Expert Tip for Azelaic Acid

"Azelaic acid is a skincare multitasker, perfect for tackling breakouts, redness, and uneven skin tone. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin yet powerful in refining texture and brightening dullness. Start by using it once a day, gradually increasing to twice daily if your skin tolerates it well. It pairs beautifully with hydrating ingredients like niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, but if using alongside retinol or exfoliating acids, introduce slowly to avoid irritation. For best results, always follow with SPF in the morning - consistency is key for a clearer, more even complexion!"
