Geek & Gorgeous aPAD Azelaic Acid Soothing Serum, 1 oz

I like the texture of this serum. It’s easy to apply, nice and clear and sort of a liquidy gel texture. I haven’t had any irritation from it, either. I look forward to seeing if it helps with my skin texture.

I have sensitive, oily skin that has become much more reactive in recent years. I've had perioral dermatitis on and off since I was a kid, and it's come back with a vengeance. So many products I used to tolerate well now make my face burn. This product, however, I tolerate very well. I patch tested it before using, of course, but I've had instances where something patch tests fine and then irritates my face when I spread it all over. This not only does not make my face itch, burn or swell, but delivers on the promises it makes pretty quickly: my swelling went down, my redness is much subtler and I have no itching around my nose (which for me is a constant). Naturally other people might be sensitive to this, but if you have similar skin to mine (acne and irritation prone, sensitive, oily) you might do well with this, even if it is an azelaic acid derivative rather than azelaic acid. I can't speak to the data backing it up, but I certainly have had very good results so far.

This is a good product, but there’s a bit of ways because it is so watery

New to skincare and tried this azelaic acid serum since it is highly recommended. Started slow, twice a week, then 3 or 4 times a week and then. Now I do it twice a day. No reaction to it. The only azelaic acid I have used so nothing to compare to regarding feeling, I do feel that my skin feels a little tight, but it could be because I apply it before my moisturizer.

Geek and Gorgeous makes top notch serums and we can get them on Amazon with free shipping now! I had heard about Azelaic Acid and it's abilities to diminish redness. This product proves that to be right. It also does not irritate my sensitive skin even using it daily. 2 weeks later and I see less redness. Also absorbs impeccably. Recommend!!!

Mi marca favorita

Breakouts reduced. Really helpful in keeping my redness down. Skins loving it!❤️

I didn’t see any effect on my skin with this product (used 2x day for 30 days). I’ve since switched to a different azaelic acid product that is actually making a difference for my peri-hormone-related breakouts

Empiezo con lo que no me ha gustado: el packaging me hizo sospechar que el producto pudiera haber sido vendido a otra persona previamente; la caja no venía envuelta en plástico, estaba un poco destrozada y el tapón del producto no hizo el típico "clac" al girarlo "desprecintando" de alguna manera el bote. El producto en sí, una maravilla. No imaginaba que fuera tan bueno. Tengo rosácea y en dos días la inflamación y la rojez habían disminuido una barbaridad y sin ser agresivo para la piel (otros productos han conseguido efectos parecidos pero pelando la piel del rostro, este no). Estoy muy contenta

Buonissimo acido azelaico. È la seconda boccetta che compro e sulla mia pelle funziona! La rende più liscia ed uniforme.

I’ve only been using this product a week but I’ve already noticed big changes in my rosacea and spider veins. Would highly recommend.

Ich bin jetzt ein Weilchen im Skincaregame, habe entsprechend schon viele Seren ausprobiert, um meine Rötungen und gelegentlichen Unreinheiten in den Griff zu bekommen, aber das aPAD von Geek & Gorgeous ist mein absoluter Favorit geworden. 3 Argumente: Die perfekte Textur: Im Gegensatz zu vielen Azelainsäure-Produkten, die oft krümelig oder dickflüssig sind, ist dieses Serum auf Wasserbasis. Es ist super leicht, zieht sofort ein und lässt sich perfekt mit anderen Produkten schichten, ohne zu "pillingen" (Röllchenbildung). Wirkung ohne Reizung: Mit 20% Azeclair (einem Derivat der Azelainsäure) wirkt es extrem effektiv gegen Rötungen und Pickelmale, ist dabei aber erstaunlich sanft. Meine Haut fühlt sich nach der Anwendung beruhigt an, nicht gereizt. Glow-Effekt: Wie auf der Packung versprochen ("balance + brighten"), sorgt es für einen viel ebenmäßigeren Teint. Rote Flecken verblassen deutlich schneller und die Haut bekommt eine gesunde Ausstrahlung. Unschlagbares Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis: Für die Qualität der Inhaltsstoffe und die saubere Formulierung ist der Preis sehr gut. Fazit: Wer mit Rötungen, Rosacea oder Unreinheiten zu kämpfen hat und eine leichte, effektive Lösung sucht, kommt an diesem Serum nicht vorbei. Es ist die sanftere, aber ebenso wirkungsvolle Alternative zu herkömmlichen Azelainsäure-Cremes. Ein absolutes Nachkaufprodukt!

I love Geek & gorgeous products, and this serum is one of them. Makes my skin softer and brighter.
