Get Gorgeous Skin, Read On!

You CAN turn back the hands of time!

I am totally amazed with the Obagi Skin System products. Younger, healthier looking skin IS possible at any age. After turning 40 two years ago, I noticed a remarkable change in my skin. It began to look and feel dry, thin and less elastic. Small fine lines appeared out of nowhere around my eyes and the edge of my top lip. My skin tone seemed uneven, a faint shadow appeared around my mouth and several small dark freckles and splotches popped up. 

After fruitlessly exhausting my cash and efforts with over the counter moisturizers and night creams, I consulted a cosmetic surgeon. I entered his office looking for a radical change, a laser treatment, chemical peel, possibly even a face-lift! He examined my skin under a special light to measure the level of environmental damage. I was delighted when he suggested all I needed was a prescription skin care regimen.

How Obagi Works

To work, a skin care product has to penetrate below the skin's surface to stimulate cellular turnover. The level of active ingredients in most department store and over the counter products are usually so low, they do very little to actually improve skin condition.

Obagi products penetrate below the skin's surface to correct damage in all layers of the skin. The Obagi website suggests their Systems trigger a Therapeutic Cascade that:

  • Pushes fresher cells to the surface faster for smoother skin and reduced wrinkles
  • Corrects current pigmentation (freckles and age spots) and prevents the appearance of new pigmentation
  • Promotes more uniform cells at the deepest layer for better skin structure and balanced, even skin tone
  • Increases collagen and elastin for firmer, more resilient skin
  • Increases nutrient's natural hydration and circulation for supple, healthy-looking skin  

The Obagi Systems

Obagi Nu-Derm Transformation System : accelerates cellular turnover for skin with moderate to severe sun damage.

The Obagi Nu-Derm Starter Set below is available for Normal/Oily and Normal/Dry skin.

                Set Includes

Obagi-C Rx System : for brighter , photolumines skin with mild to moderate sun damage. (This is the system I personally use)

Obagi-C Rx Starter Set includes:

Good skin care doesn't come cheap. I'll be the first to admit, these products are a little pricey. But we're talking about our face here, and I'm telling you these products are well worth every penny! Obagi means serious skin care. Waste your hard earned money no longer on over the counter products that just plain don't work. If you want results, you want Obagi.

Personally, I have been using the Obagi-C system for the past three years. Unlike other products on the market, these products work quickly to reverse signs of aging and improve skin's appearance. I noticed a change in my skin within the first week! There's no hype or false promises with these products. Obagi really does correct and repair damaged skin.

Not tooting my own horn, but I have received a ton of compliments on my skin since I began using Obagi. My skin tone is remarkably smooth and even.  The dark shadow around my mouth has faded as well as the age spots. Fine lines and wrinkles have been greatly reduced, some completely gone! My skin is now naturally moist, supple, more radiant, firmer and youthful looking. I'm very excited about what these products have done for me. I hope sharing my experience with using Obagi can be helpful to others!

As with ANY prescription strength product, check with your doctor before using and read all literature provided by the manufacturer!

I give these products a solid 10 out of 10!

P.S. Don't forget your suncreen today!
