The ingredients are Glycerinated Azelaic Acid Complex, Niacinamide, Vitamin C and Coffee Seed Extract.This is Cruelty Free, Paraben Free, Vegan, Gluten Free, Fragrance Free and Dermatologist Tested.You dispense the product with a pump. Azelaic Acid is new to me - it can be used for a variety of skin concerns, being quite gentle. It can help improve issues like dullness, texture, redness, uneven tone, hyperpigmentation, rosacea and acne.Azelaic Acid is an antioxidant found in grains which has less likelihood of irritation, compared to other topical acids, and can be used daily.My skin concerns are the odd acne breakout / blocked pores (even in my 50s, sigh). I also sometimes get red, itchy patches on my cheeks - quite mild, but my mum has rosacea and I get subtle flare ups after eating spicy food or drinking alcohol (I rarely drink these days).I'm using this in the morning under a moisturiser with SPF. The product has a kinda sour smell (though it's an acid, you don't expect it to smell great), thankfully the scent disappears quickly. The serum is clear, slightly runny and easy to spread over face and neck (2 pumps should do).After a week of use, my skin is looking toned, smooth, and I've not had the prickly, itchy, redness on my cheeks at all. No blocked pores or sore zits at the moment, so it's helping with that too.Tentatively pleased, though I think Azelaic Acid is more of a longer term endeavour - most seem to be seeing results after a month or two's use.As ever, not all acids, even gentler ones, are suitable for everyone. If you have sensitive skin I'd suggest a patch test first! But for everyone else, I would recommend giving this a try!

5.0 out of 5 stars Reduces redness well

I've been using the Naturium Azelaic Topical Acid 10% for exactly 8 days and I have genuinely noticed a difference in my skin already. It’s super lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave any weird residue or tackiness. I use it mostly to help with redness (my face can sometimes get quite blotchy) and uneven texture. My skin looks smoother, calmer, and just more even overall. It also layers well under moisturizer and makeup too, there's no clumpiness or peeling like some other brands. If you’re looking for something that tackles multiple skin concerns without being harsh, this is 100% worth trying. It’s earned a permanent spot in my routine.

I like this product, it does what it says on the tin. It’s an exfoliating serum which has helped me with some dry skin patches I get. I really like the fact it has vitamin C in it too as I felt it gave my face a little extra lift. It is a little sticky though which left my face feeling a bit weird, especially as I then did the rest of my skincare routine.Definitely not for every day use, but as a one off i would say it’s great to have it in the cupboard as a go to when your skin is a little dry and needs that pick me up

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Brand

Azelaic acid is well known for treating hyperpigmentation and lightening dark spots over time. Naturium is a good brand so I was excited when this came up on the vine programme. Azelaic acid is gentle enough to use everyday but you only need a pea size amount so the product goes a long way. Using more will not give better results and will result in skin barrier being damaged. This must be paired with sunscreen when used in morning. Too early to tell for results as need time time to see if marks will be eliminated.Product is vegan friendly and dermatologist tested which gives me confidence in the product. Also has vitamin C and niacinamide which are wonderful properties for the skin. Good brand and happy with product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent quality and fast acting

I'm impressed by this and while we all have unique needs, it settled my skin down in no time at all. It light in use, absorbs quick enough and it's non-greasy although it has a slight denseness to it while waiting to absorb.For me it's quick to settle my irritated skin reducing the redness and bumps while making it far less itchy. It is worth noting the bottle i got was a pump top vs a dropper, and you do need to be careful while pumping because it can shoot out quickly!Really pleased with this and while mileage will vary, for me it has worked well.Recommended.

This is a clear serum with no particular scent and a light consistency, fast absorption into my skin, just a slight sticky coat at first, straight after application, but goes off quite quickly.I find it very useful after sun exposure, even if I use sunscreen my skin will still regenerate after a beach holiday. With this serum I had the opportunity to remove residual skin, the first layer affected by the sun, through an efficient and extremely natural process. After about a week of daily applications of this serum, the skin begins the exfoliation and cleansing process. The complexion remains so luminous and the color is much more uniform due to the regeneration.The automatic dosing with the pump saves a lot of product, and there is no risk of leakage. Nice texture, does what it promises, affordable price, I truly recommend it!
