Used Azelaic Acid? Rate It:
Cons:
broke me out in small bumps after the fourth week, some of them have started to head.
left me with more red marks than before I used the cream.
Pros:
Smooth skin the morning - after.
Cons:
Stinging after application is absolutely unbearable - especially with a sensitive skin
Pros:
2 weeks in so far...
No pros that I can think of. Hasn't had an effect on my acne whatsoever.
Cons:
Leaves my skin feeling very greasy.
Constantly trying to wash the grease off my face, which makes my acne feel worse.
Using it twice a day (as per doctor's recommendation), at night is ok but during the day it's difficult to wear makeup over the top. Makes my skin very sticky and has increased my morning routine by about 45 minutes (while waiting for it to 'dry' as much as possible).
First few days it stung a little when applying, now every time I apply it makes my ski
Pros:
Didn't experience any of the painful itching or stinging other people have.
Cons:
Painful cystic breakouts, worse than before I started!
Pros:
it didnt dry out my face like most other topicals do and it also is invisible when you put it on.
Cons:
it didnt work what-so-ever. it made my face more oily, especially at night. i'd wake up the next day with such oily skin. it doesnt get rid of blackheads which was what i told me dermatologist i wanted to do in the first place and i still broke out.
Pros:
Drys out skin
Cons:
Drys out skin- causes breakouts
