First of all clean your face with milk then try these tips: mint leaves half cup grind the, one tea spoon white flour,egg white mix them and apply it to your face for 20-25 minutes once a day only 15 days and get ride of acne and oily skin.

Make a paste of salt in vinegar. Rub it on the pimples. Wash it off after 20-30 minutes with little warm water. Make a paste of neem leaves with turmeric powder. Apply on affected area. Wash it off after 20-30 minutes with lukewarm water. This is a good cure of acne.

wheat grass juice is also good for acne; try this regularly. SandAL wood,rose water,mint juice–mix them and apply on effected area.

Rub garlic paste on effected area.Rose water,boric acid, glycerine. Mix it in the bottle and save. Apply on your face with cotton 5 times a day.

Use these tips with patience but please try these one by one not all together. Always use face wash for face and do’nt use towel. Control your stomach problems; eat salads. vegetables and fruits.

Cheryl,
I’ve had my Clarisonic for almost 5 years. I was gifted it by my daughter who thought it was the perfect item for me who is interested in skin care. It’s a regular unit, has a timer if you want to change the settings, it came with 2 brush heads and a Clarisonic cleanser (which I promptly threw away since I only use Obagi). I use it once a day in the evening with either the Obagi Gentle Cleanser or the ZO hydrating cleaser. I also have found that the brush for sensitive skin works better for me. As for powerful, I think all the units are the same. Check around for good prices. Many websites offer free s&h, even a discount. My Clarisonic works as well after 5 years of constant use as it did on Day 1. I find that not only is my skin clean, but my ZO products seem to work much better on the clean face.I clean my brush weekly in a solution of 1/2 peroxide/1/2 water and change the brush about every 4 months.

When I took the “Skin Age Test” I also found that my skin was younger than my current age. But what I really found helpful were the personalized answers about my diet and what foods will help improve my skin’s overall health and appearance, such as foods with vitamins A, C and E and foods with Omega-3 fatty acids. Hands down the personalized skin care regime was the best part of the test, since I have a hard time figuring out what products I need to use. Love the Offects Exfoliating Cleanser.

Thank you Dr. Obagi for developing Obagi NuDerm and ZO Skin Health!

I took your new skin test and it’s certainly marvelous to look over ten years younger than you really are. When you are about to be 59 and you look 46, you must be doing something right.

Thanks to you, Dr. Obagi and all of your talented Staff for performing such an outstanding job and maintaining such high standands in QC and client care and satisfaction.

Sincerely,
Anne

I answered the questions and found out my skin was actually younger than my current age. Awesome personalized answers to my skin issues. Thank you very much. I like Obagi skin products.

I obviously totally misread Dr.Obagi’s opinion of the Clarisonic facial cleasnser and at least I will hand on to mine, which I will use alternately with the Exfoliating Polish.

I still maintain that I need to customize the amount and timing of the Clarisonic’s use to suit my own skin type.

I will commend it for it’s thorough cleansing of makeup and the exfoliating properties it masters cleanly in a minute’s time, especially if you are experiencing any flaking.

Apologetically,
Anne

Comment on Skincare. Use It or Lose It by Anne

Hi there! Anything containing antioxidants, such as a serum whether it’s Obagi Professional Vitamin C or someone elses serum will turn darker with exposure to air amd light. That’s just it’s nature or “mother nature” in action.

I happen to use Obagi Professional 20% Vitamin C and I use the following technique with ALL serum products which are dispensed through the means of dropper bottles which I learned as a medical technologist in Blood Bank.

After dispensing your serum that you need as you replace the cap back on the bottle of serum, squeeze the black bulb and hold it depressed as you re-insert the glass dropper back into your bottle of serum before you screw the cap of the serum bottle tightly closed.

This helps to cut down on excess air and also to avoid having serum remain within the glass dropper along the remaining outside air.

Don’t know that this will be of any help but I thought I would pass it along.

Thank you Dr. Obagi for the information guide.

Hi. I don’t know which product you’re referring to, but I’m guessing that it’s a product by Obagi Medical Products that contains hydroquinone. These products are very sensitive to light and air, so will discolor with exposure–even if you accidentally leave the cap off. We would not recommend your using any product that has discolored. It may not be damaged, but it may have lost potency.

I am glad that I came across with this post because I have just found my Obagi serum changed its color and I was wondering if it was safe to use.
The color of the serum has gone a lot darker. I believe I bought it about 6 months ago. Do you think I should stop using it?
