I have been using the Obagi Nuderm system and am going to have to order more. Does anyone know of any alternatives for Blender or Exfoderm? The products are so expensive I can only afford Clear. |

Obagi alternative. I'll have to check this out being that I use Obagi and it can get expensive.
However, I purchase my Obagi products on ebay from a reputable vendor for a decent price. |

I wonder how long it takes for you to use one set of Obagi Nuderm. For myself, I used one set in about 6 months! |

My wife uses the ZO Skin Health line from Obagi, which is his less medical line. She's had tremendous results. Only downside is that its pretty expensive.
I watched Obagi speak about this at La Costa one time, pretty interesting approach to skin care.
My wife loves it, my wallet doesn't. |

I'm not aware of any Blender alternatives but Exfoderm is a glycolic. Many lines have glycolic serums that would probably work. |

I don't think ejdrew needs help with this any longer. The OP wrote this in 2007. |

While this post might be old it is certainly relevant in todays economy!!
My fav Obagi blender/clear alternative is Lustra AF (SPF 20). Available from Canadian pharmacy. Contains 4% hydroquinone and a mild acid. Now that I'm really on the down-low due to saving for my kitchen remodel I've been using OTC Artra (less then 5 bucks) 2% hydro, aloe, UVA & UVB sunscreens. I just mix them in my hand with Retin A purchased from medsmex. Pretty much the same peeling effect. Girls, don't use this when sanding drywall, the grit has made my face look really bad!! *LOL*
OH yeah, Hi everyone! Long time lurker.
Cheers! KAT |

Hi Kat from Cat.
I have found medsmex.com to be unavailable for about 3 days. The tab says the shop is closed. What is this canadian site? Does it require a px? I'm about to run out of my Renova! Talk about drywall in your face! Help! thanks in advance. |
