Zein Obagi, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist who has been in practice more than 30 years, developed Obagi skin care. According to the Obagi Skin website, he is a leading authority in cosmetic dermatology who pioneered the development of products to restore and rejuvenate skin. Obagi recognizes that the skin surrounding the eyes requires special treatment because it is thin, delicate and prone to problems such as puffiness, wrinkles and dark circles.
ELASTIderm Eye Treatment
According to the Obagi Medical website, ELASTIderm Eye Treatment will reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes. A combination of special ingredients in the cream is responsible. Blueberry extract contains antioxidants to combat free radicals that accelerate aging; zinc and copper build collagen and restore elasticity to your skin. Malonic acid, in a patent-pending Obagi formula, stimulates the production of skin cells. Trademarked Obagi penetrating agents deliver these ingredients deep into the skin where they go to work restoring your skin’s youthful glow, reports Obagi Medical. Because of the strength of these ingredients, ELASTIderm Eye Treatment is available only through skin care professionals.
Nu-Derm Eye Cream
Obagi’s Nu-Derm System combats aging caused by the sun’s damaging rays, according to the Obagi Medical website. Obagi claims that the system works at the cellular level to transform your photo-damaged skin and restore it to a healthy, more youthful appearance. Nu-Derm Eye Cream is part of the system. Described by Obagi as a light, moisturizing cream, Nu-Derm Eye Cream specifically combats dryness of the sensitive skin around your eyes and reduces irritation.
ELASTIderm Eye Gel
ELASTIderm Eye Gel provides light, daytime moisture for normal to oily skin types. The Obagi Skin Care website says its product improves skin’s elasticity and produces a firmer, more youthful look. According to Obagi, the eye gel visibly decreases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and replenishes elastin and collagen naturally. Obagi recommends its gel over cream if you live in a humid or tropical climate or if you prefer the coolness and consistency of a gel product.
Olluminate Intense Eye Repair
ZO Skin Health is the newest division of the Obagi skin care line. Zein Obagi, M.D., on the ZO Skin Health website, explains that ZO will meet your needs if you are concerned about the effects of aging on your skin but are not yet ready for prescription treatments. According to the website, Olluminate Intense Eye Repair addresses your concerns about wrinkles, puffiness, dark circles and loss of tone and elasticity in the eye area. ZO Skin Health claims that stabilized retinol and advanced peptides in the Olluminate Intense Eye Repair formula will strengthen your skin to decrease fine lines and wrinkles. Optical diffusers will reduce the appearance of dark circles.
