I’ve been using this for 8 months now and it has reached HG status. I do not get cystic acne but little horrible bumps all over my face. I’ve tried a couple of Azelaic acid products in the past...

It didn't work any miracles or anything but I do feel like it definitely has helped my skin and I really like how easy it is to rub in and how quickly it absorbs. However, I will not be...

This is the only cream that helps to clear my face from pimples or rashes . Calms the skin within 2-3 days, a bit drying so use some moisturizer on top.
