With a 30-year legacy of science and innovation, Obagi has led transformative research that has met the needs of every skin tone and type.
​
They share our belief that skin care is more than just “correcting” or even “preventing,” it’s about unleashing your skin’s full potential.
That’s why Obagi have developed scientifically backed, clinical formulations to promote healthy, future-facing skin.
Acne
If you have troubled skin prone to breakouts, then you’ve likely heard of salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide, because these are two of the most popular active ingredients used in acne skin care products to help clear up blemishes fast.
​
Salicylic acid is a favourite when it comes to banishing blemishes, because it has the unique ability to clear up by exfoliating and dislodging stubborn skin cells that can clog pores and result in pimples.
​
Benzoyl peroxide helps to exfoliate and remove the buildup of dead skin cells and sebum from the pores. Benzoyl Peroxide does not simply slow the growth of bacteria; it halts it right in its tracks by killing bacteria right away.
Pigmentation
We think freckles are cute, but freckles are to not be mistaken for melasma, which is often the result of long term sun damage.
​
Melasma are patches pigmentation, caused by the over stimulation of melanocytes (the cells that produce melanin and are responsible for a sun tan).
​
Prolonged exposure to the sun (without the appropriate sun protection) can leave our skin with an uneven skin tone and texture and often, premature lines and wrinkles.
​
If you suffer from pigmentation and want to know how an Obagi skincare system can give your skin its glow back, then find out more below or book a consultation with one of our Doctors.
Sun Protection
We all love a good tan, but no tan is a healthy tan.
​
Many of us reserve the SPF for the beach, when we'll be lounging by the seaside for a few hours, but the sun's rays are just as strong whether you're on the beach or in your car.
​
If there's one thing you can do every day to help prevent premature skin ageing, it would be applying a broad spectrum SPF of at least 30, either alone or under your makeup.
Don't forget your neck and ears, as well as your hands, which are actually one of the first areas to give your age away!
