Which Azelaic Acid performs best?!

Sora·@Viivihtips I do my best to give my skin breaks but since I have a lot of different and somewhat severe health issues it’s really hard to narrow it down to see if it’s even a product or just my body 😂

Queen·Anua is very good and gentle, I don't know about the other one but I recommend Anua

Easy win for Anua imo! I don’t particularly like microbeads in general cause they just add more mess and work to rub in which can irritate sensitive skin i.e. my skin. If that doesn’t bother you, I still find the formula to be a bit oily/sticky/less elegant compared to Anua which I think would work for more skin types. In the process of testing the Skin1004 azelaic acid though.

Thank you for the honest opinion! The Purito one does seems a bit more oily for sure but haven’t tested it yet. I really want to try the one from Skin1004, i’ve also heard it’s niacinamide free which is a relief because most of my products already has niacinamide and it causes me overload of products 🥲

@Viivihtips I’m about to start testing the Skin1004 one too. I’ll put my thoughts here when I do!

Easily anua much better! Adding an irritant (tea tree) to azelaic acid makes it much more of a niche product. The anua is so much more flexible that way!!!

Good to know! My skin definitely does not need another irritation factor right now 😅 Probably will use it in the future when the skin is in a better place!

I haven’t tried Puritos but I have all 3 of the ANUA serums and I do like this green one a lot. My skin tends to get red a lot (probably from lupus but idk for sure) so the green really helps calm it down

Ooh that’s so good to know! But please stay safe and do some research to know what’s making your skin red, is important to know the reason behind it to treat it the best way you can 🫶🏼🫶🏼
