With skin being our largest organ, it provides a detailed & insightful map into the goings-on within our minds, bodies & emotions.
Are you worried about small bumps on your face? You may be facing a condition called Milia. These are small cysts that form when dead skin flakes get trapped in a sweat pore or hair follicle under the skin.
There can be several reasons one can develop Milia, it can be due to sun damage, or can be a trauma like rash. Dr Mahesh Pillai, Ayurvedic Doctor & advisor to our Neeta Naturals beauty lab says, “Skin reflects the state of the internal environment of our body & our constant effort is to bring our life into balance, to attain optimum heath & a radiant body & mind.”
How to treat Milia at home? It’s a very common problem & can be easitly resolved in the comfort of your own home. Here are some natural tips that can help!
- Stop using any chemical creams that might have fragrances or other synthetic ingredients in them.
- Clean the affected area with a mild soap like our all-natural Neem Beauty Bar.
- After cleansing, you can try to open the ports & remove irritants by steaming your face. Pat your face dry & rinse with lukewarm water after steaming.
- Gently scrub the affected area with a gentle mask. Our Neem Glow Mask is the perfect for not only masking, but for exfoliating too! Gently scrubbing will gradually get rid of the trapped dead skin & will also help remove the bumps.
The great news? With the above routine, you will likely see improvements within a few weeks! As always, you can consult your doctor or dermatologist with any additional questions.
