What is the Obagi ELASTIderm® Anti Aging Treatment?
This exciting product from Obagi is designed to smooth fine lines and wrinkles on your face, especially around the eyes. It is an extension of Obagi’s product and together they are a powerful solution to your aging skin problems. Results appear very quickly after just 1 to 2 weeks of consistent daily use and depending on your unique skin type. It’s unique formula replenishes elastin which tones and firms the skin resulting in a younger looking appearance.
Ingredients
Obagi ELASTIderm® claims to be the best anti aging treatment for stimulating collagen and elastin production. It contains a patented bi-mineral complex which works by replenishing the elastin and stimulating the production of collagen. This bi-mineral complex is combined with several antioxidant-rich minerals, including blueberry extract which is a proven agent for targeting toxic free radicals.
Application Instructions
Apply the Obagi ELASTIderm® cream each night before your bedtime. You will wake with dewy soft, refreshed skin each morning. I tried the product in the morning and found that it is effective throughout the day; however, it felt better when I applied it at night. Many daytime products contain a formula mix is designed to protect and revitalize the skin during the day, including SPF and a different mineral complex. Remember that a little bit goes a long way so apply just a bit to your face, especially around the eyes, and then remove any excess. A thin layer will absorb quickly into the skin leaving a light sheen which locks in moisture through the night.
Importance of Elastin
Elastin is a critical component of toned, youthful looking skin. It allows the skin to return to its normal state after being pinched or poked. Elastin also helps regulate blood flow by acting as a medium for pressure in arteries. As we age, our elastin depletes and our skin tends to sag and wrinkle. Many products contain elastin which is one of the best anti aging treatment ingredient as it helps to boost this aging problem. The higher concentration of Obagi’s bi-mineral complex will provide support much faster than most of the best anti aging products on the market.
Our Experience
Carole and I both used the Obagi ELASTIderm® Anti Aging Skin Treatment for about 30 days. We followed the instructions to apply a thin layer each night. At the beginning, we did feel a slight tingling feeling which indicated to us that the product was working. Like we advised for the Retinol Progression Kit, I recommend that you apply the cream about 30 minutes before going to bed as it takes time for it to absorb. You don’t want to jump into bed and have the cream wipe off on your pillow or sheets! By day 15, my skin was much smoother and didn’t dry out half has much as before I started using the product. Carole had some fine wrinkles above her lip and by day 15, they were gone. Both our faces appeared smoother and even had a brighter complexion. By day 30, the skin around our eyes and lips had greater resilience and strength. Carole continued using the effective anti aging skin treatment for almost another month to eliminate some last annoying lines around her eyes.
The Obagi ELASTIderm® Treatment will give you the results you want in a very short period of time. Your skin will be smoother and more evened out. This cream does much more than eliminate wrinkles. It will strengthen, firm, and brighten your skin. Try the Obagi ELASTIderm® Anti Aging Treatment on your own skin and we are sure you will love it as much as we do.
