I was on obagi for probably 10 weeks and then stopped for two weeks because I was having a difficult time getting the trention refilled by my dr.

So after I finally was able to get the rx, I started back on obagi and the redness, peeling, tightness, etc started up again. Grr!

After two weeks passed, the peeling and redness wouldn't go away so I had to stop 4 days prior my sister's wedding and haven't been back on it since.

My husband and I are wanting to starting a family and I want to go back on obagi but I know I cannot. Sad I love obagi but I hate it too. Wish there was a safer way to get the same results.

does anyone know which products from the obagi line are safe to use i.e. cleanser, toner? are there any other products without the chemicals?

how about the obagi C line do they all have chemicals as well

The C range still contains 4%HQ, but it doesn't use retin A. Both these products are not recommended if you intend to start a family.

LuckyLady,
Have you checked into the NIA24 product line? Obviously, check with your doctor before using anything. AND good luck to you and your husband! Smile

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the responses. I only use the facial wash and the sunscreen from the obagi line.

I'm a bit bummed because over the weekend I started to break out very bad on my chin. Is there anything anyone can suggest to keep the acne away?

Kims, thanks for your good wishes. I haven't heard of NIA24 line. Does it give the same results as the obagi?
