I have dry-combination, sensitive skin and my main problems are hyperpigmentation and blackheads/clogged pores around my t zone. I also tend to have milia on my forehead if I don't exfoliate enough.

Great thank you ! I tried the ordinary's azelaic acid suspension but I felt it made my skin a bit dry. Is that possible ?

Azelaic aicd a bit of a mattifying affect and there can be a dry feeling immediately after applying, but overall it is actually helpful for the skin barrier. The ordinary texture is also quite particular. You could try this product, it contains a derivative of the azelaic acid - it is also effective https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/geek-gorgeous-101-apad

What about the Paulas choice 10% azelaic acid booster ?
There’s salicylic acid inside though so I don’t know if it will be irritating since I’m already using the augustinus bader toner with azelaic acid.

Salicylic acid daily might be too much, especially if dryness is a concern. How about the inkey list one? https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/inkey-list-azelaic-acid-serum
Oh, I love it!
I think your skin might be able to tolerate an azelaic acid serum / cream once per day - maybe in the PM. It gently works against hyperpigmentation and also helps with acne. In case you’d like to use fewer product, you could try skipping the marula oil - the moisturizer should be enough (but it is just an option - the oil doesn’t hurt)
