The first review written for this product on MakeUpAlley was 18 years ago... wow. I was lucky to get this Obagi Exfoderm product for 40% off, but it was still a steep $54! It's for dark spot...

The only reason I give this product a 1 is because it caused an allergic reaction, I broke out in hives all over my face and it caused redness and itching. I started the Obagi NuDerm system on Feb...

This was a definite no-go for me. I started the Obagi system using only Retin-A, then added Blender a week later, and finally added Clear about a week after that to give my skin time to adjust. My...

I seemed to have peeled less using this in combination with the Retin A (originally I just used Retin A by itself). I use the Exfoderm Forte in the morning and Retin A at night. However, I do...

Exfoderm is step #4 in the Obagi skin care system. This is a very mild and oil free formula, similar in feel and texture to Kinerase cream. However, this lotion does contain phytic acid which is a...
