- Spread gently, without rubbing – Apply a thin, even layer to affected areas without rubbing too hard.
- Avoid sensitive areas – Do not apply around the eyes, lips, or nostrils, as the skin there is more delicate.

- Reducing inflammation and redness
- Brightening dark spots and hyperpigmentation
Can this azelaic acid cream help with acne?
Yes, the combination of azelaic acid and niacinamide makes this cream effective for acne-prone skin. Azelaic acid targets acne-causing bacteria, while niacinamide helps reduce redness and inflammation, promoting clearer skin.
How should I apply this azelaic acid cream?
After cleansing your face, apply a thin layer of the cream to your face and neck (optional) in the morning and/or evening. Use sunscreen during the day for protection. This cream contains soothing ingredients like niacinamide and glycerin, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin. Azelaic acid may cause mild irritation when first used.
Will this azelaic acid cream help with dark spots or hyperpigmentation?
Yes, azelaic acid is known for its ability to lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. It works by inhibiting melanin production and promoting skin cell turnover, helping hyperpigmentation fade over time.
Can I use this azelaic acid cream with other skincare treatments or products?
Yes, this cream can be used with other skincare treatments. However, avoid using it at the same time as other strong exfoliating products (like AHA/BHA acids), as this may increase the risk of irritation.
Can this azelaic acid cream be used during the day?
Yes, this cream can be used during the day, but since azelaic acid may increase sun sensitivity, it’s recommended to follow up with applying a sunscreen. Sunscreen protects the skin from UV damage and helps prevent further pigmentation issues.
Are there any side effects or irritation associated with this azelaic acid cream?
The azelaic acid cream, containing 20% azelaic acid and 6% niacinamide, is generally well-tolerated. However, due to the high concentration of azelaic acid, it may cause mild irritation, redness, or dryness when first applied.

The azelaic acid cream is formulated to be non-comedogenic, meaning it does not clog pores, making it suitable for acne-prone skin.
Can this azelaic acid cream be used around the eyes?
It should not be applied around the sensitive eye area, as it may cause irritation. You can safely use it on the rest of your face.
Is this azelaic acid cream suitable for all skin types?
This cream is suitable for most skin types, including oily, combination, and acne-prone skin, thanks to its blend of soothing and non-comedogenic ingredients.
How often can I use this azelaic acid cream?
You can use the azelaic acid cream once or twice a day, depending on your skin’s needs and how it responds. If you’ve never used azelaic acid before, start with once a day and gradually increase usage.
