The Ordinary Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% – 30 ml

Product Overview: 

The Ordinary Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% is a multi-tasking, lightweight cream-gel formula that contains 10% azelaic acid, a naturally occurring acid with a wide range of benefits for the skin. Azelaic acid is known for its ability to target skin concerns such as hyperpigmentation, acne, rosacea, and uneven skin tone. This product helps to brighten the complexion, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and promote smoother, more even skin texture. It also has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a great option for those with acne-prone or sensitive skin. The formula is non-comedogenic and suitable for daily use.

Benefits:

1. Brightens Skin Tone: Azelaic acid helps to reduce hyperpigmentation, including dark spots and post-acne marks, providing a more even and radiant complexion.
2. Targets Acne and Breakouts: The formula’s antibacterial properties help to reduce the presence of acne-causing bacteria, making it effective for preventing and treating breakouts.
3. Reduces Redness and Inflammation: Known for its anti-inflammatory effects, azelaic acid can help soothe irritation and redness, making it particularly beneficial for individuals with rosacea or sensitive skin.
4. Improves Skin Texture: Regular use can help smooth rough skin and refine texture, giving the skin a more polished appearance.
5. Non-Comedogenic: The lightweight, non-greasy formula won’t clog pores, making it safe for acne-prone skin.
6. Gentle and Tolerable: Unlike stronger acids, azelaic acid is typically well-tolerated by most skin types, including sensitive skin.
7. Supports Collagen Production: It helps stimulate collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity over time.

How to Use:

1. Cleanse the Skin: Start by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.
2. Apply a Small Amount: Squeeze a small amount of The Ordinary Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% onto your fingertips.
3. Gently Massage into Skin: Apply the product to your face, massaging it in evenly. Focus on areas of uneven pigmentation, acne, or redness.
4. Allow to Absorb: Give the product time to absorb into the skin before applying any other products, such as serums or moisturizers.
5. Use Once or Twice a Day: For best results, use in the morning and evening. If you have sensitive skin, start by using it every other day and gradually increase the frequency.
6. Follow with Moisturizer: Follow up with your usual moisturizer to lock in hydration and prevent dryness.

Tip: If you’re new to azelaic acid, start by applying it every other day to help your skin adjust. Always use sunscreen in the morning, as active ingredients like azelaic acid can make the skin more sensitive to the sun.
