ConsFor some reason, when I apply too much, my skin feels a bit tingly and itchy. I couldn't find it locally, so I ordered it from overseas. While the product itself is affordable, the shipping was quite expensive. Delivery also took almost a month, haha!
TipAfter toner, I apply this cream and finish with an emulsion or moisturizer depending on my skin's condition. It effectively tackles deep dryness, and even when I don't have any blemishes, my skin texture becomes softer the next day!

Initially, The Ordinary was sold domestically, but when I learned they stopped importing it, I ordered it from overseas. It took about two weeks to arrive, and I've been using it since. (I'm also using Paula's Choice Azelaic Acid Booster, which I purchased directly from abroad) The conclusion is that azelaic acid is the answer for blemishes! I knew azelaic acid was good for brightening and blemishes, but I saw a much greater effect on improving blemishes than on brightening. The texture is a slightly thick cream, but it absorbs well. I apply it thinly and lightly after my moisturizer, and the next day I can definitely feel my complexion improving and the blemishes around my jaw area subsiding quickly! Unlike other AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) and BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acids), azelaic acid doesn't cause irritation, so even those with super sensitive skin can try it without worry, which is another advantage!
ConsWhen I first applied the azelaic acid, I felt some itching and tingling around my jaw area. But it felt like it was working hard on the blemishes, so I endured it, and gradually the sensation subsided.
TipIf you're concerned about applying it due to sensitive skin, try mixing it with your regular moisturizer! And as always, remember to control the amount you use! Don't be tempted to apply too much just because it works well.
