Re: Best skincare products for milia!!

When I get milia, I usually just try to be extra vigilant with the salicylic acid and glycolic acid products to try to get them to go away on their own. So I've used the Paula's Choice 2% BHA and the Drunk Elephant TLC serum and both seem to have helped. I would say I've gotten way less milia especially since I've introduced the Drunk Elephant. If the milia don't go away on their own, it's possible you might need to have them removed, but I've not had to go that far myself, at least yet. Here's a link I return to when I'm dealing with milia:

Thank you so much for your advice. I will definitely look into both of those products and check out that website!!

You may find this a bit harsh for your skin. I had millia...

You may find this a bit harsh for your skin. I had millia patches on my skin for years and I could not get rid of them. My aunt recommended apple cider vinegar as a toner at night only and it worked. My face literally smelled like a giant stinky foot but it has never returned. I only applied it lightly on affected areas. Do not apply near eyes. Putting vinegar on the face throws off ph and messes with skin barrier so proceed with caution. I was in my 20s and didnt think about it so be wary. I had no damage though. Wash it off in the morning of course.

Milia typically resolves itself in a few weeks. Try switching to a light weight but hydrating moisturizer.
