How Can I Get Rid of Milia?

Hi. I have small white bumps under my lower eyelashes (I think they are called Milia). Does anyone have any remedies for this? Thanks.

Hope you get this post. I had a milia appear on my forehead, never had one before in my life; I am 56 and female. I believe I got it from a microdermabrasion treatment. One day I decided to put a drop of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on the bump just to experiment; didn't think it would do anything. Within a couple of days it started to shrink and by 4 days it was GONE! My skin looks so smooth and amazing since I have been using the VCO on it; currently my favorite skin cream.

I agree coconut oil is the very best. I also tried neem oil for a crusty patch next to my right eye, I thought it was a wart so I continued to use the neem oil for only a couple of days and woke up the next morn. And this growth//wart was gone. Now I use neem oil on most problems.
