Question
Before I purchase ANOTHER set of www.obagi.com. Check it out! I bought everything from my doctor and only used Obagi products during the 18 weeks. With the RX System, I didn't mmh/product/chemicalpeel/index.vm?procid=4" target=_blank>peel and flake that much really. Actually, I put up more with peeling, flaking, breaking out before I started on the program. That's one reason I went with their products.
I am 64 so I have a few lines but they are faint and not deep. My skin feels so soft, clean, and healthy now. It was one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
Good luck to you!


Answer
I just clicked on www.mmh/product/beauty/obagi/index.vm?procid=13&catid=202" target=_blank>obagi.com in my above post and it took me to a webpage about StyleViolet. Sorry! I don't know what I did wrong! Anyways, go to the Obagi website. Lot's of information there!


Answer
Thank you so much for the information. I did not know where to begin with this and did not want to walk around looking red and shiny for a month.
Did either of you use all of the products in the line? How about the vitamiin C?
Is it time consuming?
I am a hairdresser and work with beautiful people every day. I would hate for them to come to me and see me with awful skin from mmh/product/chemicalpeel/index.vm?procid=4" target=_blank>peeling. I am glad you told me about the system that did not make you peel.

This is stated on Obagi's website:
Obagi Nu-Derm System accelerates cellular turnover for skin with moderate to severe sun damage.
Obagi-C Rx System is for brighter, Photolumines skin with mild to moderate sun damage.
Since my skin is fair and sensitive, I went with the RX program. I used Obagi products only the first 18 weeks.
In the mornings, I started with:
Cleansing gel which has Vitamin C and aloe in it. This was my favorite of all the products. I loved this stuff! It made my skin feel so good and didn't dry it out which was something I've always had trouble with mmh/product/beauty/index.vm?procid=13" target=_blank>cleansers doing before.
Second, was the Clarifying serum which has Vitamin C and hydroquinone and that helped with the skin tone. I wrote on here before, I got an added benefit from this product after applying it to my face, I would rub my hands together afterwards, and after a few months I noticed the age spots on my hands were not as noticeable and most were gone.
Third, was the Exfoliating lotion with Vitamins C&E and hyaluronic acid. It made my skin flake (at times) but it did it gently.
Last step, SunGuard SPF 30 which I liked - wasn't greasy!
At night, I used the Cleansing gel again. Followed by the Therapy Night Cream which has Vitamins C&E in it. This was my second favorite product. Loved the way it made my face feel!
As far as time consuming - not for me - just part of my daily routine. I am very happy with the results I've gotten from using Obagi products. I've tried just about everything on my face for sun damage, aging, whatever. I really feel prescription strength products are worth it and in the long run, it's money well spent.

Can I buy Obagi products online without a directory/index.php" target=_blank>doctor's prescription?


Answer
say2themtn, yes you can.
Go to the next page, look for a thread titled OBAGI AND EBAY by tampacountess.
There is a post on there about essentialdayspa.com. I couldn't get it to work when I clicked on it so I did a search for essentialdayspa.com and their website came up.
If you scroll down the list to Obagi and click on it, you'll find lots of info including the regimen for using the Obagi Nu-Derm System. This is the system most use. They have an interesting Forum also. Thanks to freckleface for posting that. Somehow I missed that thread when it first was on here.
TIN LE is another popular seller mentioned often here, also.
Good luck to you!
