Recharge skin overnight with Retinol 0.5 and Hydrate Luxe

This luxurious duo works hard overnight to rejuvenate skin while you sleep. 

The Retinol 0.5 (Vitamin A) is your active skin rejuvenating product. Effective, yet gentle enough for most people to apply each night, this treatment speeds up the skin's cell turnover, minimizing fine lines, refining the complexion, and giving skin a smoother texture. 

The Hydrate Luxe is, as the name suggests, a luxuriously rich moisturiser which is perfect for drier or older skins for use as a night cream - especially during the colder winter months when skin may need an extra moisture boost. This innovative moisturiser has been designed to work best at night, in accordance with your skin's natural bio-rhythms for repair. Hydrate Luxe locks moisture deep within the skin, lasting well into the next day. Apply it after the Retinol to wake up with soft, nourished, more beautiful skin.

Combat eye wrinkles and revitalise lashes with ELASTIderm and ELASTILash 

The ELASTIderm products are patented, targeted products to give you younger looking skin in the delicate eye area. You can choose between the rich, moisturising eye cream or the serum which glides on with a roller ball (great for combatting puffy morning eyes!). For best results, use your ELASTIderm twice daily for noticeable reduction in fine lines and improvement in skin texture. 

ELASTILash is an amazing product for boosting the health of your eyelashes. The product works to naturally improve the thickness of your lashes - which gives an illusion of more length too. It's a great option for everyone to make the most of their lashes, but particularly if you have found your eyelashes are weaker, perhaps due to regular makeup use and removal or eyelash extensions treatments.

Powerful Vitamin C antioxidants and the best quality sun protection you can use every day

The Obagi Professional-C Serums are amongst our best-sellers. Once our clients have discovered the antioxidant power of these luxurious serums they won't be without it! 

Created from powerful vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), the C Serums are available in strengths of 15% (for normal/dry skin) and 20% (for slightly oilier skin). This concentration of Vitamin C is unique to Obagi - it's much higher than other skincare companies can offer.

Benefits of Professional-C:

• Boosts skin rejuvenation and acts like mild exfoliant for smoother, brighter skin
  
• Helps improve skin protection from UV and environmental damage 
  
• Moisturising
  
• Anti-inflammatory - helps combat blemishes 

The Obagi Sun Shield Matte in SPF50 is top quality sun protection which can be used daily in your morning skincare regime to protect against sun damage and the ageing it causes. It is a full broad spectrum block protecting your skin from UVA and UVB rays (not many creams do this).

​Sun Shield Matte is richly moisturising yet non-greasy, sinking into the skin. You can use it as a moisturiser in the morning and apply make-up over the top if you wish. It also carries the Skin Cancer Foundation's Seal of Recommendation.

Advanced environmental damage protection and 8 hour moisturiser

A winning combination for those of us who need daily environmental protection yet with some added moisture through the winter months. 

We have included the Professional-C Serum (in your choice of 15% or 20% strength) as above, and the super Sun Shield Matte.

We have added the Hydrate moisturiser to this (a less rich formulation than the Hydrate Luxe) which is suitable for all skin types.

​The beauty of Hydrate is that it can be applied whenever you feel your skin needs some moisture and is completely non-greasy or clogging.

A little goes a long way with this product since it gradually delivers moisture deep into the skin for 8 hours. You'll see improved texture, minimised fine dehydration lines, a glow and real softness from within the skin. ​ It feels light yet provides super-effective moisturisation.

Caring for sensitive skin with care

For those of us who struggle with sensitised, easily upset skin this bundle is designed to leave skin clean, calm, and soft helping to reduce irritation. 

The Gentle Cleanser is from the Nu-Derm system but can be used as a wonderful cleanser for sensitive and/or drier skin. It is a fragrance-free delicate gel - a little goes a long way mixed with warm water - and leaves skin beautifully clean and soft without causing any trauma.

The Sun Shield and Hydrate are also winners for sensitive skin since the first is very moisturising while being effective sun protection, and the second is incredibly gentle and helps your skin to retain moisture over the course of the day, therefore assisting its natural barrier function.
