Raised white bumps - what is this???

I've noticed really small clusters of raised white bumps come up on my forearms over the last 10 days.
Not itchy
White
Not fluid filled so not milia
In quite defined little clusters

Am wondering if anyone knows what they might be?

Maybe Google keratosis pilaris? My DD had the same kind of bumps and that was the diagnosis

Molluscum?

Yes, keratosis pilaris, totally harmless, just cosmetically annoying. Sali Hughes swears by Palmers Anti-Aging lotion (has to be that one, not the normal one) to get rid of it.

The Korean exfoliating cloths (also called Korean Italy towels) are great for getting rid of keratosis pilaris.

Thanks everyone! I've got some Korean cloths - just not used them for a while - will have a go
