Oddly both myself and my soap dodging 9 year old seem to have succumbed to these lately.

For Madame I presume making sure she washes her face regularly and properly including a good scrub with a flannel and some actual soap/face wash (rather than unicorn breathe) will help?

What will help me? I have a regular but basic regime. I cut out the acids a few months back as they did nothing tangible but do I need to consider introducing and if so what?

43, dehydrated but oily skin with visible pores. I use either French pharmacy brands or most lately Superdrug pure range (love that serum, made a huge difference). Skin is ok and I'm doing well lines wise but a bit dull maybe.

Unfortunately nothing will help remove milia you will need to go to a beauty salon that specialises in removal. I was like your DD and to be honest my skin care was appealing as a teen which is what led to me having so much, I had them all over my cheeks!

They didn’t really bother me too much but when I got married last year I decided I wanted rid as didn’t Want them showing in photos especially if I was getting my make up done professionally I had to have 3 1 hour sessions to remove and since then I have stepped up my skin care routine and now only have a few on each side which I barely notice

Appalling that was supposed to say!

I jab mine with a needle, wait a few days until they dry out then pick them off! Sounds gross but works for me! X

Sorry about the x, must've been in texting mode!

Buster I enjoyed it x

I did actually do that with one the other day. Skin is red though so don't know if I'll scar a tiny bit.

Try your local college. L3 beauty course requires removal of these. Obviously not open until September.
