Ingredient PROFILE

Why your skin loves it

Azelaic Acid helps calm the look of blemishes and visible redness while supporting smoother, more even-looking skin. It’s especially loved by sensitive and blemish-prone skin types because it delivers clarifying benefits without the harshness often associated with traditional acne treatments.

WHAT IT DOES

  • Helps visibly improve the look of blemish-prone skin
  • Visibly calms redness and irritation
  • Helps brighten post-breakout marks and uneven tone
  • Supports smoother-looking skin texture
  • Helps balance blemish-prone skin without over-drying

WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE

 Sunday Riley thoughtfully selects Azelaic Acid for its skin compatibility and ability to deliver clarifying and brightening benefits while remaining comfortable on skin. Known for being both effective and gentle, Azelaic Acid is especially well suited for blemish-prone, redness-prone, and sensitive skin types.

WHY IT MATTERS

Blemish-prone skin is often also sensitive or dehydrated. Azelaic Acid helps support clearer-looking, more balanced skin while remaining gentle enough for skin types that may not tolerate harsher acne-focused ingredients.
