It’s A Cult Classic For A Reason
I keep repurchasing after many years because it actually does what it say it will do on the box, with visibly noticeable differences to your skin. My skin after use looks smooth, even and minimises spots coming up or helps them heal if they are already there. To this day I still believe this is the best cream The Ordinary does. You will definitely not regret this is in your skincare routine.

Good for post acne marks
Helps Brighten skin and acne marks. Also helps smooth out texture on forehead and chin. Feels good on skin and doesn’t leave a greasy feel after hours of applying the product.. Amazing product for the cheap price. Also very gentle and not strong and irritating, so for those with sensitive skin, this would be great for you.

Too much dimethicone
I bought this as an alternative to Paula’s Choice azelaic acid. While the active ingredient list is similar, and I do the Ordinary product is effective, I find this one has far too much silicone / dimethicone. The texture is really unpleasant as a result, and it pills under other products (including moisturiser at night). Maybe it’s picky but it’ll stick with the more expensive product in future in this case

Works well, start with the tiniest amount!
I've been using this on and off since August of 2023 to help with what I suspect is really mild rosacea and skin texture and it definitely helps with both of those. When I use it consistently every night or every other night I do see visible improvement with redness after a few weeks. It was mildly irritating when I first started using it but my skin got used to it quickly, I would suggest using it one night a week and then building up to using it every night or every other night. I use it in the PM after washing my face and you really have to make sure you use a teeny tiny amount by itself or with one other product otherwise it pills like mad. I will spot-treat my T-zone and any spots/pimples with the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, wait for it to dry down completely, and then apply the Azelaic Acid in veeery small amounts (like less than pea-sized for the whole face) to the areas that need it first in a thin layer. It's quite a thick formula but it spreads nicely and feels nice on the skin. I let that settle in and then apply moisturizer overtop. Overall pretty good product, I like having it in my regimen and I will be buying another once this current one runs out!

Amazing cream!
This works if used regularly! I've noticed a lot of difference on my skin, it's brighter and smoother. This Azelaic acid quite helps reduce my acne scars and dark spots. I use it every morning followed by SPF50. Very reasonably priced too. I would recommend it!
