I wish I'd found this sooner
I have combination hormonal acne-prone skin and I'm a licensed esthi. While I was in esthi school my barrier was suffering a bit, I was trying to re-introduce retinoids, and then unexpectedly in school we had to do 2 exfoliating treatments in a row including a chemical peel.... my skin reacted badly with a few cysts. I needed to give my barrier time to heal and then reintroduce a gentler active to help, and I chose to use azelaic acid. I started seeing results in as little as a week! It calmed my inflammation and prevented new breakouts. It's been a few months since that big breakout and now my skin has stayed calm thanks to regular use of azelaic, and I've been able to successfully reintroduce my retinoid too. And I've had no issues with the texture of this product. Love it!

Love love love!
Love this stuff! Goes on smooth and helps control oiliness. No issues at all with pilling, as others have said. (maybe using too much?) I’m on my 4th or so tube of this. Lasts a good amount of time. Highly recommend.

Great For Rosacea
I have both rosacea & acne. I have a prescribed cream I use twice daily. I use this along with that cream. Both of those combined help my rosacea & acne to the point that I no longer see any significant issues. I highly recommend this if you deal with redness!

Great for pregnancy acne!
The only thing that has helped control my pregnancy acne!!!! Is a tad drying so make sure to use a moisturizer on top!

Loved this product
I ordered this product because I have very textured and red skin because of my rosacea. I've tried many things to get my skin nice and smoother and less red, and nothing has worked. This helped so much with the redness on my face, and 20 minutes after putting it on, my skin felt so much smoother. I definitely recommend it!

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.

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
