What the community says
Silicone-based 10% azelaic acid suspension famous for fading stubborn post-acne marks and calming rosacea redness but notorious for its heavy texture and pilling issues.
What people love
- Fades post-acne marks and redness after consistent 2-3 month use
- Pregnancy-safe and less irritating than many exfoliants
- Works well for type 2 rosacea and general rosacea calming
Watch out for
- Silicone-heavy formula pills under makeup and most moisturizers
- Can cause irritation, breakouts, and worsen skin barrier if overused or on sensitive skin
- Thick and difficult to spread, sometimes stings on compromised or dry skin
