One serum for active breakouts and the dark marks they leave behind. Azelaic acid at 10% is the main active and the reason this works on both — it's one of the few ingredients that handles active spots and the pigmentation left behind afterwards.

Tea tree water and kojic acid back it up on clarity and fading. The actives are encapsulated, so you shake the bottle before each use. Gentle enough for morning and night. Fragrance-free. 30ml.

• 10% Azelaic Acid — a high concentration for an over-the-counter serum, working on active breakouts, texture, and post-acne marks at the same time. Generally well tolerated by sensitive skin.
• 10% Tea Tree Leaf Water — the botanical acne-prone skin knows, used as a water so it runs through the whole formula rather than sitting at a trace.
• Tea Tree Leaf Oil at 50ppm — a small, targeted dose of the concentrated oil alongside the water, without the dryness a higher concentration brings.
• Kojic Acid at 1,000ppm — fades post-acne marks through a different route than the azelaic acid, so pigmentation is addressed from two angles.
• Niacinamide — keeps oil balanced, refines the look of pores, and evens tone.
• Four antioxidants protect against the environmental stress that makes marks linger.
• Coptis Japonica — a traditional Korean botanical, calming and clarifying for breakout-prone skin.
• Encapsulated Actives — shake before use. Keeping them capsuled means they stay stable rather than degrading in the bottle.

Wear SPF every morning. Azelaic acid increases sun sensitivity, and sun exposure deepens post-acne marks.
