Effaclar A.Z. Azelaic Acid Gel Cream

Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid, which is found on normal skin. In skincare, it acts as a multi-functional ingredient, regarded for its ability to visibly target imperfections, and its keratolytic properties (can break down and remove unwanted skin tissue). It’s most commonly used to target blemish-prone skin, but also helps to exfoliate the skin and can help visibly reduce post-blemish marks making it a valuable ingredient for achieving clearer, more even-toned skin.

The Effaclar A.Z. Azelaic Acid Gel Cream offers a multitude of benefits for various skin concerns, which includes:

• Targets blemishes: Effectively targets blemishes and imperfections.
• Unclogs pores: Its keratolytic properties also help to unclog pores, preventing the buildup of sebum and dead skin cells that can lead to breakouts.
• Hyperpigmentation: The Effaclar A.Z. Gel Cream can help to visibly reduce post-blemish marks by targeting pigment cells responsible for uneven skin tone.
• Improves skin texture: The gentle exfoliating action of azelaic acid helps to remove dead skin cells, promoting smoother and more refined skin texture.
• Anti-ageing properties: The Effaclar A.Z. Gel Cream’s exfoliating properties can help refine skin texture, including wrinkles, while also supporting skin cell turnover for smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Yes! You can use the Effaclar A.Z. Gel Cream as your daily moisturiser to keep skin clear and smooth. Make sure to patch test any new product before introducing it to your routine.
