Its smooth, non-grainy texture and 10% azelaic acid, right around the strongest you can buy over the counter, keep coming up. Gurus say it may help calm redness and rosacea-prone skin, and some pair it with tretinoin to keep breakouts at bay. Those with fragrance concerns may want to note the gardenia floral extract, though most people don't notice any scent. One take rated it mixed without giving a reason.
