How Was Obagi Founded?

Obagi Founded

Obagi Medical is now one of the biggest names in the skincare game. Backed by science and driven by innovation with intelligently formulated, result-driven products. Just one of the many reasons Obagi has earned its much-deserved cult and celebrity following. 

Dominating nearly every aspect of skincare, with a product line that covers just about all of your daily skincare needs, there is a diversity to this brand that makes it a go-to for consumers globally. But as with all brands, they didn’t start this way. So what is Obagi’s story?

When was Obagi founded?

With its revolutionary, forward-thinking and game-changing skincare formulas it is hard to imagine that the story of Obagi actually began in 1988, a true 80’s baby. With 30 years of skincare development under their belt, Obagi has made leaps and bounds in their skincare lines, developing a multitude of products and skincare lines under the Obagi umbrella over the years. 

Obagi Nu-Derm Fx® System

The Obagi Nu-Derm Fx® System is the main product line in the Obagi range, and there is no surprise why. The launch of this targeted range has stood the test of time, with the skincare line able to be adapted to suit either Normal to Dry skin, and Normal to Oily skin. Regular use of these products helps to dramatically improve the signs of hyperpigmentation whilst simultaneously brightening the skin and clarifying for an all over glowy complexion. This easy-to-use skincare line is also numbered with the ideal order of use, with each bottle indicating whether to use morning or night. This range really is a universal treasure that your complexion will thank you for, and a cornerstone for the Obagi brand.

Obagi ELASTIderm®

Obagi ELASTIderm®, one of Obagi’s hero skincare lines, specifically targeting the delicate skin around the eyes, was brought to our bathroom cabinets in 2007. Patented with its game-changing anti-ageing Bi-Mineral Contour Complex™. This skincare line hit the ground running and hasn’t slowed down since. One of the newest, standout products that has blessed our skin from this Obagi line is the ELASTIderm® Facial Serum. In one study, 97% of users reported that their skin feels more elastic and resilient. They also saw a diminished appearance of crepey facial skin. This product launch is definitely a milestone in the story of Obagi and brings the power of ELASTIderm® ingredients to the face, neck and décolletage.

Obagi CLENZIderm M.D.™

2007 was a magical year for Obagi, with their skincare range expanding once again with the launch of Obagi CLENZIderm M.D™ Daily Care Foaming Cleanser. When this launch hit the shelves, skincare addicts with normal to oily skin experiencing breakouts  and blemishes buzzed with excitement. Obagi changed the game once again with 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA), its active formula will unclog pores and wash away dead skin cells, while menthol helps to cool irritated skin. This product is now a beauty must-have in skincare routines globally.

After this, 2012 – 2014 saw the launch of a best-seller Obagi Hydrate®, the staple product Obagi Sun Shield Matte™ Broad Spectrum SPF 50, and a kit designed for those in their 20-30s, the OBAGI360® System. A busy few years for the Obagi brand.

SUZANOBAGIMD™

The latest expansion to the Obagi line is SUZANOBAGIMD. In 2018 Obagi Medical partnered with world-renowned dermatologist Dr. Suzan Obagi with the goal to “marry time-honoured, medical-grade formulas with naturally sourced ingredients”. Name a more iconic duo.

What makes this yet another leap forward for the Obagi Medical skincare ranges, is the formula’s purposeful exclusions, as well as the powerful ingredients carefully selected. This perfect balance has led to a skincare line that can be used by every skin type; from young patients with acne-prone skin, to older patients with a delicate and sensitive complexion. This new product launch from Obagi has universal products that can reveal healthier-looking, more radiant skin as standalone products, or as a customised combination to meet your individual skincare needs.
