I've noticed that I have milia underneath my eye just recently. I really don't want to spend a lot of money on this since it's not a major problem, but it'd be nice to tame it a little.
Any suggestions would be great ;)

I don't think you can exfoliate under your eyes?

You should not ever exfoliate in your eye area!

Well, other than not exfoliating, what creams or masks will help?

You should never physically exfoliate under your eyes, but there are creams that contain alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) and beta hydroxy acids (BHA, also known as salicylic acid) which are both chemical exfoliants. Pond's makes a cream called Rejuveness that contains lactic acid, a type of AHA. Alpha Hydrox has a whole line of AHA products. And Paula's Choice makes products with both AHA's and BHA's.
Chemical exfoliants work by speeding up the skin's process of shedding dead skin cells that can otherwise cause poor skin texture and clog pores. However, it might make your skin more sensitive to sunlight so be sure to use a gentle sunscreen under your eyes.

Thank you very much, Kelly, for giving me a detailed response! Because I knew that milia is caused by trapped dead skin cells, and my first thought was exfoliating. But I didn't know that there was a chemical version. This will help a lot, and now I'll know which products contain these. :D
