Obagi Nu-Derm?

[LuluDeren]

Hi Ladies! Anyone ever try that system called Obagi Nu-Derm? I've read some personal journals on this product and the response seems to be good....although there seems to be some vested interest in the subjects who've tried it. So, I'm just wondering if any of you have some experience with it. Thanks Ladies

Hey there,
Been there, done that..........never again!! Of course, everyone is different but I can tell you my experience w/it. I did a full 16 weeks. I used all the products in the nuderm line and also followed the program w/my derm. My face was bright red.........all the time and so much worse while working out. I broke out in cystic acne the whole time (dont have acne except for the occassional pms zit), my face was either really greasy or really dry. It got to the point where I couldnt even smile the right way because my face was so tight. Face peeled the whole time......nasty! If while sleeping, I scratched myself, I woke up with a red, raw, deep mark. Sorry that I cant give you any positives on it........ oh wait, there is one thing that I liked. The clear that you use 2x a day really got rid of freckles, any sun discoloration ect.. I didnt have much of that but bad news again........ once you forgot your sunscreen, you get loaded w/freckles again. All in all, I wasted a ton of money and looked like a freak
A friend of mine did the routine too but she did the slow version of it, but had the same results so she stopped. As you can tell, I dont have a vested interest in this line...lol Im not sure what your looking to do but if you just want brighter, healthier skin I can recommend something. I bought a TCA peel online from platinumskincare.com and I did that once every 6 weeks for 3 cycles and it really helped freshen up my face (does that make sense). I only did 1 layer. Now I just use my regular skin care products and I do a glycolic peel once every few months.

Wow, Bostongirl! Thank you for the detailed information. I have ultra sensitive skin so this sounds like a nightmare. I'll check out the link you provided regarding the TCA peel.

Thanks much!!!
