Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate (PAD)

Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate (PAD) is a water-soluble azelaic acid derivative that helps improve the look of uneven skin tone, visible discolouration, and blemish-prone congestion for a clearer, more balanced-looking complexion. Known for its gentle skin-friendly profile, it also helps support hydration and refine the overall appearance of the skin.
PAD is often used in skincare to help improve the look of uneven tone, dark spots, and post-blemish marks while keeping skin feeling balanced and comfortable. Because it is a gentler derivative of azelaic acid, it is well suited for skin that looks congested, unbalanced, or prone to visible discolouration.

With continued use, PAD helps skin appear clearer, smoother, and more even-looking over time. It also supports hydration, making it a useful ingredient for routines focused on brightening and refining the skin without feeling too harsh.
