What our customers are saying
Nature Republic Azepair Lotion: Azelaic Acid (1% formula) - Pure azelaic acid derived from sunflower seeds. It addresses sebum problems, pores, and rough skin. Penetrating NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) is expected to address dryness and lack of firmness. It contains glutathione, niacinamide, CICA (Centella asiatica extract), hyaluronic acid, and ceramide. Its smooth texture blends easily into the skin. Fragrance-free. Packed with ingredients that address dryness and lack of firmness, it leaves skin feeling moisturized for a long-lasting effect. I also love the easy-to-use push-type formula. This powerful product prevents sebum problems and rough skin, while also addressing open pores caused by dryness and providing moisture for a translucent complexion. I use it at night without experiencing any irritation or dryness.
This lotion is as smooth as water. It feels like it penetrates into the skin. It's refreshing, so it's good for mornings too. People with dry skin might find it lacking in the winter. I like to apply a generous amount to a cotton pad and apply it to my face, or cool it down before using!
Inspired by Korean skincare, this formula contains 99% pure azelaic acid, penetrating NMN, glutathione, niacinamide, CICA, hyaluronic acid, and ceramide. Recommended for those with pore problems, sebum issues, and uneven skin texture, those seeking to prevent rough skin, and those seeking a clearer complexion! ●Lotion: "Satiate" - Contains 1% naturally derived pure azelaic acid [6 FREE] - Free of alcohol, parabens, mineral oil, coloring, fragrance, and silicone. This smooth toner is not sticky but still provides moderate moisturizing power. The pump-type formula makes it easy to use. ●Serum: "Replenish" - Contains 5% highly concentrated pure azelaic acid [4 FREE] - Free of alcohol, parabens, coloring, and silicone. This lightweight milk-type essence leaves skin feeling moisturized. ●Cream: "Protect" - Contains 5% highly concentrated pure azelaic acid [4 FREE] - Free of alcohol, parabens, coloring, and fragrance. The rich, non-sticky texture makes it suitable for both full-face and spot treatments.
I'm obsessed with azelaic acid, so I've been using toners containing azelaic acid derivatives, but...I thought they were too watery and would drip...This one is watery but has a slight viscosity, which is nice♪But it feels a little sticky after application...I'm being selfish (lol).I'm in the middle of my annual spring skin irritation, so I'm applying this liberally.Azelaic acid really does suppress redness!It's reassuring!I was thinking that if it could suppress redness and calm the irritation, I would add other ingredients separately...but it seems to suppress melanin and give firmness, so it might be fine for normal use. *Addendum (April)I've been using it liberally morning and night for about a month now...and when I look in the mirror that I've polished to a shine...huh, does it look good?Aren't you usually disappointed by pores and other issues? (Just me...? lol)Maybe it's the azelaic acid effect♪
It has a watery texture, so you need to apply more than usual. It's not bad to use, but I did notice some leakage. I have rosacea, so I'd be happy if it had even a slight effect.
