{"product_id":"c-exfoliating-day-lotion","title":"Obagi Medical - C-Exfoliating Day Lotion","description":"\u003cp\u003eA light day cream that simultaneously hydrates and gently exfoliates, for skin that looks dull and no longer reflects light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDull skin is usually not a matter of a lack of care, but of a layer of dead skin cells that lingers for too long. These cells do not lie flat; they scatter light, which you perceive as a sallow complexion. Glycolic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid, loosens the bonds between these old cells so they shed naturally. In addition, it contains ascorbyl glucoside, a more stable form of vitamin C that is slowly converted in the skin to help even out the complexion, and sodium hyaluronate to retain moisture, ensuring the exfoliation doesn't leave your skin feeling dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture is a thin, smooth lotion that absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky under makeup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor dull, uneven, or somewhat rough skin. Also great for combination to oily skin that wants hydration without a heavy cream. If you have very sensitive or easily reddened skin, it is better to start every other day and build up usage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce a day, in the morning, after cleansing and toning. Use one or two pea-sized amounts for your entire face and massage in gently. Always follow with a sunscreen with a high protection factor: alpha-hydroxy acids make your skin more sensitive to the sun, even for a week after you stop using them. Without sun protection, you are simply working against the results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not use it in the same application as another acid or retinol. Choose one active product per session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA word of advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe biggest pitfall with acids is enthusiasm. People see that their skin looks smoother after ten days, decide that more is better, and start layering with a scrub or a second acid. Two weeks later, I am faced with red, sensitive skin that reacts to everything, and then we lose a month rebuilding that barrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, do less than you feel like doing. Once a day, this product only, and let time do its work. Your skin renews itself in about four weeks, so expect a month before the complexion looks noticeably more even.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuestions about whether this fits your skin, or about how to combine it with the rest of your routine?
