Have white bump under or around your eyes? These are called milia, they are tiny cysts formed by clogged oil glands. These milia are caused by heavy moisturizers, heavy eyecream, oily makeup remover or under eye concealer. Prolonged exposure to the sun, can make your skin more likely to form milia, because sun-damaged skin thickens over time, which can make it more difficult for the skin to shed dead skin cells.

If you are prone to getting milia around your eyes, try gentlly exfoliation around the affected area a couple times a week to help cell regeneration, also switch to a lighter moisturizer such as eye gel or eye serum.

Milia may removed by skin specialist with a sterile lancet and a comedone extractor, do not remove them yourself, you may end up with a scar.
