Obagi skin care products are focused on brightening, clearing, and lightening the skin to obtain the healthiest-looking appearance possible. The majority of skin damage, including fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and sun damage occur from not using a proper sunscreen. Many times the skin can look old and even more damaged than it already is when you don't use a moisturizer.
When using treatments such as Hydroquinone and Benzoyl Peroxide for hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and acne, your skin is much more susceptible to sun damage. When your skin is exposed to the sun your hyperpigmentation will darken, your acne will inflame, and your aging skin will become drier and have a more leathery appearance.
Moisturization is a vital step in everyone's skin regimen, no matter what your skin type. Oily, acne-prone skin needs to achieve a balance, otherwise your skin will keep producing excess oil. Dry, aging skin needs nourishment to replenish the hydration lost over the years. With proper use of your skin's ideal moisturizer, you will notice a increase in firmness and elasticity without a greasy or uncomfortable feel.
