This stuff has saved my skin
I was suffering from bad hormonal acne on my chin. I went to a dermatologist and she put me on antibiotics for three months and prescribed very agressive creams. I tried it for three months but my acne got worse. I still had the Azelaic Acid Suspension laying around and decided to give it a go, in o...

Received oxidized serum
This was my first time ordering and sadly I received an already oxidized serum which is supposed to be unoppened, most probably it's a batch that is expired as the website states unoppened products have 3 years shelf life. I will seek to return this product and hope there won't be much hassle in t...

Not what it used to be
This used to be my #1 product in my skin care routine. I used to swear by it. I noticed the bottle changed last time i purchased it but the serum seems to have changed as well. It used to be odorless and now it has a strong fishy smell. I pushed passed the smell and used it anyway but it hasnt had any effect on my skin. It's definitely not the same product. What a shame.
No I wouldn't buy this product again
It smells like garlic and I don't feel refreshed after using or feel like it's doing anything for my pigmentation
Wonderful but ...
I absolutely love this stuff. It works to remove my redness almost immediately and leaves my skin very soft. My only complaint is the bottle is very small for the piece and it doesn't come ever half way full. I was actually super annoyed by how little product was in this already very small bottle.
Not for me
The product felt pretty oily/sticky on my skin. After about a week I noticed small bumps along my jawline. My makeup would appear blotchy after a few hours, which it didn't do if i wasn't wearing this product. I didn't notice any improvement in the brightness of my skin either.
worked great for my dark spots
noticeable difference in my dark spots.

Will this help clear up perimenopause acne?
- Asked by DJScott
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there, as none of our products are considered medical treatments for perimenopausal acne, we'd suggest speaking with your physician or dermatologists for persistent issues. However, Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% can help target the look of blemishes! We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can I use this on my legs for dark spots?
- Asked by Kai
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there. Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA has not been tested for use on the body. We'd recommend exploring Niacinamide 5% Face and Body Emulsion. We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can i use azelaic acid suspension10% cream in the same routine as the glycolic acid 7% exfoliating and brightening daily toner?
- Asked by Tisha
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there, thanks for reaching out. We do not recommend using Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% in the same regimen as other direct acids. You could apply Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% in the morning, and Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner in the evening, or, alternate your evening regimens (ex. Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% Monday night, Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner Tuesday night). We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can the Alpha Arbutin 2% + Hyaluronic Acid be used with the saccharomyces ferment 30% milky toner? If so, which product do you apply first?
- Asked by Nik
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there. Yes, all 3 can be used together. We'd recommend: Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner > Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 > Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA. We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Is this a moisturizer? Or can i use it instead of a moisturizer? Its not really advertized as a hydrating product
- Asked by C
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there, Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% is a suspension cream. If you feel like you skin needs additional moisture/hydration, you can follow it up with one of our moisturizers, like Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA.Was this answer helpful to you
