If you struggle with breakouts, uneven tone, or post-inflammatory pigmentation,
La Roche-Posay’s Azelaic Acid 10% might just become your new skincare essential.
Hi I’m Emmalee founder of Theskinbay.co.uk…
For me, it's one of those products that absolutely transformed my, keeping congestion at bay and helping to fade stubborn marks and calm the inflammation associated with the spots.
I use Azelaic Acid 10% twice daily, usually after cleansing and toning. Its lightweight texture makes it perfect for layering in both morning and evening routines.
I apply a small amount across my entire face, focusing on areas prone to congestion or pigmentation less is more !!
There's sometimes a gentle tingle a sign that the active is working to refine and resurface.
When that happens, I follow it with a few drops of SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Serum, my go to calming treatment. The botanical blend instantly soothes any sensitivity, balances redness, and restores hydration, leaving the skin feeling comfortable again.
Consistency is key with Azelaic Acid. Over time, I've noticed fewer breakouts, smoother texture, and a much more even complexion. It's brilliant for keeping pores clear while brightening dull or uneven patches caused by previous blemishes or sun exposure.
Azelaic acid has anti-bacterial properties, meaning it can break up the blockages in your pores that lead to breakouts. It is also an anti-inflammatory, meaning it takes the heat out of angry spots, reduces the swelling and flattens the size, this power house ingredient save on pregnant and breastfeeding women also blocks the enzyme tyrosinase which causes excess melanin production in the skin and shows up as dark brown or red discolouration.
While SPF should already be an integral part of yoit everyday skincare regime always seal everything in with Cliniccare Dermo Corrective SPF 50 an essential step to protect from UV damage and prevent pigmentation from returning.
SPF is non-negotiable when using any active ingredient, especially when you're targeting discolouration.
Azelaic Acid 10% has become my reliable multitasker gentle enough for daily use, yet effective enough to keep my skin consistently clear, calm and radiant.
Pippa my 11 year old daughter now takes my advice and no longer suffers from blackheads and uneven congested skin.
