Key Features and benefits
- Targets acne and breakouts: Azelaic Acid has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it effective at reducing acne-causing bacteria and calming breakouts.
- Fades hyperpigmentation: The serum helps to inhibit melanin production, which fades dark spots, sunspots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (acne scars).
- Reduces redness: It is particularly effective for soothing redness associated with acne and rosacea-prone skin.
- Repairs skin barrier: Contains Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Sodium Hyaluronate, which provide moisture and help repair the skin’s protective barrier.
- Gentle exfoliation: As it helps clear pores and reduce keratin buildup, it offers a mild exfoliating effect that refines skin texture.
- Fragrance-free: The formula is free of fragrances, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
How to use:
- Patch Test: This is a concentrated serum, so a patch test is recommended before full use, especially for those with sensitive skin.
- Cleanse and Tone: Apply the serum after cleansing and toning your face.
- Dispense and Apply: Take 1–2 drops of the serum using the dropper and gently pat it onto your face and neck. You can focus on specific problem areas or apply it all over.
- Allow Absorption: Let the serum absorb completely before moving on to your next skincare step.
- Moisturize: Follow up with a moisturizer to lock in the benefits.
- Use Sunscreen: Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning, as Azelaic Acid can increase sun sensitivity.
- Frequency: If you are new to acids, start by using it 2–3 times a week, ideally in your evening routine. As your skin builds tolerance, you can increase the frequency to daily use, either morning or night.
