A lightweight, fast-absorbing, non-greasy moisturizer for redness-prone, acne-prone, and sensitive-feeling skin. It combines 3% azelaic acid with ANUA's Cica 7 Complex (centella extracts). Together they help calm visible redness, clear congested pores, balance excess oil, and speed recovery from breakouts. Zinc hyaluronate and multiple forms of hyaluronic acid (10 types, per some retailers) give deep hydration and support the barrier. The finish is fresh and non-sticky, and the formula is glycerin-free. With regular use, skin looks smoother, more even, and more resilient.
Key ingredients:
-
3% azelaic acid: helps improve the look of visible redness, uneven texture, and blemish-prone skin
-
Cica 7 Complex (centella extract, madecassoside, asiaticoside, asiatic acid, madecassic acid): soothes and comforts stressed skin
-
Zinc hyaluronate and hyaluronic acid complex: intense hydration without heaviness
-
Squalane: softens and supports the barrier
The formula is not fragrance-free. It contains essential oils and the fragrance allergens that come with them (limonene, citronellol, geraniol, linalool), so it may not suit customers who are sensitive to fragrance.
How to use: After cleansing and toning, apply an appropriate amount to the face and massage gently until absorbed. Use morning and evening as the last step of your routine. It works best after an azelaic acid toner or serum, if skin tolerates it. If you're new to azelaic acid, start once daily, since mild tingling is possible. Use sunscreen in the morning.
Best for: Redness, breakout-prone skin, congested pores, and sensitive or reactive skin that needs a light daily moisturizer.
