Here are some instructions just to
keep in mind while using Obagi Condition and Enhance kit.

rinse with lukewarm water, avoid rubbing with towel

apply to entire face- Do not rinse
- Clear-
Use AM/PM (topical treatment that 4% of hydroquinone to reduce hyper

amounts and apply evenly to entire face, extending to hairline and over
the ears*Avoid contact with eyes*
- Exfoderm

- Blender-
USE PM only- Rx treatment that contains 4% hydroquinone to target hyper

ingredients of the system. Measure 1/2 gram approximately 1
pea-sized amount of Blender- Apply around the eye area avoid corners
of lips and corners around nose
- Tretinoin- PM only,
Great to use in conjunction with Blender. Start using the Tretinion twice
a week at night for now. "Blend" the Tretinoin with the
"blender"- pea size. But if you do use it together avoid
the eye area.
- SPF-
super important- use daily- avoid the sun if you can while using this
product. Sunfader SPF use daily and/or any other SPF by Obagi.
If you notice your skin is really
starting to peel in excess then you need to reduce the use of the Tretinoin.
