This Acne Treatment Single-Handedly Cleared My Milia Bumps

I have struggled with milia my whole life—I’m pretty sure it's from the dirty and sweaty headbands I would wear for softball games and never washed, but we won’t talk about that. In case you’re not familiar with milia, it’s a benign skin condition that results in small white bumps. It’s often caused by dead skin, sebum, and flakes becoming trapped in the pores, but can also stem from using comodogenic products that clog the pores.
On top of milia, I also struggled with picking at my acne instead of treating it properly and leaving it alone (even though I know better!) because I was never able to find a way to get rid of the stubborn acne deposits under my skin, especially on my forehead. On day, I was scurrying through Target as one does, when I came across a bundle of the La Roche-Posay Cleanser, Toner, and Effacla Set. I had seen the Effaclar treatments on TikTok before, but was skeptical to give it a try since it was $30 for the one 0.7 fl oz tube. But because the bundle was $30, I decided to pick it up and give it a try.
