Powder (Highly Fragranced!!) for a while. cold pressed coconut oil solve that issue for me overnight!! so, I guess YMMV🤷♀️
Honestly, I used to have excellent skin. I always got compliments. Then one day I bought the drunk elephant mini kit, and then got really into skin care, and spent quite a bit and now my face breaks out more than I have ever seen it :(
Could you recommend a good facial moisturiser for dry milia prone skin please? I get milia on my cheeks and clogged bumps all over :/ I struggle finding a good moisturiser that is hydrating but not clogging.
I had this for ages and then one day I finally got sick of it and got a bobby pin and picked it off😬 I know. It actually came off but there is a tiny bumb left like really small with no colour or anything and now I think I can see another one forming underneath my eye and I’m scared that I won’t be able to make it go away😣
I had some when I was 13, I took them out with tweezers they never came back, I’m 18 now and I had some around my eye, and I used tweezers to remove it kinda of hurts but it works fine.
Jessi Rodriguez always sanitized the tools you use in your face it could have been a huge bad effect it could cost swelling or infection of the whole face
@@hwangmiyeon1001 I agree about keeping things sanitary. I've removed quite a few milia on my face/eyes through the years, but I'm also educated in the medical field and am very mindful about proper wound care techniques. It's critical to do this correctly to avoid infection. Also, a brightly lit magnifying mirror is a must!
Hello Renee! Milia is the worst!!! Can u please tell me if you apply the acid treatments on the milia before or after your regular skin care routine? Much love, Thanks❤
Jennifer Lee acids should be in direct contact with the skin, so if you have an acid toner you should apply it directly after cleansing. Otherwise, if you have a normal acid product, the steps should be: cleansing - ph adjusting toner (optional) - acid - wait 15 minutes - go on with the rest of the skincare
I just wanted to say you look exceptionally radiant and glowy in this video Renee! Thanks for another great video, sounds like I need to give that eye cream a go
I have had bumps slightly under, and around the inner corner of my eyes ever since I can remember. These bumps appear to be more under the skin than pictures of milia I have seen on the internet. Does anybody else experience this? My mother and sister also have the same bumps. I have not been able to find out if they are actually milia or just a wierd genetic trait.
Kerri D. Yes, that is exactly what it looks like!!! I have had minor keratosis Pilaris or "chicken skin" on my arms all my life as well. Now I'm thinking it's also what is on my under eyes. Now if I could only get rid of it!
Me Too! My ones appeared after getting filler injections in my undereye area. I'm not sure that's possible but it never looked like this before the injections and they appeared right after and pretty much exactly where they put the fillers.
You've answered so many questions I had, thank you! Milia around the eyes are the only thing on my face I haven't been able to fix with skincare for years now :(
I’ve had milia clusters on my cheeks for as long as I can remember. I actually think I was 12 when I noticed my first one. I’ve tried so many things. Definitely worse in the summer! My dad has them as well, so it’s from genetics for me. Excited to watch this video.
Right on time! I just had some milia flare up recently. Thanks for this. Good thing I have that TO Glycolic Acid Toning Solution already on the way! I'm hoping it will also help clear my nose and chin of those endless micro whiteheads...
I had these!! It’s from smoking... which I stopped!! I only started because of peers / friends and college. But smoking is soo horrible for skin and hair!!
hongjoong also which exact sugar scrub is it? I’ve had Milia FOREVER and horrible eczema but whenever I went to the doctor they never new what milia was same with my dermatologist it just comes and goes :(
Hi Renee! would you mind please to let me know if any of these items can be used at the same time or definitely separate? and which one would u recommend the most especially around the eyes
i wasn't sure what i had under my eyes until i exfoliated with a dual action scrub facial mask, and looked under my eyes closely. i had started noticing a few days ago that i had bumps under my eyes after doing my makeup, but wasn't sure what the bumps were. after exfoliating, i realized that they were milia. i have been bad about washing my face every morning recently, but realizing that no doing this was causing milia to form, i decided to get back at it. i also started putting on SeaBreeze with cotton pad, its for sensitive skin, just a little pit, to help dry them out. hopefully it works.
Oh how I've been hoping you would do a video on this!! I have milia just under my eyes and have for years. It's SO deep, hopefully this tips will help!
Thank you for posting this video. I've been dealing with milia for years. Microdermabrasion used to help but my skin became to sensitive for home microdermabrasion kits. Learned from you how to use oils, it really helped with dryness of my skin. I look forward to trying acid toner and perhaps some retinol instead of scrubs.
Brilliant thorough presentation booming with information. I enjoy your voice and way of speaking. Very nice, thank you! I have a stubborn tiny one yet I must research as I avoid toxins and I’m not sure how to this clean and without drying out my very delicate thin skin. You’ve been helpful. 🙏🏻🌸

patrosfeta The Ordinary is it 2% or 7% glycolic acid?
I was using both of these products then stopped using the toner for a couple months and have had so much milia buildup!!! Definitely going to start using the toner again I didn’t realise how good it was
@@kayegill4977 hello, where do you get the glycolic acid and rose hips?
Can you provide a link to this product or which stores can it be purchased from?
@@howtheheliru The ordinary.. you can get both

suitable for teenage girl
I really hate milia, I have it like whole of my life. Thanks for the video
Love rosehip oil as my nighttime eye treatment. Exfoliating eye cream, gotta try that...
My gramma brewed pearl barley tea and used it as her toner her whole life. In college I had milia on my upper eye lid - she bossed me into leaving a tea-soaked cotton pad on the lid for several minutes every night. 3 weeks later the milia just fell off 🤯
R M S That’s so fascinating! Thank you for sharing! What a beautiful legacy of beauty tips. 🙂
I LOVE THIS!!! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Reiko, may I know what tea you’re using? Green, black or Chinese tea? Do they all work the same? Appreciate your reply and many thanks!
Definitely need a recipe would love to try it.
O hello thank you so much for your sharing. 7 times is pretty fast to get the results. May I know for how long do you leave the cotton pad on?
honestly some people are gonna hate me for this but just use a sewing needle CAREFULLY, i did it and they were gone instantly. It did leave a little scab but it was gone within a week
I want to do that too but I'm afraid it will grow more later in future.
Did you squeeze it after you poked it or no
It can cause to infection too
lil tatsu yes you should do to get everything out
Man, I didn't know what milia was until I watched this and realise I have some! Your videos are so informative, I love them! And you are so great to watch! Thanks a bunch xx

My friend is an esthetician and she said some moisturizers promote them. Don't know what ingredient in the moisturizer is the bad guy. 😐

Thanks Renee! Milia is the devil. Glad you put out this video! I'm already doing some of the things you recommended and it has helped keep the milia at bay.
yess i'm so incredibly happy you posted this!! i suffer from milia and this was so helpful xx
P50V dabbed on with a gauze pad works wonders with milia for me. Twice a day for a week or so usually gets rid of them for me.
I actually used laser treatments for those around my eyes. But now I’m even happier to see your recommendations for other areas such as my chest. Thank you for sharing this amazing video!!
may nguyen after the laser treatments, is your milia seed gone ??
I’ve suffered from milia around the eyes for years. 😩 I have one right next to my tear duct. Do you recommend I just leave it alone or let a dermatologist extract it?
I have an aesthetician. A couple of times I got one on the inside lower eyelid, my eye Dr. was able to extract it.
I’m trying the ordinary glycolic today is my first I had milia for a long time they started when I was 15 years I hope it help me I’ll come in about 2 weeks and see if there is a difference
Angie Ramirez will wait for your updates!
After 2 weeks of using this product I have to say that it has help me. Yes I still have a lot but I have noticed that some of it is gone and other are getting small. From what I search it can take more than 3 months but I think is worth to try. Also, if you have sensitive skin start with little and maybe put in your face 10 minutes and wash it.
Thank you for updating!
Angie Ramirez what brand of glycolic acid do you use ? Please reply
@@sx51 the brand is called the ordinary
Oh, really? I've been using Rosehip Oil already. Good to know that it helps!
i swear that every time you upload you read my mind...or my complaints to my friends over messenger! i always cheer when you upload a video, thanks again renee! :)
Yay!!!
OH SUNBURN!!! i watched this on a whim and you have answered so many questions i have. i have these new, hard bumps on my face that i dont know how i got because ive never had an issue with them before. well, i just moved back to california so im outside any chance i get (soaking up that sun. no sunscreen. like an idiot) and i got one of the worst sunburns of my life. well, the sun burn healed and now i have these hard bumps in its place. im so glad i watched this! now i know to buy a hat.
OMG! this is the best skin care channel on youtube I have found! And I love your voice for some reason.
This is the most concise and informative video on this problem I have seen. I have one that has recurred on my cheek in the exact same spot for years. I know it is a milia and not something else because I’ve had it removed by an esthetician and it came right back. Also have one on the upper lip very deep beneath the skin that seems to be permanent as well. Very frustrating spot! Will try the targeted glycolic to see if that helps. Thanks!
I tried this... 2 days it was totally gone, like a magic eraser, I am still in awe, thank you, thank you, thank you!
What items did you use ?
A good eye cream is Reversa 4% glycolic acid. 😍😍
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I've read about milia and had a few ideas as to handle it, but this is so much more concise and straightforward! Thank you very much for your help and experience!
Thank you so much for the great review and information about milia .. this is the best video I've ever seen describing how to get rid of it
Renee thanks so much. You did such an awesome job. We all owe you money. We went to the doctor and in NO WAY hot the same level of detail, he gave us a harsh Rx and did not even call it mila. He seemed clueless. Thanks so much for all the detail. We plan to do a before and after.
Thank you for the videos . I have now been more into taking care of myself & you have helped me in my skincare journey . ❤️❤️❤️ love how in-depth you go in these videos . & how you recommend different affordable and high end items .
Thank you so much. Reading this makes me so happy!!
So happy to find this video 😆 have always had milia problem and did not know how to deal with it. Had to spend a lot of money to do laser treatments every now and then😣
I got Milia after using Coty Airspun Powder (Highly Fragranced!!) for a while.
cold pressed coconut oil solve that issue for me overnight!! so, I guess YMMV🤷♀️
How did u remove that milia
Gothamista your skin looks so luminous and glowy! Beautiful ☺️
Wow that's amazing! This week I've noticed my horrible Milia and I needed this video so bad! Love you!
this is the best advice I've found.
Honestly, I used to have excellent skin. I always got compliments. Then one day I bought the drunk elephant mini kit, and then got really into skin care, and spent quite a bit and now my face breaks out more than I have ever seen it :(
Rula Martini same I was know for my clear skin now I break out a lot around my cheeks
Oh my gosh me too!
I always remove mine with a needle and tweezers without any problems. Glycerine helps to dry them out especially if they're around your eyes.
This video came at a perfect time!! I have always had an issue with milia and I'm excited to try your recommendations, love your channel!!
Could you recommend a good facial moisturiser for dry milia prone skin please? I get milia on my cheeks and clogged bumps all over :/ I struggle finding a good moisturiser that is hydrating but not clogging.
Help! Ive been fighting milia for ages. Lots of them around my eyes. & at the same time extremly dry skin.
The advice worked! I had a big milia for about 2 years. After using the Glycolic acid for a couple of weeks, it is deflated and almost gone.
do you just need the acid and a swab, do you need any of the other stuff she's talking about
Good to see you back Renee. You have been missed.
Thank you so much, means alot to me!
I had this for ages and then one day I finally got sick of it and got a bobby pin and picked it off😬 I know. It actually came off but there is a tiny bumb left like really small with no colour or anything and now I think I can see another one forming underneath my eye and I’m scared that I won’t be able to make it go away😣
I had some when I was 13, I took them out with tweezers they never came back, I’m 18 now and I had some around my eye, and I used tweezers to remove it kinda of hurts but it works fine.
Jessi Rodriguez always sanitized the tools you use in your face it could have been a huge bad effect it could cost swelling or infection of the whole face
@@hwangmiyeon1001 I agree about keeping things sanitary. I've removed quite a few milia on my face/eyes through the years, but I'm also educated in the medical field and am very mindful about proper wound care techniques. It's critical to do this correctly to avoid infection. Also, a brightly lit magnifying mirror is a must!
I need help! I have milia in my eye waterline, it almost went inside my eye. Can I use Glycolic acid on it?
Hello Renee! Milia is the worst!!! Can u please tell me if you apply the acid treatments on the milia before or after your regular skin care routine? Much love, Thanks❤
Jennifer Lee acids should be in direct contact with the skin, so if you have an acid toner you should apply it directly after cleansing. Otherwise, if you have a normal acid product, the steps should be: cleansing - ph adjusting toner (optional) - acid - wait 15 minutes - go on with the rest of the skincare
martying thank you!🤗
Yes, I go in with the acid soaked cotton bud right after cleansing
it works or no ?
I just wanted to say you look exceptionally radiant and glowy in this video Renee! Thanks for another great video, sounds like I need to give that eye cream a go
I have had bumps slightly under, and around the inner corner of my eyes ever since I can remember. These bumps appear to be more under the skin than pictures of milia I have seen on the internet. Does anybody else experience this? My mother and sister also have the same bumps. I have not been able to find out if they are actually milia or just a wierd genetic trait.
Yes! It almost looks like...I want to say chicken skin? Mine also looks slightly bruised underneath.
Kerri D. Yes, that is exactly what it looks like!!! I have had minor keratosis Pilaris or "chicken skin" on my arms all my life as well. Now I'm thinking it's also what is on my under eyes. Now if I could only get rid of it!
Yes i have the same problem!! I really want to know the correct term for it
same problem here! Don't really know what it is tho ://
Me Too! My ones appeared after getting filler injections in my undereye area. I'm not sure that's possible but it never looked like this before the injections and they appeared right after and pretty much exactly where they put the fillers.
OMG I JUST GOT THEM. This video came in just in time 😩
Madam plz tell me telugu. Plz
You've answered so many questions I had, thank you! Milia around the eyes are the only thing on my face I haven't been able to fix with skincare for years now :(
did her medication work sure ?
I’ve had milia clusters on my cheeks for as long as I can remember. I actually think I was 12 when I noticed my first one. I’ve tried so many things. Definitely worse in the summer! My dad has them as well, so it’s from genetics for me. Excited to watch this video.
Thank you for the tips! Perfect timing for me because I have 2 milias (under my eye left and on the corner of my mouth) that are driving me crazy! 🌸🙏🏼
You are the best ..I stopped following any TH-camr or blogger but you ..please keep up the amazing work..thank you
@Gothamista I’ve learned so much with you about skin care. Thank you 😊
I would like to get those eye creams. Do you have any updated links to get them? Having issues finding them. Ty!
Right on time! I just had some milia flare up recently. Thanks for this. Good thing I have that TO Glycolic Acid Toning Solution already on the way! I'm hoping it will also help clear my nose and chin of those endless micro whiteheads...
I know its been over a year, but did it up working for you?
Yeah I actually wanna know if it worked even tho it’s been a year lol
It's been two years now
How did it go for you
I had these!! It’s from smoking... which I stopped!! I only started because of peers / friends and college. But smoking is soo horrible for skin and hair!!
It really is!
I have loads of milia on my eyelids that’s been there for a really long time so I’m super scared about what I can put on it. What would you recommend?
you can use a facemask called sugar scrub and apply it every night till it comes off by itself
hongjoong does it ever come back after you use the mask?
hongjoong also which exact sugar scrub is it? I’ve had Milia FOREVER and horrible eczema but whenever I went to the doctor they never new what milia was same with my dermatologist it just comes and goes :(
@@resvsa5475 From which brand? The one from skinfood?
Hi Renee! would you mind please to let me know if any of these items can be used at the same time or definitely separate? and which one would u recommend the most especially around the eyes
I would LOVE a video on closed comedones and/or sebaceous filaments 😫 I tend to always suffer from the two
Yes, I would appreciate a video on sebaceous hyperplasia. I have so many on my face.
What are THESE
I’m glad to see this video from one of my faves! I’ve been looking up on Milia for a while and getting nowhere 😂😅
Thank you!!
Did anything help?
YASSSSSSSS THE QUEEN HAS SPOKEN BUT OMG U MAKING MY WALLET LOSE TOO MUCH WEIGHT BUT IT DONT MATTER
😂😘
Thank you so much for addressing this issue. Very frustrating when they pop up around the eyes. ❤️
Renee, thank you! Another skin-care slam dunk, home run, all around wonderful video. Thank you and keep them coming! We will be waiting.
💙💚💛❤️💜
i wasn't sure what i had under my eyes until i exfoliated with a dual action scrub facial mask, and looked under my eyes closely. i had started noticing a few days ago that i had bumps under my eyes after doing my makeup, but wasn't sure what the bumps were. after exfoliating, i realized that they were milia. i have been bad about washing my face every morning recently, but realizing that no doing this was causing milia to form, i decided to get back at it. i also started putting on SeaBreeze with cotton pad, its for sensitive skin, just a little pit, to help dry them out. hopefully it works.
Oh how I've been hoping you would do a video on this!! I have milia just under my eyes and have for years. It's SO deep, hopefully this tips will help!
Keep me posted because this made a big difference for me. The milia I had sitting around disappeared fast!
Thank you for posting this video. I've been dealing with milia for years. Microdermabrasion used to help but my skin became to sensitive for home microdermabrasion kits. Learned from you how to use oils, it really helped with dryness of my skin. I look forward to trying acid toner and perhaps some retinol instead of scrubs.
This video is a godsend, thank you!!!
Brilliant thorough presentation booming with information. I enjoy your voice and way of speaking. Very nice, thank you! I have a stubborn tiny one yet I must research as I avoid toxins and I’m not sure how to this clean and without drying out my very delicate thin skin. You’ve been helpful. 🙏🏻🌸
