So if your azelaic acid is a serum, like the newest serum, then you're gonna apply that first and then tretinoin and then a moisturizer. If your azelaic acid is a cream, then generally it doesn't matter which one you apply first, but I typically will do tretinoin first and then azelaic acid followed by a moisturizer.
