It probably a pimple or a zit. not a sty stys are on the eye and mostly on the eyelid or liower part of your eye!

It's not a pimple or zit though because I've tried popping it and it has a layer of skin over it sorry this is really gross haha.

Use warm water to cleanse it couple times a day, or use an anti bacterial cream.

Omg I get those all the time I hate them! I feel you girl. wash your eye lids with baby shampoo everynight and in the morning. and use a realy warm wash cloth and hold it on your eye for like 5 minutes a few times a day. hope this helped :) btw you can't pop them so I don't know what these people are talking about haha :)

Its definitely not a stye.. Like joe joe said, those are on the lids and/or waterline. I get them all the time. Not sure what it is, but just try some warm compresses and a gentle cleanser until you see a doc!

It's a milium, and the best way to remove it is just to wait. It's a type of small cyst filled with keratin. If you hate it more than a small scab, you can take a small needle and gently pick it out.

Yes I think that is milia. You can go to the doctor and get it removed. All they do is poke a small needle into it and comes out. I've heard its very painless. You can also remove it yourself like Megan W. said, if your confident enough.
