I’ve seen the good effect of this product. Perfect for oily skin like me! Also, I only apply this at night cause it could be very drying which isn’t good for the skin.

0 difference after 3 months of consistent use
Used every night as directed for 3+ months and truly no difference at all. So bummed.

This product contains chlorphenesin, a preservative that is also a known irritant which is banned in many countries.

Surprisingly pretty effective with my redness
I have severe redness all over my face and Im very paranoid about what I put on my face. I love the velvet after feeling I get with this product. I also use it only at night given the other reviews. The only complaint I have is that it is only sold in this small size.

Hormonal/pregnancy acne
Hormonal acne has kicked my butt during pregnancy, and almost nothing helped at until this (even other brands/types of azalaic acid). This didn't cure the issue entirely but it is one of the only things that visibly helped and made a noticable difference for me in an issue that was really impacting my confidence! Recommend buying multiple at a time if you like it because it can run out quickly.

Hard to Use
I cant speak to how well this product works for hyperpigmentation because it pills so horribly you literally cannot use any other products with it. And forget about wearing foundation over it! As someone who is 37 yo and struggling with hormonal acne, my other products are a non negotiable, so I rarely use this except occasionally on the weekends when I dont wear makeup. And when I do use it, it seems like I get an increase of blackheads a day later. Im glad this wasnt expensive because it mainly sits on my vanity taking up space lol. If you have a similar sitch as me, I highly recommend the acne kit from Tula; it also has azaleic acid in it, and has done wonders for my acne AND fading my acne scars.

My skin texture and breakouts got worse
This was supposed to be a rosacea friendly acne management product. It smells awful. It pills up badly if you don't give it 3-4 minutes to absorb and I've had more breakouts after 6 weeks of use.

best product EVER
This product has genuinely changed my skin for the better. Ive been using this for about 2 1/2 months and my skin has become so smooth. before I started using this product I had a big problem with old acne scars and bumpy texture but this product has gotten rid of all texture and faded many of my scars. I use this product only at night, and i ONLY use a moisturizer before using this product, ive never experienced any burning or pilling with this product either🤷🏽♀️ some cons about this product tho its very small and while a little product goes a long way theres only half the product in the packaging. the smell isnt very strong and I kinda like it, will definitely be repurchasing this product.

Stops acne in its tracks!
I have some hormonal acne under my chin and I had read online about how to treat different types of acne and came across Azelaic Acid. I was previously using Salicylic Acid and it wasnt really helping for the acne I had so I was hesitant for awhile but finally decided to purchase this from a brand I trust, Ordinary Brand, and the results have happened rather instantly. It says AM/PM but I skip AM and mainly do it PM. I really like this product and the results show well

Unfortunately, it didn't work for me
Unfortunately, this made my skin break out. I suffer from rosacea, and this only made it worse.

50/50 Product
I have bought this product three times now. I have pros and cons about this product. I do feel like it is the cheapest for what it is. But every time I use it, I feel a tight tingling on my face. I also feel like the tube is always a little low on product when I get it. But overall I love the way it makes my face feel/look.
