(Here's my current routine, also tell me what should I add and remove)

21m, I'm a complete beginner with both azelaic acid and tretinoin.

My main goal is improving uneven skin tone/pigmentation and marks. I'm considering either azelaic acid 10% or tretinoin 0.025%, but I'm unsure which would be better to start with.

For someone with no previous experience with either:

Which one would you recommend starting with?

Is 10% azelaic acid a good beginner strength?

Is 0.025% tretinoin too strong to start with?

Would you eventually use both, or is that unnecessary?

I'd appreciate honest opinions from people who have actually used them.

I ordered it from kojiesan.in website,.

Is this the best product or there's some criticism about it?
