 There’s a saying that your eyes are “the gateway to your soul”. No matter the color, the shape, or your age, your eyes attract constant attention. Our eyes are the first things that are noticed by people because they express our feelings and emotions.
Over time, the skin around our eyes tends to show the signs of aging. The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness, or sagginess under the eyes typically begins to appear in our early thirties. Skin care experts agree that these signs of aging can be attributed to your sun exposure, smoking, medications, genetics, and other environmental factors.
The great news is that you can help turn back the clock and fight the signs of aging by using Dr. Obagi’s ZO Skin Health Aggressive Anti-Aging Treatment. The five step regiment includes the Offects Hydrated Cleanser, Offects Exfoliated Polish, Ossential Radical Night Repair Plus, Ommerse Multi-Active Day Moisture, and the Oclipse Sunscreen + Primer. Each step in Dr. Obagis’ ZO Skin Health treatment system is geared to replace damaged skin cells with new and healthy cells so that even deeper lines and wrinkles can be improved or eliminated. This great Obagi set also includes a free 20 minute DVD on Dr. Obagi’s Presentation for PBS called “Fight Aging/Fight Hard!”

 As teen girls begin their trek into womanhood, their bodies will undergo a multitude of changes. Teen girls are faced with hormonal changes which often affect the condition of their skin. Teen boys can also expect a variety of changes to their body and many hormonal surges.
Because of the rise and fall of hormones, teens often experience acne breakouts. For some teens, acne comes in small and sporadic amounts while others will experience massive outbreaks that can result is self-afflicted or peer based isolation. Many over the counter acne products can be very harsh on the teen’s skin. Upon use, some teens report unbearable burning, itching, and stinging sensations which often result in a rejection of the offending products.
Out of frustration, or a lack of awareness, some teens may choose to ignore their acne problems. When ignored, acne outbreaks often develop into painful cysts and can result in permanent scarring on the face.
Obagi has many products available to help combat acne in teens. The ZO Skin Health Offects TE-Pads Acne Pore Treatment make treating acne lesions a breeze. Users of the TE-Pads report that whiteheads melt away and blackheads wipe right off the skin! You can find the ZO Skin Health Offects TE-Pads Acne Pore Treatment available at Skin Gift.

 Acne is a skin condition that plagues many teenagers and even adults in their 30’s and 40’s. Skin care experts say that acne causes unsightly blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed red growths (papules, pustules, and cysts) to form. These growths are typically called “pimples” or “zits.”
Acne is caused when the pores on your skin become clogged by oil, dirt, debris, and bacteria. Once the pores become blocked, whiteheads or blackheads form. When inflammation is deep within the skin, painful cysts may form. If the clogged pore breaks open under the skin, the bacteria will cause red bumps and swelling to form.
No matter what age you are, acne treatment can be frustrating when you endure repeated unsuccessful attempts of eliminating acne with store bought brands, only to have acne return. Acne suffers everywhere can benefit from the many useful acne products that are available from Dr. Obagi. The Obagi CLENZIderm M.D. products take the frustration out of acne treatment.

 Skin care experts report that it is estimated that more than 16 million Americans have rosacea, and most of them don’t even know it!
Rosacea is a chronic facial skin condition that is often confused with acne lesions. People with rosacea have inflammation of the nose, cheeks, eyelids, forehead and chin. Rosacea may appear as skin eruptions that are similar to acne or as prominent spider-like blood vessels. It is not uncommon to see redness and swelling on the face, a stinging sensation on the face, or blood-shot eyes during a rosacea outbreak.
The causes of rosacea are largely unknown by the medical community. You are more likely to develop rosacea if you are between 30 and 50 years old, you blush easily, and are fair-skinned. Women tend to develop this skin condition more often than men, but men who do develop rosacea are typically affected severely.
There is no surefire way to avoid a rosacea outbreak, but skin care experts believe that you can minimize rosacea outbreaks by avoiding exposure to the sun, reducing stress, limit spicy foods, alcohol and hot beverages or other rosacea “triggers.”
The Obagi Rosaclear System has proven to be effective in the treatment of rosacea. The Rosaclear System contains a gentle cleanser that will soothe your skin while removing bacteria and irritating residues. Metronidazole Gel is used for the inflammatory papules and pustules, and the Hydrating Complexion Corrector will protect and moisturize your skin while reducing the appearance of redness. You can get your rosacea under control by contacting Skin Gift today.

Have you ever see someone whose neck and chest looks radically different from their face? The neck and chest may look years older and even appear a completely different color. It’s a dead give-away to someone’s age.
Often this is because this area has been neglected. We forget to put anti-aging creams and SPF below our chins. The skin on the neck and chest is also thinner, more delicate, and contains less oil glands. Now there’s a way to treat this area as well.
Obagi Medical has an easy two-step system called Elastiderm Decolletage to regenerate skin on the neck and chest. This skin is often pigmented from sun exposure and unsightly puckering and lines form on the chest. The first step in the Elastiderm Decolletage System, Skin Lightening Complex, uses hydroquinone to lighten pigment and even out skin tone.
You simply apply morning and night. To accelerate skin turnover, you can mix this product with Retin A at night only. The second step, Wrinkle Reducing Lotion, contains a bi-mineral complex to restore elasticity and build collagen.
Fruit acids turn over dull, dead cells and reveal glowing skin. Apply morning and night. Most people see significant improvement in four weeks. Elastiderm Decolletage will have your chest and neck looking as youthful as your face.
