AZID 15% Azelaic Acid Treatment

I first tried this serum two years ago while I was pregnant and struggling with acne. As we all know, retinoids are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so I was searching for a safe and effective alternative — and this was it! The serum is lightweight, almost odourless (at least to me), absorbs quickly into the skin, and leaves no sticky residue. It helped fade my post-acne marks quite fast, especially the fresh ones. My acne also improved significantly: my skin became less oily, more balanced, and gained a healthy glow. The 15% azelaic acid gives a gentle peeling effect that really makes a difference. Since then, I’ve repurchased it regularly and always enjoy using it. My only downsides are the size and the price. The 30–50ml formats are a bit too small for daily use, and I’d love to see a 100ml version. At €35 for 30ml or €56 for 50ml, I do find it a little overpriced — though I must say, the packaging is excellent. Over the past few years, I’ve seen the brand experiment with different packaging, and now the serum comes in a glass bottle with a pump. The product is well-protected, and the packaging is easy to recycle.

Die Konsistenz des Serums ist sehr angenehm auf der Haut, zieht schnell ein und mattiert. Leider muss ich sagen, dass ich nach sechsmonatiger, täglicher Anwendung (morgens vor SPF) keine wirkliche Veränderung der Pickelmale und meiner Haut feststellen kann.
