Obagi skin care products are designed to reduce and prevent skin discoloration and harmful UV effects of the skin. Obagi launched its products with the Nu Derm line in the 1980s and the company is still going strong today. The products are only available through a prescription from a doctor or dermatologist. No matter what product line you decide to use, the steps to better looking skin remain the same and will provide a lifetime of benefits.
Step 1
Gently cleanse your face with Obagi Gentle Cleanser or Foaming Gel. Use a circular motion to work product into a rich lather and then rinse with warm water. Pat your face dry with a towel, and avoid rubbing the skin. Do this in the morning or before bed.
Step 2
Apply Obagi Toner to your face with a cotton ball, making sure you cover the entire face. Do not get the toner into your eyes and do not rinse the product off. Do this after cleansing in the morning or evening.
Step 3
Apply Obagi Clear to the face, smoothing it out to the hairline. After two minutes, apply a second coating over any dark or discolored spots on the face. Do this in the morning or evening in conjunction with Steps 1 and 2.
Step 4
Massage Obagi Exfoderm or Exfoderm Forte into the skin using a circular motion until the skin has absorbed all of the cream. Follow this step in conjunction with the steps above, as part of a routine.
Step 5
Apply 1/2g of Obagi Blender mixed with 1/2 to 1g of tretinoin 0.025 percent to 0.05 percent. This will help build and retain skin elasticity and help combat wrinkles and age spots.
Step 6
Apply Obagi Sunfader and Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 every morning before applying your makeup to protect your skin from damaging UV rays and environmental pollutants.
Step 7
Use Obagi Action when you feel that your skin is parched and needs extra moisture. This product is not for daily use, and you should only use it when necessary.
