Obagi Week 9
Since I've stopped using the GM Collin Vitamin C serum. I've stopped getting these oil build ups under my skin. I was wondering why they kept popping up. I hadn't had it happen the last time I used Obagi in 2008. I thought maybe with my age and hormonal changes this was the reason they were on my face. My face is currently healing from some of those oil build ups. I should have just bought the Obagi vitamin C serum 20% in the first place. Picture was taken at the end of week 9.

Obagi - Week 8
I just ordered more supplies. I ordered the cleanser and exfoderm forte (I am currently using the exfoderm) and the gel cleanser off of ebay. I haven't found better pricing on these items online than on ebay. I also ordered the clear and blender from obagiclear.com.
I am almost out of my g.m. collin vitamin c so I've decided to order the 20% Obagi Vitamin C Serum instead. I still have a lot of toner, trentinoin and sunscreen. But will have to reorder soon.
My skin isn't peeling as much anymore. But I am still having oil pockets pop up on my forehead and cheek area's. They kind of pop, turn red and then build up a little more oil under the scab and then heal. When I reorder the tretinoin I am going to move up to the 0.1%. (My current 0.1% has expired.)
When I use the exfoderm my face is no longer red. I'm glad my skin is starting to get used to the products.
I don't think the Obagi eyelash grower is working. I've been using it everyday since I started Obagi. I don't see a difference. I'm going to try Latisse.

Obagi - Week 7
September 12th - Mid way through week 7
My skin has been trying it's best to break out. I've had a few bumps flare up but they haven't turned into pimples. The pimples I did have on my forehead a few weeks ago have almost heeled and the scars are fading. *my daughter is back from Alaska with that so is the good camera. I will add better pictures in the near future.
I've taken a break from the exfoderm for a few days. My in-laws are in town this week and we are running all over town. I'd rather not be out to dinner with a super peeling face. Still peeling pretty good around my cheek and chin area. The corners of my mouth are no longer cracking and red. Still using all the products (except the exfoderm) daily, as well as the blender and trentinoin 0.05% every night.
About to order more supplies found a more reputable site www.obagiclear.com the site is secure. Plus they have a facebook page that people can leave feedback on. Which makes me feel better about ordering it on-line.

Obagi - Week 6
Thursday, September 6th
Ugh, well I have a problem I like to pick at these little oil pockets on my cheek area. Now with the Obagi the oil has become too hard to pick out. I should have left them alone. Now I have 5 scabs on my face from trying to pick at it. :P Stupid period.Other then that my skin is peeling, a lot. Around noon my face looked like a shedding lizard. Big scale like pieces were coming off from under my eyes all the way down past my chin. When I wear dark colors my clothes are usually covered in dead skin. Really gross. This is about the point that I have to bring a wash cloth and my Obagi cleanser to wash my face off during lunch. Then reapply the sunscreen. Still can't wear makeup. When I try to apply it my skin starts to roll off my face in little chunks.
