Professional Tips
This SPF is an essential step in any Obagi treatment regimen — especially when using brightening actives like Arbutin, AHAs, or Vitamin C, which can increase photosensitivity. Skipping sunscreen while using these ingredients can undo results and cause further pigmentation. Apply every single morning without exception.
