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.....
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
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... |
