Tret .05% + Azelaic Acid combo
I just want to share that the Tret + Azelaic acid combo is possibly the best combo my skin has ever received. I have had cystic acne since I was 12. I went through Doxycycline, Benzoyl, Tret (for active acne), Clyndamicin, and all the holistic avenues. I then did accutane at 18 for 2 months and had to stop because of the havoc it did to my body. However, the accutane did eliminate 99% of my cystic acne (i still get the occasional cyst atleast once to twice a year), but the topical bacterial acne I could never figure out. I am 26 now! For the last 8 years I have been trying everything to get this bacterial acne figured out and I finally found it. Just wanted to share this story because acne can be VERY hard to figure out. It took me nearly 14 years to finally achieve the skin I always yearned for. I’m using Tret for my acne scars and Azelaic for Rosacea + Bacterial Acne/Comedones. Tret never really did anything for my active cysts, but it is working wonders for the years and years of scars I have left over. Also wanted to share that things might not work now but can work later down the road like Tret has done for me! First pic was right before I started Accutane (8 yrs ago), 2nd is what my skin looked like on and off for about 8 years(i would have months of no break outs and then bam, break out like this photo), and 3rd photo is today after starting my new Tret+azeleic acid journey (i get my normal one hormonal pimple every month)! I started Tret Cream in September 2025 and recently went up to .05% in March 2026 and added Azaleic Acid in March 2026. It’s still early back into my Tret journey but I’m so happy with what it has done so far. These are the product I use: Morning: Cleanser: La Roche Posay Mela B Toner (kinda): Garnier Micellar Water +HA/Aloe Serum: BOJ Milk Serum with Good Molecules Hyaluronic Acid Azaleic acid Moisturizer: Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream SPF: Elta MD Clear 46+ Night: Cleanser: Bioderma Oil Face Wash & LPS Mela B Toner: Garnier Micellar Water + HA/Aloe Tretinoin Moisturizer: Dynasty Cream and LPS Cicaplast Gel (when needed) submitted by /u/mutedfrogs to r/tretinoin [link] [comments]

[anti-aging] Is there really anything beyond tretinoin + azelaic acid + vitamin C + SPF for anti-aging, or is everything else just chasing the last 5%?
I’ve been thinking about this lately and I’m curious what people here think. If you strip skincare down to the evidence-based essentials for skin aging, it seems like the core is pretty simple: Tretinoin, Azelaic acid, a good Vitamin C serum, moisturizer for barrier support, and daily Sun protection factor. Between collagen stimulation, pigment control, anti-inflammatory effects, and UV protection, that combo seems to cover most of the major mechanisms of skin aging. So it makes me wonder: how much does everything else actually add? Peptides, growth factors, luxury creams, lasers, microneedling, polynucleotides, etc. — are these genuinely meaningful additions, or are they mostly refining the last ~5–10% once the fundamentals are already in place? I’ve definitely noticed some “nice-to-have” effects (for example certain creams giving a temporary glow), but I’m not sure they meaningfully change long-term outcomes compared to the core routine. If someone starts late and already has laxity, deeper wrinkles, or significant sun damage, then things like lasers, RF microneedling, or other procedures probably make a lot more sense because you’re trying to reverse damage rather than just maintain skin quality. But if someone has been consistent for years with things like Tretinoin, Azelaic acid, Vitamin C, and daily Sun protection factor, it does make me wonder how much room there actually is left for treatments to move the needle in a meaningful way vs just refining the last few percent. Curious how others think about this submitted by /u/These-Ad4151 to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]

Is there really no benefit to combining azelaic acid with tretinoin?
I’ve been using Tretinoin 0.025% for about 6 weeks now and my skin has been tolerating it really well (basically no irritation), and my acne is already improving. Right now my main concern is moderate PIE (red marks), so I wanted to get a prescription for Azelaic acid 15% through Amazon. But the provider told me that azelaic acid and tretinoin “do the same thing” and shouldn’t be used together, and instead suggested benzoyl peroxide or a topical antibiotic. This confused me because I’ve heard that tretinoin + azelaic acid is actually a good combination, especially for redness and leftover marks. Is what they’re saying true, or should I try a different provider? Also, would 10% OTC azelaic acid even be worth it in the meantime? submitted by /u/ToughPair7664 to r/tretinoin [link] [comments]

[Acne] Week 8 of Azelaic acid and I feel like giving up 😩
Picture order: Week 8 Week 1 Week 8 Week 1 Week 8 How long does the purge with AzA go on for? My skin is so much worse than it was when I first started😩 Background of my skin journey * Had much worse acne when I was younger, always took the contraceptive pill to get rid of it. I now have a medical condition and can’t take it anymore. I stopped taking it over a year ago. * After coming off birth control my skin went crazy oily so I panic bought loads of products and used loads of different actives at once. * I learned from that, gave my skin 2 weeks off actives and then decided to pick AzA to stick with and see how it goes. Current routine AM * The Ordinary (TO) Glycolipid Cream Cleanser * TO Moisturising Factors + HA * Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++ PM * TO Squalane Cleanser * Facetheory Azelaic Acid 15% * TO Moisturising Factors + PhytoCeramides Notes * I wash my towels and bedding once per week * My skin is worse in the evenings * I have combination skin, it’s less oily when I use more moisturiser, hence the moisture rich routine. When I use products for oily skin it makes my skin way more oily. Should I carry on with the Azelaic Acid? Am I just purging still or is it just not working for me? submitted by /u/babbie-and-shchuky to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]

[Routine Help] Azelaic acid ruined my face?
I bought and started using Anua Azelaic Acid, Cocokind electrolyte water cream, and vanicream gentle cleanser on October 9th of 2025. By Oct 13th my acne had started. By November i was convinced it was the Azelaic acid making me purge, so i stopped using it and Dec/Jan now my acne is the worst it’s ever been. I occasionally use the Azelaic acid when my face is super red and inflamed but i stopped using it consistently. Ive never had acne until this moment, so its hard accepting the fact that it wont just go away. Everyone keeps telling me to get on Spirolactone but im kind of scared of anything hormonal.. I was thinking differin gel but I dont want to keep purging. I dont know what to do. I also started smoking weed again in December and some people think my flare ups are from that. Not sure if I believe that because i used to be a daily smoker and never had acne.. routine right now is just AM: Vanicream gentle cleanser Neutrogena hydroboost water gel PM: micellar water to take off makeup Vanicream gentle cleanser Neutrogena hydroboost water gel keeping the routine simple in hopes my face calms down submitted by /u/pookiepp to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]

Azelaic Acid: tell me everything!
The information I'm finding online is incomplete and inconsistent! I'm trying to find out as much as possible: favourite brands, time of application during the day, does it mix with tret, etc. I currently alternate 0.05 tret and Paula's Choice 2% BHA every other night. Other than that, it's only cleanser and moisturizer. Water and sunscreen in the morning. I'm hoping azelaic acid can help reduce some redness that's still happening, plus maybe issues outside the face (butt acne 😭). I'd like to hear what you think! submitted by /u/underbellyelly to r/30PlusSkinCare [link] [comments]

Tret 0.05 + Azelaic acid 15% routine
I am 32 years old with very dry and sensitive skin. I have been using tretinoin for a little over 5 years (to help with anti-aging purposes). I just recently started incorporating prescription 15% Azelaic acid into my routine a year ago. I wanted to mention a quick disclaimer that you do not need the exact products in my routine and I am sure there are much affordable alternatives that can help you achieve similar/better results but these are just what have worked for me personally and is tolerable to my skin. Here is my routine below: Am: rinse with only water no cleansers, pat skin with a paper towel then I go in with my serums in the order dieux deliverance > medik8 c tetra adv > medik8 liquid peptides > AB the rich cream > eucerin sensitive mineral spf 50 Pm: wash face with vanicream cleanser, pat skin with paper towel then I go in the order dieux deliverance > (wait 30 mins) then I apply my tret/azelaic acid on alternating nights (I do not use them both on the same day as it destroyed my skin barrier) > ill wait another 30 mins then lastly moisturize with AB the rich cream I’ve tried so many moisturizers to help combat the dry flaking skin that comes with using tret but sadly the only thing that has worked is AB the rich cream. It is ridiculously pricey but I have yet to find another product that doesn’t irritate me or is just as moisturizing. I used to use Vanicream and Cerave moisturizer in the past but they were no longer giving me the hydration my skin was needing. submitted by /u/igobysim to r/tretinoin [link] [comments]

Holy crap, Azelaic Acid?! Am I crazy or is this working?
Back in Summer '22, I got a small red bump on my right cheek. I called it the "Zit From Hell"... except it never went away and then every time I went into the sun it got worse. Cut to three years later now and I have some gnarly Type 2. It flares after 60-90 seconds of sunlight/heat, stress, hot water, you name it. It hates me lol But I'm 40 (in two weeks...) so I also DGAF about what other people think so I never bothered to deal with it. The only time it ever bothers me is when it flares up, and thats just because the skin itself feels uncomfortable. I don't have insurance and I live in Florida, USA (sunshine and oppression, wee!!), so all my "medical" money goes towards things like contacts/glasses, mental health, walk-in appts, etc. Not exactly a ton left over to see a Dermatologist. Anyway. I got into an ADHD hyperfix the other day and deep-dived this amazing subreddit. You are all so responsive and kind; I learned a ton and went to CVS/Amazon. Grabbed The Ordinary's Azelaic Acid and Cetaphil Foaming Face Wash (Redness Relief). I also have Clinique's Moisture Surge for the rest of my face, if that's important. I have used it three times now and... look, am I insane or is it already working?! My right cheek is my "bad side" and it feels like its far less red. I'm noticing that it seems dryer, though. I know you all mention a purging/reset process, so maybe that's what this is? Either way, I feel like its actually doing something and, more important than looks for me, my skin doesn't feel uncomfortable anymore. Thank you all, seriously. submitted by /u/Aggravating_Yam2501 to r/Rosacea [link] [comments]

What does Azelaic acid do for you? What brands do you recommend?
I keep seeing soooo many users here also using Azelaic acid and I'm curious if it's worth adding to my routine. I've been using tret about 2 months with good results but I still have some uneven spots from years of acne. I'm in Canada too if anyone can recommend easily available products here. I've heard The Ordinary brand contains silicones and some people react poorly to that. submitted by /u/perfectdrug659 to r/tretinoin [link] [comments]

I can’t remember who it was that posted about using Azelaic acid on their underarms, but THANK YOU!!!
You are a legend. A saviour. And someone who has changed my life FOREVER. I started using Azelaic acid on my underarms as a deodorant after seeing a post on here. I have struggled with excess sweating due to medication and feel like I begin to smell more quickly than the average person… regardless of how often I wash, or how much I scrubbadubdub my pits. The Azelaic acid has worked insanely well. Better than any natural deodorant or antiperspirants that I have tried. I kid you not, I put a pea-sized drop of The Ordinary 10% cream on and didn’t shower for 2 days just to test it, AND I DIDN’T SMELL AT ALL. Is this magic? Anyway… sharing this again for people who might have similar struggles! Love you all! submitted by /u/paranormalgoatlol to r/Skincare_Addiction [link] [comments]

6 weeks masseter Xeomin (+ azelaic acid & tret)
Left photos are from May 28th right before I left for my first masseter Xeomin injections (very similar to Botox). I have had TMJ issues most of my life - I grind and clench both night and day and have significantly worn down my molars. After talking to my dentist, we determined Xeomin would be a good option for me (this is who did mine). Right photos are from today. It has made SUCH an improvement for me. No more temple headaches, locking jaw, general tension around my face, and I swear I sleep better, too. My face has gotten slimmer and longer since those muscles have relaxed. Soon after the injections, I started 20% azelaic acid in the evenings, and then .025% tretinoin twice a week in the evening. It’s perhaps too soon to tell how the tret is affecting things, but I can definitely say the azelaic acid has been working really well for me. Lots of redness reduction and better texture overall. Overall, super happy with my progress! submitted by /u/FlappyFaceDeluxe to r/30PlusSkinCare [link] [comments]

Azelaic acid gave me the clearest skin of my life and that wasn't even what I was using it for
A few months ago I started noticing some slight redness on my cheeks. I've always had a very even, olive skintone and I've never struggled with redness, so I was pretty taken aback. I figured this was skin changes happening as I'm entering my mid 30s. I did some research (on here!) and saw a lot of recommendations for azelaic acid, so I decided to give it a whirl. Paula's Choice Azelaic Acid Boost (with salicylic acid) didn't make much of a difference. I switched to Naturium's azelaic acid formula with niacimide and vitamin c. And you guys... This stuff is amazing! My redness is 80% gone, but much more impressively I haven't had a single break out since I started a month ago. I didn't have a LOT of acne but I usually have 1-2 pimples in circulation on my face at any given time, worst right before my period. I also get post inflammatory hyperpigmentation so then that acne would leave dark marks for weeks. I always had some mix of acne and a couple of fading marks. Naturium's azelaic acid has cured all of it. No acne. No bumps. It even cleared the dark spots! This stuff is incredible. I havent had skin this consistently clear ever in my life. The only other product I am using consistently is Illiyoon moisturizer. I now layer the Naturium and Paula's Choice cream on my cheeks for extra calming effect on the redness, and I put the Paula's choice on areas I used to get acne as a just in case, since is has the salicylic acid. All of the additional ingredients in these products I already used separately. I have a vit c serum and niacimide, and I used a salicylic acid wash. But I've never seen a result like this. I hope this is helpful to someone else out there! But be warned if you have dark hair, if you get it in the edges of your hairline every night you will start to bleach it. Mine is looking a little orangey; I need to get a better headband. submitted by /u/Seaworthiness565 to r/30PlusSkinCare [link] [comments]

AITA for telling my girlfriend to stop ordering / buying skincare products that aren't allowed in the country? (Specifically sunscreen and Azelaic acid)
I am NOT OOP. OOP is u/Throwaway47892921 Originally posted to r/TwoHotTakes AITA for telling my girlfriend to stop ordering / buying skincare products that aren't allowed in the country? (Specifically sunscreen and Azelaic acid) Trigger Warnings: financial abuse/theft, identity fraud, addiction Original Post - December 22, 2023 My (27F) girlfriend is really into skincare as a hobby. Some of her (28F) favourite products aren't sold here, so she orders them from overseas. She is having problems now and I think she needs to let it go and find some different products. One of the products she liked was a sunscreen from a brand called Style Vana. She used to order it from Asia but now it doesn't meet the standards for sale or use here so now when she orders the sunscreen it gets confiscated at the border. It started when she ordered several products including the sunscreen. The package was stopped by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) and when it was released and sent to my girlfriend the rest of the stuff was there but the sunscreen had been removed and there was a note from the CBSA that it had been confiscated. My girlfriend was upset and placed another order. I don't know why she thought it would be any different after what happened the first time but the exact same thing happened and the sunscreen was confiscated again. Then my girlfriend thought her second package was stopped because her name was automatically "red flagged" after the first incident. She asked a friend to order it for her under her friend's name and with her friend's credit card. The same thing happened and that package also got stopped and the sunscreen confiscated. The other issue my girlfriend is having is with something called Azelaic acid. It is banned from over the counter sales by the government except in small quantities. The product she likes has too much in it and my girlfriend can't get a prescription. The last time she went on a shopping trip to the US with friends she bought some of the product she can't get here because the Azelaic acid is too much.

She says nothing can compare and she doesn't want to use anything else. I hate to say that skincare is causing tension but my girlfriend says I should be helping her get the stuff she wants instead of telling her to give up. I'm serious. She thinks I'm not being supportive enough. AITA? Update - January 6, 2024 My first post is in my history. I can't post it here because links are not allowed. I [27F] thought she [28F] had let it go after and stopped trying to order the sunscreen but that wasn't the case. I got a notice from the CBSA that the sunscreen I ordered from Style Vana was confiscated. I got the notice under my name at my workplace (instead of at home). My credit card had a charge on it for the sunscreen order. Normally I get text alerts when my credit card is used but that text message was missing and it looks like the order was placed in the middle of the night. She told me she doesn't know anything about the order and tried telling me it was probably identity theft. Her deception and refusal to admit she used my credit card, deleted the text alert and then used my work address (she previously complained about our home address being "red flagged" by customs) for the order was too much. I could deal with her constantly ordering the sunscreen but when she used my card without my permission and then said it was identity theft it was enough. I do love her but I moved out because she still tells me and everyone else that I've been the victim of identity theft. I had to cancel my credit card too. I thought if she at least admitted it we could move forward but she won't. No matter what I said she repeated that it was identity theft. (Also regarding the Azelaic acid: It is banned from over the counter sales if it is over 14%. Under that you can buy it in Canada but anything over that requires a prescription. She went to three different dermatologists who said she doesn't have any kind of condition to warrant a prescription. She also tried an online pharmacy but didn't meet their requirements either. She doesn't have a skin condition that needs it but since she is so into skincare she feels she needs it as part of her routine. She refuses to use ones that are under 14% because "I like the higher concentration ones better".) RELEVANT COMMENTS gemmygem86: Hope you made sure she can’t use your cards anymore OOP: Yes. I cancelled my credit card before I moved out and she doesn't have access to my new one. TigerShark_524: Report her to CBSA and for the identity theft as well - no telling what else she can do. OOP: I have let the CBSA know I didn't order that sunscreen and I have disputed the charge with the credit card company as well. THIS IS A REPOST SUB – I AM NOT OOP. submitted by /u/Choice_Evidence1983 to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

AITA for telling my girlfriend to stop ordering / buying skincare products that aren't allowed in the country? (Specifically sunscreen and Azelaic acid)
My (27F) girlfriend is really into skincare as a hobby. Some of her (28F) favourite products aren't sold here, so she orders them from overseas. She is having problems now and I think she needs to let it go and find some different products. One of the products she liked was a sunscreen from a brand called Style Vana. She used to order it from Asia but now it doesn't meet the standards for sale or use here so now when she orders the sunscreen it gets confiscated at the border. It started when she ordered several products including the sunscreen. The package was stopped by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) and when it was released and sent to my girlfriend the rest of the stuff was there but the sunscreen had been removed and there was a note from the CBSA that it had been confiscated. My girlfriend was upset and placed another order. I don't know why she thought it would be any different after what happened the first time but the exact same thing happened and the sunscreen was confiscated again. Then my girlfriend thought her second package was stopped because her name was automatically "red flagged" after the first incident. She asked a friend to order it for her under her friend's name and with her friend's credit card. The same thing happened and that package also got stopped and the sunscreen confiscated. The other issue my girlfriend is having is with something called Azelaic acid. It is banned from over the counter sales by the government except in small quantities. The product she likes has too much in it and my girlfriend can't get a prescription. The last time she went on a shopping trip to the US with friends she bought some of the product she can't get here because the Azelaic acid is too much. When she crossed the border back into the country the skincare stuff was confiscated by the border guards because it's not allowed here. She wasn't arrested or anything like that but CBSA is doing a review of what happened. My girlfriend is upset about all this. I've told her she needs to find other products instead. Yesterday she told me she is going to ask another, different friend to order the sunscreen for her. I don't see what this will accomplish because it's clear that the sunscreen will be confiscated.

[Before&After] Results after 1 month of azelaic acid 15%
Got AA 15% OTC in Italy during a roadtrip, paid around 19€. 30F, combo skin. Routine: AM CosRX Refresh AHA BHA vitamin C daily toner AA 15% gel (Finacea) Cerave salicylic acid smoothing cream Etude House sunprise mild watery light SPF50+ PA+++ PM Tosowoong enzyme powder wash CosRX Refresh AHA BHA vitamin C daily toner AA 15% gel (Finacea) Cerave salicylic acid smoothing cream Unclear if the main difference here is the tone of the lighting lol, although I see a control in pimples and a more homogeneous skin texture. I'll rely on the incoming tretinoin to control my oils. What are your thoughts? https://preview.redd.it/j1uruix1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a1bfde15d2b344b1ce8016de753cb2736fd2218 https://preview.redd.it/cgj9qjx1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=122a73475dcb7c54c9e8ed63b4862c4bee444191 https://preview.redd.it/5rraakx1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30142bf5730381638fdfe9ffc0e0ee8a6a8aeb1c https://preview.redd.it/gcdo8lx1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=701462efcbfb4dee3e76558b17efed16fc7f65f3 https://preview.redd.it/o5415xx1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d867eb070202ee47c91dc818ec8b69749c5f652 https://preview.redd.it/s9gt3lx1d5v91.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=870b0acd7b2d09997a0a87f55ef20748d9b51e16 submitted by /u/AnaSF1992 to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]

[acne] My derm prescribed me Azelaic Acid, but it would’ve costed me $200. I finally gave in and made my first purchase from The Ordinary instead! Wish me luck.

[misc] Derm wrote me a prescription for $300 cream for Rosacea - went back 6 months later and she said my skin looks great! I got Azelaic Acid (the same thing she was prescribing) from The Ordinary online after lurking here on this sub for a while and saved 90%+!
Thanks to all those who post their tips and tricks here!! submitted by /u/jenjulia to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]
