Skin Care Review: Obagi-C Exfoliating Day Lotion

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
Skin exfoliation with vitamin C

Drawbacks
Wrinkles deepened and increased; skin thickened.

Details
Intended to exfoliate, my skin became thick after using this product. Wrinkles appeared which had not been on my face prior. Using the MD recommended moisturizer seemed unable to penetrate the thick, dry skin. The skin on my face made me look 10 years older! Some peeling occurred but skin remains thicker and more wrinkled than before I started using the product. I look worse now than before starting the treatment.

The dermatologist prescribed the use of Ogagi-C Day Lotion, Night Therapy Cream, and the Skin Lightening Serum with vitamin C. I used these products for several months. I also used Z-Silc with SPF30 as a moisturizer. This sunblock worked well on my skin before using the Obagi-C products. Now, it can barely penetrate to moisturize.

Conclusions
The product may work for some people. It did not work for me or my skin.
