Antioxidant Sun Protectors
Daily exposure to ultra-violet rays causes photo aging: dry, thin or yellowed skin, lines, wrinkles and pigmentation spots. Our protectors contain anti-UVA and UVB solar filters, which are effective in protecting the skin from UV rays. They are enriched with antioxidants, vitamins and moisturizers.
Enriched Moisturizers
Use of a Pro-Derm™ Moisturizer deeply hydrates the skin, improving its tone and elasticity. Enriched with antioxidants, polypeptides, vitamins and essential oils, Pro-Derm™ Moisturizers help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Exfoliants
Pro-Derm™ Exfoliants contain Glycolic Acid, and AHA from a natural source, which retexturizes the skin, revealing its radiance and making the pores look smaller. Combined with moisturizers, Glycolic Acid reduces signs of aging, restores skin suppleness and smoothness.
Skin Lighteners
Repeated or extended exposure to ultra-violet rays, heredity and hormonal factors may cause some people to develop brown-pigmented spots. With high concentration of non-neutralized vitamin C (MAP and or L-Ascorbic Acid), Pro-Derm™ Skin lighteners help reduce signs of hyperpigmentation. Their regular use assures a uniform and glowing complexion.

The staying power of the minerals is so great that they rarely need a tough-up during the day. And because these silky feeling are water resistant, they will not crease or smear even during the most strenuous exercise.
This make-up line is:
- comedogenic, will not block pores
- virtually no allergy risk
- broad spectrum UVB and UVA protection up to SPF 20
- anti-inflammatory
- helps calm and soothe irritated skin
- complete coverage for skin conditions like acne, rosacea and redness following treatments like chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing
- contains no fillers
- composed of inert minerals that cannot support bacteria
- environmentally aware and not tested on animals
OBAGI SKIN HEALTH SYSTEM
(http://www.obagi.com/article/forpatients/forpatients.html)
Overtime, normal aging and damage from environmental factors such as sun, stress and pollution cause skin to lose its ability to renew itself. Cells turnover slows, causing the dead skin layer on the surface of the skin to thicker, which slows the flow of moisture from within. This results in dry uneven skin texture.
Daily exposure to sunlight causes the amount of pigment in each cell to increase, producing freckles or age spots and uneven skin tone. Collagen elastin begin to breakdown, causing the skin to lose its resilience, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles and sagging.
The Obagi Skin Health System, which must be prescribed by a qualified physician, penetrates below the skin’s surface, at the cellular level, to correct damage in all layers of the skin. Dead skin cells are replaced by fresh cells that are pushed to the skin’s surface, making the skin surface smoother and naturally hydrated. Freckles and age spots disappear. Pigment cells (melanin) are evenly distributed, preventing the appearance of new freckles and age spots. The skin becomes richer in collagen and elastin, promoting resilience and firmness.
