How it works
The panel on this ampoule names three forms of peptide rather than one: Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5. Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 is a four-amino-acid peptide used in eye products for the look of puffiness and crepiness. On this panel it sits alongside Niacinamide, Hydrolyzed Sponge and Adenosine. Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
Key benefits

- Niacinamide on the same panel, the formula's active
- Hydrolyzed Sponge on the same panel, the formula's active
- 30 ml to a unit
- Korean GS1 barcode matched against a Korea sourcing supplier's record for this item
Key actives
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 is a four-amino-acid peptide used in eye products for the look of puffiness and crepiness.
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 is the five-amino-acid peptide originally sold as Matrixyl. It is used for the look of fine lines and is one of the longest-standing cosmetic peptides.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 is a fatted three-amino-acid peptide used for the look of firmness and fine lines. The palmitoyl tail is what lets it cross an oily surface.
Niacinamide
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
Hydrolyzed Sponge
Hydrolyzed Sponge is processed freshwater sponge, which carries fine silica spicules. In a formula it works as a mild physical exfoliant.
Adenosine
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated.

What does the Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule) actually contain?
Its ingredient list is led by Niacinamide, with the rest of the formula built to support that active rather than compete with it. We list the ingredients in the order the manufacturer prints them, so the ones near the top of the panel are doing the most work in the formula.
How do I use the Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule)?
Use this ampoule as the treatment step right after toner. To apply, press a small amount into cleansed, toned skin and follow with moisturizer. Keep it to AM/PM unless the packaging states otherwise, and give the rest of the routine a moment to settle before layering the next step. Give it a full bottle or box before judging the result, since most Korean routines are built for steady use rather than a single application.
Is the Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule) the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?
This Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule) is the Korean-market formula, not a version reformulated for US shelves. It arrives with its original Korean-market barcode and batch code intact so the formula can be checked against the box on arrival.
Can I use the Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule) with other actives in my routine?
Yes, as long as it is used in its own step, the treatment step right after toner, and not layered on top of a product doing the same job. Introduce any new step gradually over the first week or two and keep an eye on how the skin responds before adding a second new active alongside it.
Who is the Azelaic Acid Exosome Shot 7500 (Pore Ampoule) suited for?
It suits most skin types looking for treatment step right after toner rather than a single acute problem. It comes in a 30ml format. Anyone with a known sensitivity to a specific ingredient should check the full ingredient panel on this page before buying.

How to use
- Use it in the evening in the serum slot, after toner, once your skin already handles the lower grade.
- Three or four drops for the whole face, or a smaller dose over the T-zone alone.
- Press it in, wait a minute, then moisturizer over the top and sunscreen the following morning.
- Every other evening at most to begin with. Never move up a grade and add a second acid in the same week.
Worth knowing
- Introduce it two to three nights a week at first and watch how the skin responds before moving to nightly use.
- Pair it with a daily sunscreen step, since brightening and exfoliating actives can make skin more reactive to sun exposure.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
