I’m on my third bottle
Want a simple, hydrating, scentless, and affordable azelaic acid serum? Look no further! Azelaic acid is well tolerated by many and for me I’ve noticed great improvements regarding redness. There was a short period of time when I cut this out of my routine, and that’s when I noticed how much it had been doing to reduce redness in my skin. This serum also contains aloe extract, panthenol, and niacinamide so it feels very soothing. Keep in mind however that there are a few different plant extracts in this as well, so if you are super extra sensitive you might react poorly to them. But personally I’ve never found them to be an issue.

I was so excited to try a product with what seemed like no comedogenic ingredients, but I suspect all the extracts broke me out pretty badly. I’m talking deep, painful cysts. I think I saw a nice effect on skin brightness, but that’s the only upside unfortunately. This also left a chalky white residue at times.

Lightweight, Hydrating, and Multipurpose Oil, not like other oils.
I started with using this on my face (i have oily skin) and I didn't break out! It makes my face feel soft and gives my face a nice glow that I like but it doesn't last too long or feel heavy like other oils. I also use it on my lips and sometimes I pour some in a separate container and use it for my hair. It's a great staple because it can be used for so many things, I'd advice you to definitely read up on it and the benefits! It's not like other oils and is safe for oily skin! But definitely still do a patch test.
