I have only 8 weeks left on the system and I can’t imagine seeing any more improvement then I have.  I am very happy with the look of my skin.  There haven’t been any periods of peeling or dryness in weeks and my skin continues to look fresh and young.

It has been 8 weeks since I started the program and things are going great. Dryness/Slight peeling does show up occasionally but my face looks and feels great. I can actually go without makeup and people compliment me on my skin.

My sister-in-law came in to the spa to get a service and her skin was very tight. She said she couldn’t take the peeling, I didn’t think that it looked bad but she was obviously not thrilled about the flaking and irritation. I encouraged her to get through the six-week rejuvenation process and then the next six weeks of new skin on to the six weeks of maintenance. She did respond very differently then I did to the product. I had Fraxel on 7/24 so I think that might have been why I didn’t have the intense peeling that I had heard does occur in the beginning of the regimen.

My sister-in-law was so blown away by the way my skin looked that she decided to go on the line herself. After the consult with the doctor, she went home with her kit in hand. We have the same type of skin so I can’t wait to see how she does on it.

Today is one of the best days of my life related to my skin anyway. For the first time in my entire life, someone said “Your skin looks great.” I couldn’t believe it. I have struggled with acne my whole life and growing up in Hawaii doesn’t help much with the hyperpigmentation. As I age the spots kept popping up and the hyperpigmentation from the acne doesn’t help either. But today…I was told that My Skin looks Great! I’m hooked.

The last five days have not been bad at all. I do have some redness and minimal irritation but not much peeling until…today. This was the first day people actually commented on the color of my skin and the flaking. Mind you, I work at a spa and they know that I am on the product otherwise I doubt they would have said much. I am using the Bare Minerals foundation to even out the color and hide some of the imperfections and it works great. I had a little breakout but that is normal.

This is my first blog and I am very excited to journal the next 18 weeks of my journey with Obaji. I have started the Condition and Enhance non-surgical program and will document the next 18 weeks of my homecare regimen.

After opening the box, I was pleased at how easy the directions were to follow. The directions are clearly stated on the top of the box with all steps labeled 1-6. There are even pictures of how much product to use because compliance is the key. I have heard some horror stories about the redness, pealing and irritation but I know it will all be worth it in the end. The procedure is simple…AM 1. cleanse, 2. toner 3. clear 4. Exderm Forte 6. SPF 30 PM is 1. cleanse, 2. toner, 3. clear, 5. blender 6, tretinoin cream. VERY SIMPLE! Took my Visia Skincare picture and I am ready to peel
