The chemists don’t talk about this ingredient as much as they probably should but azelaic acid has a solid amount of data behind it…at the prescription level 15-20% concentration. Naturally, you have to wonder if the 10% azelaic acid products you can purchase as a cosmetic would actually do anything for skin? They dissect the benefits of azelaic acid, discuss the formulation challenges behind this active, and ultimately how they would use a 10% azelaic acid product in their routine.

Peach Slices has a terrific 10% AA formula. I've recently been using Isomers Azelaic Acid Booster Complex, which has 14% AA (I love that they went right up to the line).

@EmmaHacker-kj9un 6 дней назад

I’m using the Cos De Baha 10% AA and like it so far.

@am1156 28 дней назад

Theramid's Azelaic Acid is at 15%.

@lorena.e 23 дня назад

Kisocare also has a 15% pure azelaic acid cream and is available on Amazon by the actual company for around $20

Even at 10% for calming ,anti inflammatory effect azelaic acid is wonderful.Works very fast as calming anti redness ,anti irritation ingridient.Helped me to adjust my skin to tretinoin really good.Works much faster than all cica/centella products

@TiaVaylik 26 дней назад

Dermatica has a 20% and it really helped me when my insurance company decided Azelaic was cosmetic even thou I have rosaca

Yay! I’ve been wondering about this exact question 😄

@samanthaerin1607 27 дней назад

I use Paula’s choice 10% azelaic acid booster and it keeps by acne at bay, without it I get pimples, I think it has more impact than Differin and is my main squeeze for inflammatory acne lol. I have considered trying and rx level to see if a higher % Makes a difference

@ashleymejia8971 27 дней назад

I use the Paula’s choice at moment but have used prescription as well. Prescription is definitely stronger but can be more irritating and drying for sure. I used to have bad Hormonal acne from birth control and now that I’m off it - I find I don’t need prescription strength anymore. I still have combination/ oily skin but the Paula’s choice version is effective enough. I also used prescription tretinoin while I tried both versions of azelaic acid.

@samanthaerin1607 27 дней назад

I think I may reach out for prescription strength tretinoin at some point. I bet I just wanna make sure I’m done with kids first.

Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge as always!

Amazing. Thank you for the podcast. Can't wait to trying your Specialist AHA/BHA mix once it hits UK shores. I have oily skin and look forward to a once a week delve into an exfoliatimg mask routine. Hope your products will be available here soon. By the way: Dermatica have 12-15% azelaic acid over the counter in the UK. They can also do an online consult and do a mixed formulatuon according to your skin care needs (online consult woth photo uploads etc). I'm currently using the 15% azelaic acid in the morning, and the Dermatica custom formulated (0.05% tretinoin + 15% azelaic acid + 5% tranexamic acid serum that comes in 12.5ml) at night. Only one month in, noticed some changes in texture. And my skin is way less sensitive to other skincare products. No change with hyperpigmentation (Fitzpatrick IV skin type)

@ainakunigelyte 27 дней назад

hello:) amazing episode as always!:)I wanted to ask what would be the most effective over the counter ingredient to use on my chest prone to acne? (I am stingy with my tretinoin which I only save for the face haha, since it's hard to get the prescription for it)... currently I just use either glycolic or salycilic, was thinking to include azelaic 10% as extra, but based on all the lack of data, do you think it could be worth it? Or would retinol 1% be worth it?Or what else I could use?:) I dont think those acids help much:( thank yoU!

My favourite chemists! This sparked a question that I'm dying to get your thoughts on. How much do you think concentration matters as compared to the applied dose? So in this example, if I dilute one part of my 20% azelaic acid formulation with one part water and then apply twice as much of it, doesn't the water just evaporate off my skin and leave me with the same dosage of AA? I get super confused about why concentrations are such a sticking point when there's no consensus for most product types of how much you should be applying in the first place! Another example: science-based skincare people often point to the fact that niacinamide has mostly been studied at 3-5%, but when I read the studies they're mostly about niacinamide-containing moisturizers - so it's completely realistic to me that someone who is applying just a couple drops of the TO 10% niacinamide serum is getting a similar dose to someone covering their face in a 5% niacinamide mosturizer! Anyway, maybe there's something here about the effect that concentration has specifically as compared to dose that I don't get because I don't know that much cosmetic chemistry / skin physiology. Would love to know your thoughts!

I have acne prone very sensitive skin. Azelaic at 10% and 15% really helps my skin. But I can't use the 15% twice a day as it stings my skin. I tried the derivstive from Geek&Gorgeous, and it broke me out. Also, when it comes to brightening, I only get good results if Azelaic acid is mixed with other brightening ingredients.

@ChemistConfessions 26 дней назад

thanks for sharing your experience! hyperpigmentation defiinitely takes a full cocktail of good ingredients

@db-gb5xi 26 дней назад

I'm pretty sure almost every derm pregnancy video recommends azelaic acid as one of the few products that's safe to use.

@ChemistConfessions 26 дней назад

yup! it is one of the few ingredients with any positive pregnancy safe data

@yakata79 24 дня назад

By the way I have heard The Ordinary has recently improved their 10% azelaic acid in this past year. There was no announcement or anything but I’ve been asking people who have tried the product before. And they say they feel a formulation difference as there’s no grittiness now. I bought one a couple months ago and it was not gritty.

@ChemistConfessions 21 день назад

that's good to know! Thanks for sharing, we'd have to give it another go... the last bottle we got was very sandpaper-esque 😅

@emersonpicks 19 дней назад

How about the derivative os azelaic acid? Potassium azeloyl diglycinate?

@ChemistConfessions 19 дней назад

you read our mind! that's gonna be the next episode coming out this Monday

@ChemistConfessions wow thanks

Just discovered your videos and am learning so much... but I'm hoping you could re-address collagen supplements, specifically with a video OR comment on Dr. Abs Settipalli's videos on collagen drink supplement NutralCost which addresses type 4 and 7 as opposed to 1 and 3 (found in all others) which are not effective on skin - according to science and studies he addresses?

@ChemistConfessions Месяц назад

that's a great idea! it's definitely time we revisit the collagen supplement rabbit hole...
