What moisturizer's wouldn't give me Milia? I've tried one for dry skin and I think it gave me milia.

If your skin isn't dry you don't need moisturizer

Is your skin dry? If so where? and did you get the milia all over or just under the eye area? This information may help with a recommendation.

Alien is right though, if your skin is oily, you don't need to put moisturizer over your oily areas.

Avoid eye areas or use only serums. You can always add something richer to the dry areas but serum only near the eyes.

My skin is pretty dry. I used the moisturizer all over my face, and the milia appeared pretty much all over my skin.

Your cream could be containing something to which you are allergic (such as "cones") or is clogging your skin. You may want to consider a serum as suggested above, or a moisturizer that is non-comedogenic (sorry I can't spell), or one with salicylic acid which cleans out the pores. One serum I am using right now that doesn't clog my skin is Isomers One 3000 for Face (I use a lot of Isomers). It is in a sodium hyaluronic base, and does have some copper and peptides in it.

You may want to work on removing the milia BEFORE you risk another cream.

I suffer from blocked pores and have found that the best thing for my skin is to ditch the creams and just use a couple of drops of a good oil such as Jojoba, Emu, Pomegranate, Argan, etc.

I've also found that eating lots of dairy products seems to exacerbate the problem.

What's does exacerbate mean?

Anymore suggestions?

It means to make the problem worse. Very Happy
