Review: Fantastic! - As someone who is 15 weeks postpartum, I recently started developing acne spots all over my face despite never having acne-prone skin. It was quite stressful, especially as I have very sensitive skin and am always cautious about trying new products. I purchased the small tube of Paula’s Choice Azelaic Acid Booster first and I’m glad they offer a small size. It’s tiny, but it meant I could test the product before committing to the full-size one. This cream has worked wonders for my sensitive skin. I experienced a slight tingling sensation when applying it, but it was very mild and never caused any irritation. The results were honestly amazing… my skin started clearing up in less than a week!!! My routine is very simple, I cleanse with the Estée Lauder Perfectly Clean Foam Cleanser (my holy grail cleanser) and then apply a couple of pea-sized amounts of the Paula’s Choice Azelaic Acid Booster across my face. The improvement has been so noticeable that I’ve now ordered the full-size tube. If you’re dealing with postpartum breakouts or have sensitive skin and are considering trying azelaic acid, this product is definitely worth a try.
Review: Great product, wish the tube was bigger for the price! - This stuff is amazing, its done wonders to help heal my blemishes and stop my acne from coming back.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic!
*by W***E on 16 July 2026*

As someone who is 15 weeks postpartum, I recently started developing acne spots all over my face despite never having acne-prone skin. It was quite stressful, especially as I have very sensitive skin and am always cautious about trying new products. I purchased the small tube of Paula’s Choice Azelaic Acid Booster first and I’m glad they offer a small size. It’s tiny, but it meant I could test the product before committing to the full-size one.

This stuff is amazing, its done wonders to help heal my blemishes and stop my acne from coming back.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great But has its flaws.
*by C***� on 29 June 2026*

Overall it works, I have bad rosacea on my cheeks, after 2 days of use it definitely helps to reduce the redness and blur into my skin tone. Even on sweaty days it doesn’t go as bright as it used too. My only problem is that the 5Ml bottle is SUPER tiny and shouldn’t be for £10, I know the brand is popular but I could have gotten a 14% bottle of 30ml for £5 from a less popular brand on Amazon/tiktok.
