FAQs

Is COSRX Azelaic Acid good for acne-prone skin?

Yes. The 10% azelaic acid formula is designed to target blemishes, excess sebum, clogged pores and post-blemish marks.

Can I use COSRX Azelaic Acid for acne marks?

It can help improve the appearance of post-acne marks and uneven skin tone. The formula also contains Alpha-Arbutin, which supports a more even-looking complexion.

Can I use it in a glass skin routine?

Yes. It can be included in a Korean glass skin routine, particularly when your routine also focuses on hydration and skin-barrier support. Introduce it gradually rather than layering many strong actives together.

Is COSRX Azelaic Acid suitable for sensitive skin?

The product is formulated with soothing ingredients such as Panthenol, Centella Asiatica and Allantoin, but azelaic acid can still cause irritation in some people. Start slowly and stop if significant irritation occurs.

Is COSRX Azelaic Acid a serum?

The current official product name is COSRX Azelaic Acid 10 B5 Redness Soothing Cream, so it is a cream rather than an azelaic acid serum.
