Anua's Azelaic Acid 3 Cica Skin Clarifying Toner pairs this perfectly calibrated azelaic acid concentration with the brand's 7-Cica Complex — seven compounds derived from Centella Asiatica — creating a toner that simultaneously clarifies and calms, a combination particularly relevant for sensitive and acne-prone skin where most clarifying actives cause irritation. Azelaic acid's mechanism is multi-directional: it gently loosens the bonds between dead skin cells for a mild exfoliating effect; it inhibits the production of keratin that blocks pores; it provides documented anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activity against acne-causing bacteria; and it inhibits melanin production to fade post-acne hyperpigmentation. Unlike AHAs and BHAs, azelaic acid does not cause significant photosensitivity — this toner is safe for morning and evening use without SPF concerns specifically around the azelaic acid. The 7-Cica Complex (Centella Asiatica Extract, Centella Leaf, Centella Root, Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid) provides the anti-inflammatory and barrier-supporting base that ensures the clarifying activity is tolerated even by reactive skin. Glycyrrhizic Acid from licorice root adds further soothing and brightening activity. Ceramide NP, Squalane, and Ectoin form a barrier-protective trio; Salicylic Acid and Glycolic Acid contribute gentle pore-clearing activity at safe, well-tolerated concentrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Special About Anua Azelaic Acid 3 Cica Skin Clarifying Toner\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAzelaic Acid 3%: Precisely calibrated for twice-daily use — clarifies pores, gently exfoliates dead skin cells, fades post-acne marks, and provides anti-inflammatory and antibacterial support without photosensitivity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-Cica Complex: All seven bioactive compounds of Centella Asiatica — working together to rapidly calm redness, reduce visible inflammation, and support barrier recovery alongside the clarifying actives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlycyrrhizic Acid (Licorice Root): Provides targeted care for visible irritation, supports a more even complexion, and adds gentle brightening activity to the toner's clarifying benefits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramide NP + Squalane + Ectoin: A barrier-protective trio that ensures the clarifying and exfoliating activity does not compromise skin integrity — simultaneously clearing and strengthening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafe AM + PM, No Sun Sensitivity: Azelaic acid does not increase UV sensitivity — this toner integrates into both morning and evening routines without requiring schedule adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOther Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkin Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSensitive, Acne-Prone, Oily, Combination, All Skin Types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkin Concerns:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBlemishes, Redness, Enlarged Pores, Post-Acne Marks, Uneven Texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAzelaic Acid (3%), 7-Cica Complex (Centella Asiatica), Glycyrrhizic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Ceramide NP, Squalane, Ectoin, Zinc PCA, Panthenol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EIP Skin Care","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48226134786306,"sku":null,"price":7200.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/9321\/8050\/files\/Anua_Azelaic_Acid_3_Cica_Skin_Clarifying_Toner_478d6d5e-66ef-4138-b40a-75bc5f94e018.jpg?v=1785147920","url":"https:\/\/eipskincare.com\/products\/anua-azelaic-acid-3-cica-skin-clarifying-toner","provider":"EIP Skin Care","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
