Hi everyone,

Im new to the forum....i've just been lingering and reading all the interesting posts that are out there. I've been on Obagi for about 3 weeks now (stopped for a few days since i'm going to vegas over the weekend and i'm hoping that this will keep me from peeling while im there)

I have a question for you, I purchased Vitamin C 20% with all my obagi stuff because i heard alot of great things about it, but im not exactly sure why we use it. I was told to use it in the morning before applying the clear (after toner) but then in the morning I was also told to use Exoderm Forte which exfoliates. why why apply the vit c if the exo exfoliates the skin after vit is applied? am i making sense? I think i may have confused myself..... Laughing

nice to meet you all!

Welcome!

The best thing would be to call the office that put you on the system. But, if you're like me, you put yourself on things Laughing

I only use Obagi's Clear, Exfoderm and, sometimes, Blender. You could alternate the two products. Sometimes, I put Exforderm on only after I get home from work. I think that's what I'd do if I wanted to use both on the same day.

they actually told me it was optional but i remembered reading up on it and thinking it was cool so i bought it....

according to my derm's instructions i use clear and exo in the mornings and clear, blender and tret in the evenings...i think this is the standard Obagi protocal...

Sorry, don't think my earlier post was very clear.

For best results, use Vit C in the AM. It's not really part of the Obagi protocol it's just an extra product. If yo8u don't need Exfoderm every day, alternate it with Vit C or use Vit C in the AM and Exfoderm when you get home from work.

I have been using Obagi for quite some time. I have not tried the C products in the line because I was told they were not that great. The C products are in addition to your regular regimen. I would contact the place you ordered from for additional info...
