Q+A Azelaic Acid Balancing Serum, Containing Pore Minimising Zinc PCA and Antioxidants for Fresher and Smoother Skin, 30ml

Let me set the scene. I woke up one morning to find a massive zit smack in the middle of my cheek. You know the type, bright red, impossible to ignore, and practically waving at everyone I walked past. As a man with a face that produces enough oil to power a small lamp, I needed help fast. Enter this little bottle of brilliance.I applied the serum, not expecting much. Azelaic Acid? Zinc PCA? Super Grains Extracts? Sounded more like a trendy salad than a skincare saviour, but I was desperate. Within days, this stuff had dried out the offending spot, shrivelling it up and sending it packing. My skin looked calmer, smoother, and dare I say it, less shiny.This serum is a dream for us oily-faced folk. It is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and does not leave a greasy residue, which is a blessing when your skin already glistens like you have been running a marathon. It even made my pores look smaller, like they had finally learned some manners.The fact that it is cruelty free, vegan, and packed with natural ingredients is the cherry on top. I feel good about slathering it on my face and even better when I see the results.So, if you are dealing with breakouts or just want to keep your oily skin in check, give this a try. This zit busting miracle has become my go-to, and I am not letting it out of my bathroom cabinet anytime soon.

Bought this after buying one from the Inkey list, that seemed only half full of that. This brand is much better quality than the Inkey List! And can see it's a full bottle and slightly cheaper too.The texture of this product is nice and creamy and thin enough to quickly absorb into the skin. Can definitely feel it working, as gives a slight tingle and my skin is looking more even and brighter but need to wait a little longer to see if minimises my blemishes

I am a late 40s woman with sensitive skin. I bought this to tackle rosacea/ redness - particularly on my cheeks. This was my experience:Day 1. Do not do as I did and apply three pumps immediately after a shower. It will STING! A tingle is expected but one pump is enough and should be used on a completely dry face.Week 1. Applied nightly. Skin purged. Very "angry" redness.Week 2. Applied twice a day. Very dry lips. This is not normal for me.Week 3. Applied twice a day. Purging has lessoned. Back to pre-treatment levels of redness/blotchiness.Week 4. Applied twice a day. Tentatively beginning to see some improvement.Week 5. Beginning to get to end of bottle and as more as difficult to "pump" a specific amount, I used too much and experienced very red/inflamed skin. Took a break for a couple of days.Week 6. Redness much diminished and skin much clearer/brighter.I only experienced "piling" when I put too much product on. I liked the consistency and it was fine under makeup.I bought this product primarily to treat rosacea on my cheeks. I was not expecting it to also deal with closed comedones on my forehead. This has been a bonus.I have now "graduated" to a product with a higher concentration but I'm glad I started out with this one to get my skin used to the active ingredient.

Leaves a plastic like texture on your skin like it dries tight, then when you put your foundation or creams on it produces a residue that ruins your make up. Don't like the silky feel of it either, it seems very plastic and off. Not sure about this one.

It definitely works, I've been using this for maybe a month now and it's definitely work a ton of wonders, cleared a LOT of my pores and I proved my skin texture, this in the morning and sudocrem in the evening has been my go to! When you start using it it can make your skin feel like it's shrinking but that for me went away after about a week, it can start pilling sometimes, for me around my jaw but overall Definitely recommend!!

I’ve been using this product for about 2 weeks and my skin is the best it’s been for a long time. I’d been having a lot of breakouts, and since using this, I’ve had none.Great product.

Doesn’t irritate my skin or leave it feeling dry or dehydrated. Good at fading redness

Had to return as the description or pictures don’t disclose there’s aloe Vera in the product which I’m allergic to
