Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring acid derived from grains. This ingredient is effective in treating acne, rosacea, and other skin conditions.
It has been shown to reduce the growth of acne-causing bacteria and helps reduce inflammation. On top of that, it helps reduce the production of sebum and unclog pores.
Azelaic Acid also has antioxidant properties. Antioxidants protect our skin cells from free-radical damage.
One of the main benefits of azelaic acid is that it is gentle and well-tolerated by most people.
Fun fact: The lab-created form of azelaic acid is typically used within cosmetic products for its shelf-stability.

It literally pills with every product I've tried, it's impossible to use. It has a very gummy texture that never gets absorbed into the skin, it only stays on top like a silicon-y film that will ruin any other product you combine it with, and also avoiding the formula to penetrate and actually do some work into your skin. So despite it's relatively high concentration of Azelaic Acid, it takes way Show more
