Several creators say it smooths texture and brightens skin, with some noting fading of dark spots 1 2. Sponsored creators also say it suits sensitive and all skin types and helps blemishes 3 4. Creators warn the suspension can feel gritty, which one says is normal, and that it can pill, which one links to too much product or poor layering 5 6 7. One creator with rosacea switched to another azelaic serum after peeling, while a sponsored creator reports fewer closed comedones 7 8.
