      Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️
      *What is the Gospel?*
      The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
      Romans 10:9
      9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
      JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!
      Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS

    I'm late to this video but I know precisely what causes mine. I get them on my lower lash line. I figured out it was eye cream, especially thicker types. Years ago, I read an article that advised the use of a BHA toner to eliminate milia. You just have to be consistent, every single day. I used a drop of the toner on a Q-tip to carefully clean the area. Now I use a toner once a day and carefully swipe under my eyes with a cotton pad. I haven't had a milia since. I usually use Soap & Glory's Glow Toner, it has beta hydroxy acids and is reasonably priced. I have just switched to a lactic acid toner and it seems to working just as well.

    I had one on the side of my eye for ages, it was driving me crazy. I tried to squeeze it and it never worked. Then, I learned about milia, but I couldn’t justify getting a professional extraction for a single tiny bump. I got an extractor, nervously poked the skin around it, pressed…and in 10 seconds, the milia of an entire year was gone. It was almost too quick, I could barely process what’d happened.

      How did you get rid of it

  • @lj.3589
    @lj.3589 Год назад +10

    Skin type: fair, thin, easily reddened, normal to dry. I've only had 3 - 4 milia. They went away after soaking my face under water (bathtub) once a day for 5 days to 2 weeks. After bathing I made sure I moisturized well. I got rid of my infant niece's milia by massaging her little nose gently with jojoba oil after first very gently wetting the area with room temp. water. I wet her nose to moisturize the skin; I gently dried the area; and then I immediately followed with massaging jojoba oil into it 1 to 2 times per day. I got rid of her minor cradle cap that way too. I would then gently brush the cradle cap area briefly with a soft baby's hair brush, starting on day 3 or so. We have very thin skin in our family though, so it may not take as long to clear up these skin problems on us as it does for those with thicker skin. For my milia (not my niece's) and the prevention of 80% - 90% of my zits, I've noticed that leaving sweat on my skin is a major culprit. The sodium in the sweat dries out my skin which leads to all kinds of problems including multi-pore zits. (This definitely causes my non-hormonal zits, my present theory is that it also seems to bring about the milia when conditions are right.) When my skin gets too dry from sweat/dry air/skipping a wash and isn't gently exfoliated every 3 days or so, skin problems ensue. To prevent this, in winter (ND/MN) I use a heavy, moisturizing cleanser 2x/day. Every second or third day or so I really clean off the residue from the heavy cleanser (and lotions/oils) with a gentle gel cleanser and make sure to exfoliate so that the cleanser's residue (that locks in moisture most days) doesn't build up and cause dead skin cells to block my pores. I'll use moderately rich moisturizers/lotions in winter, sometimes with hyaluronic acid, to lock in moisture as well. And I try to keep the humidity in my place at 40% minimum. I have to rewash/moisturize if I've been outside in dry, cold air. I've had luck with collagen masks as well. They aren't essential, but they feel great afterwards and really moisturize my skin. I can't emphasize enough to young ones in sports: get that sweat off your skin pronto. Gently, and regularly. Make sure to include your hairline and then moisturize. Ask for help finding the right cleanser and moisturizer if you're having trouble. I'd do far better at this if I were that age again than I did my first time around. Good luck all! (Some people's skin is easily affected by the food they eat as well. Read about ayurvedic medicine if you think yours might be. It helped me a lot, esp. in summer weather.)

Ive tried exfoliating and using a retinol eye cream and I think the eye cream kind of worked but I still have a couple that have poked through! I have a weird tip for anyone who finds a brand new milia, I put a pimple patch on one once because I thought it was a new pimple forming, when I took the patch off in the morning, I gave the area a light squeeze and a milia popped out!!

I discover that if you stick it gently with an acupuncture needle (disposable) the oxygen will touch the keratin and it will dry and fell by itself, but you have to be very careful to make a gently micro hole, if you don't, you'll get a scar, constantly gently exfoliate your face and use non oil based skin care.

    I had gotten a Milia on my upper waterline awhile ago and it was actually pretty painful because it would rub my cornea. I always take off make double cleanse etc with non comodogenic cleansers that are eye safe, so I was confused as to how I got one. But anyways I almost always have sterile 18 gauge needles lying around becasue my horse has allergies and I give her immunotherapy every month, so I just took one of the needles and poked right on top and it popped right out. All was well and it healed great, and then I developed my first ever stye in the same spot but by that point I figured out my mascara was expired so I got new stuff and got antibiotics from my ophthalmologist and now I'm all better. But just make sure yall get new mascara frequently!

    I tried an extraction at home and it hurt soooooo much 😭.
    I realized thick moisturizer under my eyes made it worse. I switched to an eye serum and eye cream and some went away over time.
    I finally went to a dermatologist and they numbed it and extracted most of them. I still have a few small ones, but I'm okay with that. Also, they prescribed Retin-A which is helping since it's an exfoliant. It takes time, but I'm okay with that, too.

      Do you find that using these around the eye causes any irritation - and is there anything you can reccommend to help prevent the irritation? I have a friend who gets millia who has asked for my reccomendations (she knows I'm skincare obsessed XD). I'm thinking about suggesting the Inkey List Retinol eyecream to start with, but I'm loathe to reccommend a chemical exfoliation unless I know it's not going to cause any damage. She does have pretty tolerant skin, in that it doesn't get irritated by fragrances etc, but she's not a skincare person, so hasn't done much of anything else for me to know what, if anything she might react to.

Works every time and anywhere on the skin. I'm not affraid or sensible around or in my eyes bc I've had contact lenses since I was 12 yo and got used to be able to touch the eyes and near the eyes without any problem. Ofc I touch my eyes (and face too ofc) with only clean hands and tools, and after milia removal I clean the skin thouroughly to avoid infection.
