Spot Control Serum

Apply it directly onto active spots and blemish-prone areas only, not all over your face. This is a targeted treatment with concentrated actives. For all-over prevention, use our Anti-Blemish Toner. For all-over hydration and barrier support, use our Soothing Repair Serum.

You can use it twice daily, morning and evening. Apply it after cleansing and toning, allow it to dry completely, then follow with Soothing Repair Serum. If using in the morning, always apply sunscreen with a high SPF factor as your final step, as Azelaic Acid can increase sun sensitivity.

Reduce the frequency of application. Instead of twice daily, use it once daily (ideally at night). If dryness continues, try using it every other day until your skin adjusts. Make sure you're following with our Soothing Repair Serum, which provides essential barrier support and hydration.

No — this blemish serum doesn't contain AHA or BHA acids. Azelaic Acid works differently to traditional exfoliating acids: rather than exfoliating the skin's surface, it targets active breakouts and post-blemish marks directly, while helping to keep pores clear. If you're looking for gentle exfoliation as part of your routine, our Spot Control Face Wash uses PHA (Gluconolactone), a gentler alternative to AHA and BHA.

Yes. Azelaic Acid is well known for helping keep pores clear, which can reduce the appearance of blackheads and enlarged pores over time. Used alongside our Spot Control Face Wash, which helps unclog pores during cleansing, and our Anti-Blemish Toner, this spot serum supports clearer-looking skin as part of a full routine.

Yes. Niacinamide is well documented for helping regulate sebum production and control excess oil, making this face serum a good fit for oily and combination skin. It's lightweight and fast-absorbing, so it won't add extra oil or feel greasy.

This blemish serum is formulated to target post-blemish marks and uneven skin tone, a common form of hyperpigmentation left behind after breakouts. Azelaic Acid and Niacinamide work together to visibly reduce these imperfections over time, supporting clearer, more even-looking skin for blemish-prone skin types. It isn't designed to treat other forms of hyperpigmentation, such as sun damage or melasma.

Yes. Niacinamide has recognised antioxidant properties, helping to protect developing skin from everyday environmental stress alongside its oil-regulating and skin-tone-evening benefits, helping to promote clear skin.

Yes. This anti-blemish serum combines Azelaic Acid and Niacinamide with Hyaluronic Acid, which hydrates without adding oil or weight, so it treats blemishes and supports hydration in one step. For deeper, lasting hydration, follow with our Soothing Repair Serum.
