Overview of Azelaic Acid

Azelaic Acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid found in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. It is a key ingredient in dermatological and personal care products, widely used for treating acne, hyperpigmentation, and improving skin texture.

In personal care, Azelaic Acid is valued for its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and skin-lightening properties, making it ideal for creams, serums, lotions, and gels. It helps reduce acne-causing bacteria, regulates keratinisation, and diminishes dark spots and pigmentation, contributing to even and clear skin.

ChemicalBull supplies high-purity, cosmetic-grade Azelaic Acid suitable for skincare formulations, dermatological products, and personal care applications.

You may also like Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Niacinamide, and Kojic Acid for enhanced skincare solutions targeting acne, pigmentation, and anti-ageing effects.
