341. Acne, Rosacea or Pigmentation? You Need to Know About Azelaic Acid
Description
We’re giving azelaic acid its well-deserved moment in this week's Expert episode.
You’ve probably noticed it popping up everywhere lately — and for good reason. It’s gentle but effective, great for acne, rosacea, pigmentation, and sensitive skin, with fewer side effects than retinol or exfoliating acids.
We break down how it stacks up against niacinamide and salicylic acid, the best strengths to look for, how to layer it with other actives, and bust some myths along the way.
Plus, we’re answering an Adore Anonymous question on how long it actually takes to see results from skincare. Spoiler: Patience is key, and skin cycles matter.
We also weigh in on novelty-flavoured toothpaste for this week's Win, Bin, or Recycle? and share the liquid eyeliner that not even Tegan's double-cleanse could take off. Now that's long-wear.
