Milia, or “white bumps,” are small, hard cysts often found around the eyes, cheeks, or nose. While harmless, they can be stubborn. The good news: “You don’t need expensive treatments or harsh chemicals to deal with them.”
**1. Castor Oil** – Balances skin oil and helps dissolve milia. Apply a thin layer overnight, rinse in the morning.
**2. Raw Honey** – Softens skin and clears pores. Apply for 15–20 minutes, rinse, repeat 3–4 times weekly.
**3. Lemon & Sugar Scrub** – Exfoliates and removes dead skin cells. Gently scrub for a minute once or twice a week.
**4. Steamed Cucumber** – Steam opens pores, cucumber soothes and hydrates. Apply mashed cucumber for 15 minutes after steaming.
**5. Green Tea Compress** – Antioxidants reduce inflammation. Apply cooled tea bag for 10–15 minutes daily.
**6. Potato Juice** – Enzymes help shrink milia. Dab juice on bumps for 15–20 minutes, then rinse.
**7. Papaya Mask** – Enzymes exfoliate and break down keratin. Apply mashed papaya for 10–15 minutes, 2–3 times a week.
**8. Sea Salt & Aloe Vera** – Draws out impurities and hydrates. Leave for 15 minutes before rinsing.
Avoid squeezing, stay consistent, and keep skin clean and hydrated for best results.
