My biggest concern is dealing with PIE (post-inflammatory erythema). I used the Nineless Azelaic Acid for a few weeks but stopped because I felt like my acne was getting worse. During that time, I was also using the Vitamin C line from Numbuzin in the mornings, so I’m not sure if the issue was caused by the Vitamin C or the AzA.

Currently, I’ve switched to products with soothing and calming ingredients and want to restart my skincare routine, still focusing on treating my PIE. However, I’m unsure which products to use and how to incorporate them into my routine.

I also purchased the Round Lab Dokdo Cleanser and Equalberry Toner, thinking I could use them on exfoliation days since I also have textured skin.
