Good for the right skin needs :)
It is important that we consumers check the ingredient list before purchase and are informed about what a product can actually do for our skin (sometimes despite the manufacturer's claims). In this case, the manufacturer is clear when it comes to the product's main ingredient. Geek and Gorgeous are excellent with transparency. As far as I could find, this AZ derivative found here corresponds to about 5% actual AZ. Not bad. There are AZ products that market exactly 5% AZ. We just have to adjust our expectations when we are informed. The product is perfect for morning use due to its light consistency. It absorbs quickly, it doesn't peel off like other AZ products (especially cream formulations), and therefore works well under makeup. It doesn't irritate the skin and is good for maintaining mild results, in my opinion. Since AZ is an ingredient that provides the best-documented results with 2 daily uses at 15% concentration for acne and 20% concentration for rosacea (according to the literature), I would recommend combining it with a product that contains the right concentration for your skin issue in the evening. My teenage daughter (prone to acne) loves this product in the morning and uses a 15% AZ cream in the evening.Translated from norwegian

Mixed feelings!
I'm not quite sure how I feel about the product. Sometimes it feels like it balances and soothes my rosacea skin, other times it feels like the product doesn't affect anything at all. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, so I decided to order a second bottle when the first one runs out and continue testing!55 viewsto leave a comment - 6 months
Does this work together with?
Hi! I get pretty big pimples once a month that leave large ugly discolorations on my skin that stay there for about half a year. I've been using vitamin C for a while, and it's okay, but I would really like to try this one instead. I'm wondering if this works with my routine. In the morning I use - the ordinary Glycolic acid 7% toning solution - niacinamide 10% + zinc (same brand) - varying moisturizer And in the evening - glycolic acid again - Geek & Gorgeous A-Game 5 0.05% Retinal Serum - varying moisturizer 1-2 times a week I use Ordinary's blood mask AHA 30% + BHA 2% PEELING SOLUTION. 0-1 time a week I use a relatively strong Retinol mask. Does this product fit into my daily routine for both morning and evening? Thanks for the answer 💖Translated from swedish

Noticed no difference
I wanted to use this for the properties of azelaic acid. However, I don’t think I’ve seen any effect despite 15 weeks of use. I won’t be buying it again and will instead choose common clouds “cloud milk” which visibly reduces redness after just a couple of weeks of use and is gentle enough for my skin, which is prone to perioral dermatitis. I would also wish for a longer shelf life than 6 months. It’s hard to use up the product if you want to use other serums in your routine on certain days.Translated from swedish

I wish I loved this product…
Azelaic acid is a really nice ingredient for my skin, but it's hard to formulate products with - I don't think this did anything for my skin at all.Translated from danish
