FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

Is 20% azelaic acid safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, although 20% is a high concentration, the inclusion of soothing ingredients like aloe vera, vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid helps minimise irritation. It’s generally tolerated by many sensitive skin types, but we strongly recommend patch testing before full use, especially if you’re new to azelaic acid.
Can I use this cream with other active ingredients like retinol or vitamin C?
To minimise the risk of irritation, it’s best to avoid using azelaic acid with retinol or strong exfoliants in the same routine. However, azelaic acid can be used with vitamin C, especially if layered properly—vitamin C in the morning, azelaic acid at night. For beginners or sensitive skin, alternate usage on different days.
Is this product suitable for all skin types?
Yes, it’s suitable for most skin types—including oily and acne-prone skin. However, those with very dry or highly sensitive skin should introduce the cream gradually and monitor for any signs of irritation.
Will this cream cause dryness or irritation?
Some mild dryness or irritation can occur when first using azelaic acid. Using a gentle moisturiser and starting with less frequent application can help minimise these effects.
Can I use this cream if I have eczema or sensitive skin conditions?
The cream contains soothing ingredients like aloe vera and vitamin E to help calm irritation, but if you have eczema or other sensitive skin conditions, it’s best to patch test first or consult your dermatologist. While this formula contains calming ingredients like aloe vera and vitamin E, those with eczema or other sensitive skin conditions should patch test and consult a dermatologist—especially during active flare-ups.
Will this cream make my skin more sensitive to the sun?
Yes, azelaic acid may increase sun sensitivity. Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning while using this product.
What is the texture of your Azelaic Acid 20% Cream?
It has a lightweight, milky texture that absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or sticky residue, making it suitable for layering under other products.
How do I know if 20% azelaic acid is the right strength for me?
A 20% concentration of azelaic acid is considered a high-strength formulation, ideal for targeting moderate to persistent concerns like acne, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture. It’s suitable for most skin types but should be introduced gradually, especially if you have sensitive or reactive skin. Because of its strength, a little goes a long way—apply a thin, even layer to affected areas once daily to start, and increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow with moisturiser and SPF in the morning.
Is it safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Azelaic acid is generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but always consult your healthcare provider before using any active ingredient during this time.
Can I apply makeup over this cream?
Yes, you can layer makeup over the cream once it has fully absorbed. Make sure to follow your usual SPF and primer steps if using it in the morning.
