I have oily skin, texture on forehead (closed comedones maybe) and tend to have larger pores and slight redness on my cheeks.

I started using the ordinary Azelaic acid every day. It’s been 2 weeks and I’m just getting a little annoyed bc my skin is looking more red and still purging. All the pics attached are 1-2 days apart. Idk I guess I’m looking for advice/should I stick with the routine and wait it out ? Some days I feel like it’s finally settling down but then the next day I’m purging again. I know it’s not as a bad as it could be I’m just getting impatient lol

My every day routine

AM: prequel glycerin cleanser, geek and gorgeous 10% niacinamide, skin 1004 poremizing centella moisturizer, the ordinary SPF serum (don’t love the SPF bc it’s kinda greasy)

PM: prequel oil cleanser, prequel salicylic acid cleanser, the ordinary hyaluronic acid, the ordinary 10% Azelaic, prequel half and half moisturizer
