It starts reducing the size and redness of pimples within 1–2 days, and I only need the tiniest dab on each blemish. The small bottle is definitely SMALL, but because so little product is needed, I can see it lasting much longer than I initially expected. Another thing I appreciate is that it isn’t drying or irritating like many acne spot treatments. It also has no noticeable scent, which is a huge plus for anyone who’s sensitive to fragrances. Overall, it’s an effective, gentle spot treatment that has worked well for my skin, and I’m very happy with the results so far. Review: Changed My Skin & Life! - I question why I didn’t get this product sooner in my life. Seriously. This product has made such a positive change in my skin - I feel like crying. While I have never been officially diagnosed, I’ve always felt that I have a type of rosacea. I don’t get pustules, zits or anything like that (unless I consume a lot of certain sugary drinks, and food) but for as long as I can remember, my face has always dealt with redness. Yes, certain things such as consuming sugar triggers it and makes it worse. I’ve been using skincare since my mid 20s. I am currently in my early 30s. I feel for the most part I was using products that were benefiting my skin, but as far as the redness went, nothing I used seemed to treat it. Around a year ago, I heard about how azelaic acid can be beneficial to people who have rosacea - treating redness and the pustules that go with it. So while I was aware of it, I just kept putting off purchasing it. Life stuff always coming up. After talking with ChatGPT about how sick I was about always walking around with a red/pink face, it recommended azelaic acid. Specifically Paula’s Choice. Now we all know that with a lot of skin care products it can take time to see differences. No lie… I began seeing results from this within just under two weeks or so. The redness in my face has decreased A LOT. I am now at a point in my life where I feel more comfortable going out without having to wear foundation or using something like Cicapair by Dr. Jart+ (which by the way is great at covering the redness). I am extremely pale, so dealing with a face that was red almost constantly - I felt that the difference between my face and body were so dramatically different, it made me self-conscious. But now? I am much more confident. The redness isn’t completely gone, but when I say it has been dramatically reduced, I mean it! My skin also has this type of glow that I’ve never experienced with other products - not even my tretinoin. I use this product every other day. I have several products I use for my skin and I cycle through them every other day. When I do apply this, like with every other skin care product, I always mist my skin lightly with water. Yes, doing this increases the potency of products but for my skin, I can tolerate it just fine. I also feel that by dampening your skin, the product spread, spreads a lot more evenly and easily. While this is priced at $39 and being only 1 ounce, I know it sounds expensive. But I will say that a little goes a LONG way. You don’t need to be using globs of this stuff. Also, I feel you can get away with using this every other day, like myself, so it can last longer. Everyone’s skin is different. Like I said, I’ve never been officially diagnosed, but based on what I’ve experienced and what I’ve read, I truly do feel I have some form of rosacea. I also have certain triggers that make it worse; such as consuming certain types of sugary drinks. So I feel that if you identify your specific triggers, use this product… you should see a definite difference. Wish I had gotten this product sooner! I absolutely love it. ## Features - CLARIFY SKIN, SOOTHE IRRITATION: This highly effective serum booster is a multi-action powerhouse, featuring azelaic acid, known to reduce the look of blemishes and acne, while also helping to fade brown spots and marks from previous acne breakouts. - LIGHTWEIGHT FACE SERUM: Paula's Choice 10% Azelaic Acid Booster also contains salicylic acid (BHA) a gentle exfoliator.

The texture looks a little thick at first, but it spreads very easily, feels lightweight, and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. I have combination/oily, acne-prone skin with rosacea, and this has been amazing for maintaining clear skin. It helps keep my pores clear, reduces blackheads and occasional breakouts, and gives a very gentle exfoliation without irritating or drying my skin. A little goes a long way, so I think the bottle will last quite a while. I’ve been using it every morning for about a month, and I’m very happy with the results. If you already tolerate salicylic acid well and are looking for a gentle daily treatment, I highly recommend it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Paula's Choice BOOST 10% Azelaic Acid Booster Cream Gel, Licorice Extract & Salicylic Acid, Oil-Free Skin Brightening Serum - Paula's Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Salicylic Acid Exfoliant-Facial Exfoliant for Enlarged Pores, Wrinkles & Fine Lines, Suitable for Blackhead-Prone Skin, Fragrance-Free - Paula's Choice SKIN BALANCING Pore-Reducing Face Toner for Combination and Oily Skin, Minimizes Large Pores, Controls Oil & Shine, Hydrates & Replenishes, Suitable for Acne-Prone Skin --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/73490991-oil-free-serum-fades-discoloration-and-post-blemish-marks-licorice](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/73490991-oil-free-serum-fades-discoloration-and-post-blemish-marks-licorice) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
