Works great even on sensitive skin!

I was unsure if my sensitive skin could tolerate it at first. I cannot use most actives as it disrupts my skin barrier and I get crazy cystic breakouts. This formula was gentle enough, but still had the power to smooth my skin texture (of course I still have scarring from previous breakouts) and reduce redness. I have to be careful applying it near my eye area as it does create some eczema for me on my eyelid, so I first apply a heavy eczema safe cream on my thin skin areas: around my eyes, nose, lips. Then I apply TO soothing barrier serum to my whole face, THEN I layer a decent amount of the Anua serum on my whole face (minus those sensitive areas as I mentioned). I have found this combination to be the most effective for me and my sensitive skin. This serum did cause purging for me personally. After nearly 2 weeks of nightly use, my closed comedones on my forehead are almost completely gone, any larger pimples on my cheek and jaw areas are flattened and less red, and my overall texture has improved. I would recommend this product, however for sensitive skin girlies please note that it’s still an active and you should be extra cautious. Always test actives at night, and do not apply them every single day until you’ve tested it (maybe twice a week at first) and are sure it doesn’t cause a major reaction.

I had a rash on my face from an allergic reaction and I decided to take my chances with this serum. I have been using this with my regular skincare routine with no 'harsh' actives for the past week or so and I'm happy to say that the improvement is there. I could actually see less redness overnight from first application, which was great news for me. I haven't experienced the 'purging' or new breakouts other reviews have mentioned. I suppose azelaic acid works for my skin.
