Azelaic Acid

Azelaic acid is a naturally found compound sourced from grains like barley, wheat, and rye.

Azelaic acid is a naturally found substance in grains like barley, wheat, and rye. For skincare purposes, it’s synthetically produced to ensure stability and is commonly included in formulations due to its versatile benefits.

In dermatology, azelaic acid is commonly prescribed for managing acne, rosacea, and hyperpigmentation. It combats acne-causing bacteria, calms inflammation, and slows melanin production—making it a powerful agent for brightening and evening out the skin tone.

Azelaic acid offers multiple skin benefits, including reducing redness, lightening dark spots, and enhancing overall skin tone. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for sensitive skin, while its antioxidant properties help defend against free radical damage. With consistent use, it can lead to a brighter, clearer complexion with fewer breakouts and reduced irritation.
