Cos de Baha AZ20

Just a mini review on cos de baha’s take on 20% Azelaic Acid

– cheaper per volume vs prescription options like Skinoren. At around the same price, I’m getting 50ml

– one pump is almost exactly a pea size and can cover my entire face and then some

– not gritty compared to melazepam

– dries down matte

I’m not particularly new to AzA, been using on and off since 2021 iirc. When I reintroduced this active thru this product in my routine, I got the mild tingling/itchy sensation which I also experienced with melazepam and azclear so that gives me confidence.

Been using for about a month now. I didn’t notice anything bad. No major improvements as well but to be fair, my skin had been pretty clear for a good while. Just minimal hyperpigmentation from my occasional acne that clears fairly quickly and don’t really bother me. I have that minimal kind of routine with tretinoin(started 2019) as the backbone.

I mainly use AB now for sunscreens and oil cleansers, no random toners, essences, and serums.
