I am tired of the wrinkles and sun spots on my face and have decided to try the Obagi System. I is way out of my budget (divorce and custody battle) so I am hoping to get tips to save some money.
1. Are all the products necessary?
2. The travel set is less expensive but is it a waste in the long run?
3. I am already using Tretinoin 0.01%. Would it work until I run out?

I have been looking around for the best deal I can find but so far Ebay is the best I see. Thanks for your help.

1) I think you'd better use the whole line.
2) when you calculate the price and content of products, the travel set is comparatively expensive
3)Tretinoin 0.01% - should be okay to add in the Obagi system, with the Blender at night

HTH!

Check out the makemeheal web site...from what i have read many use the "poor mans obagi" method...
I am using some of the Obagi line Blender, clear and exfort..but my cleanser, alocohol free toner and sunscreen are not Obagi. You can get the retin-a at a resonable price without script online (I haven't done this but have read about others having success.

IMHO, the whole obagi line is necessary but the amount of product per application can be reduced by about 30% (unless you have a very big face.) I followed the protocol exactly at first but found that i couldn't possibly rub in as much product (esp Blender and Retin-A) as they said to.

The travel size is not a bargain--you get half sizes of everything but Clear
