Our Azelaic Acid Serum is expertly formulated with a powerful blend of active ingredients designed to give you clearer, healthier skin. Azelaic acid is the star of this serum, known for its ability to help fade pigmentation and post-acne marks, control sebum production, reduce redness, and combat inflammation and irritation. It effectively targets acne and breakouts while helping to fade acne marks and hyperpigmentation, resulting in a more even and radiant complexion.

To further enhance the serum's benefits, we've also included panthenol (vitamin B5), which provides soothing and moisturizing effects, calming irritated skin and promoting healing. Cogon grass extract and hyaluronic acid deliver long-lasting hydration, ensuring your skin stays plump and well-moisturized throughout the day. Maltodextrin helps balance the skin's microbiome, supporting a healthy skin barrier, while allantoin promotes healing and helps reduce skin sensitivity.

This serum is particularly beneficial for those with rosacea, as it helps manage the condition without exacerbating existing inflammation. With regular use, you’ll notice a reduction in breakouts and a significant improvement in the tone and texture of your skin. Our Azelaic Acid Serum is a comprehensive solution for anyone looking to achieve a clearer, smoother, and healthier complexion.

Available in: 30ml

To use azelaic acid serum effectively, start by cleansing your face to remove dirt and oil. Apply a small amount of serum evenly across your skin, focusing on areas with acne, rosacea, or hyperpigmentation, while avoiding the eye area. Allow the serum to absorb for a couple of minutes before applying moisturizer to hydrate and protect your skin. We recommend our Créme B3-B5-E with 4% niacinamide, for synergistic benefits.

In the morning, finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen to shield your skin from UV rays.

Begin with once-daily application in the evening, and if well-tolerated, you may increase to twice daily for optimal results. Remember, consistency is crucial for seeing improvements in your skin's condition.

Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate (PAD)
PAD is a water-soluble derivative of azelaic acid, offering enhanced skin compatibility and solubility. This ingredient offers similar benefits such as reducing acne and lightening skin pigmentation but with increased skin compatibility. It improves skin clarity and texture, making your skin feel soft and smooth.

Panthenol (Provitamin B5)
Also known as Provitamin B5, panthenol acts as a moisturizer, soothing and healing the skin. It enhances skin barrier function, reduces redness, and hydrates the skin, leaving it soft and plump.

Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract
Derived from a species of grass native to many parts of Asia, Australia, and Africa, this extract is rich in potassium and dimethyl sulfopropionate (DMSP), which act in synergy to help cells to maintain their osmotic equilibrium.

The extract has also been found to increase the concentration of NMFs (Natural Moisturizing Factors) in the skin. NMFs are components that keep the skin's outer layer protected and hydrated, making this extract an excellent ingredient for enhancing the skin's barrier function. A strong skin barrier is crucial for preventing water loss and protecting the skin from environmental stressors and irritants. Clinical studies have shown that formulations containing this extract can significantly improve skin moisture levels, even 24 hours after application.

In addition to its hydrating benefits, Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract is also valued for its soothing properties. It can help calm irritation and redness, making it suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types. Its inclusion in skincare formulations aims to deliver a burst of hydration, promote a healthy skin barrier, and soothe the skin, contributing to a more radiant and youthful complexion.

Maltodextrin
Derived from natural starches through partial hydrolysis, this polysaccharide serves not only as a humectant, attracting moisture to the skin, but is also a prebiotic that may help support the health of the skin's microbiome. Prebiotics are known to feed beneficial bacteria, promoting a balanced skin ecosystem. In addition to its moisturizing and potential prebiotic activities, maltodextrin can also improve the skin's texture and appearance. Its film-forming properties help smooth the skin, making it an excellent ingredient in products aimed at reducing fine lines and improving the skin's overall feel.

Allantoin
Recognised for its skin-soothing and healing properties, allantoin promotes cell proliferation and wound healing. It is effective in soothing irritated skin, promoting skin smoothness, and facilitating natural exfoliation.
