Apparently there is no .01 % Retin-A cream... only gel. I was told there isn't a .025 % cream either just gel. 
Maybe I should wait a bit and order Obagi brand tetrinoin...

My obagi journey feels like an Obagi farce. (Not because of the product but because of the silly circumstances.) |
callalilly, have you considered ordering Retin A through an online source? You probably could get it cheaper. I have used the Obagi Retin A and it is good. I can't tell any difference between it and any other Retin A I have used! |

Hi Callalily,
My physician prescribed 0.025% retin a cream for me when I first started Obagi. I've since ordered 0.05% from AllDayChemist a few months ago with no problems with my order or with shipping. Hope things are going well! |

Thank you for your answer rileygirl. I did not check the name of the cleanser before posting, but I went back and double checked. I got the
"gentle cleanser", because I asked for the normal/dry skin kit.
When I wash my face with it I feel it dry afterwards, once I put the other products on I feel it great with just some little areas a bit dry, like my under eye lids and corners of my nose.
I am just a bit nervous my skin eventually dries up and wrinkles more, but I will tough it up for the 6 following weeks. |
You're welcome, Margarett. Unfortunately, the dryness is part of the Nu Derm process. I know it can make the wrinkles seem worse, but try your best to "tough it out", and you will be very pleased with your results. After the all important 6 weeks, if you really cannot take the dryness of the cleanser, you can probably use another gentle cleanser and witch hazel for your cleanser/toner combo. Also, Obagi's C cleanser is a "cleanser/toner" in one, so you could try that, but I actually find that one more drying than the Nu Derm gentle cleanser! |

| I was wondering if I could get a professional facial peel. They said I could, but I'd have to stop the Obagi for a couple of days prior. What do you think about that idea?? |
It would probably help a lot. The products will definitely penetrate better, and you may get better results. Just my 2 cents! |
