I have really oily skin and everyone seems to have an obsession for this milk of magnesia. I went into holland and Barrett and asked if they sold any and the woman looked at me asif I'd asked to buy some kind of illegal drug which really frightened me and led to me hurrying out the shop and straight home to hide away 🙈 Can you buy it in the uk?? If so where? I read online it had been taken off shelves but this was some years ago, any ideas?

Probably because milk of magnesia is used for relieving constipation...it's also way too alkaline for human skin, so I don't recommend it anyway.

I don't know much about UK stores but go to like your local drugstore or grocery store that sells pharmaceuticals and it should be there with the laxatives

You can buy it on boots' online site. Apparently they have taken it off most store shelves in the uk but I might be wrong.

People are using milk of magnesia as a way of absorbing oiliness. it did help... I didn't see any shininess nor oiliness when used. I did however notice that a few uses my own skin pH balance was thrown off! I stopped using it pronto.
