Azelaic acid can have a purging period like retinoids do.

How long it also makes my skin itchy after using it also its more expensive than tretenoin

I’m not sure how long the purge phase is, I tried 20% for a few weeks and it broke me out but not in an irritation way. No redness, dryness, peeling, etc. I quit using it cause I started on tretinoin. I think it’s normal for it to tingle/itch on your face but that can be minimized by making your skin as dry as possible when u apply it. Make sure it’s not wet with water, moisturizer, etc

Only if your skin is completely adjusted to the tretinoin. I use salicylic acid and Tret 0.05% and it works fine for me but I’ve been on tret for 10 months.

If you add in another active ingredient introduce it slowly (start with 1-2 nights a week, move up if you react well) and focus on hydration/moisturizing your skin.
