Ordinary Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% cream

The Ordinary Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% is a multifunctional brightening cream designed to visibly even skin tone, reduce blemishes, and smooth uneven texture with regular use. Azelaic acid, a naturally occurring acid found in grains, works at a 10% concentration — high enough to meaningfully target post-blemish dark marks, dullness, and rough patches without requiring a prescription. The cream-gel texture blends into skin without leaving a greasy residue, making it comfortable to wear both morning and evening underneath moisturiser or SPF. Because azelaic acid is well-tolerated by sensitive skin types, this formula is particularly suitable for those with rosacea-prone skin who find stronger actives like retinol or high-strength acids too irritating. Over consistent daily use, many people notice a more uniform complexion and a reduction in the redness associated with blemishes and rosacea flare-ups. The Ordinary's commitment to transparent, clinically sound formulations means you know exactly what you are applying and at what concentration. Pair with The Ordinary's Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 to support the skin barrier while this formula does its brightening work.
