It’s the same every year, isn’t it? You just get Christmas over and done with and then out of the blue, Valentine’s Day looms on the horizon and the present hunt starts again. There you are, racking your brains for something original to give to your beloved. If it feels like you’re always on an endless search for the perfect Valentine’s gift, luxury skincare could be your perfect solution.
This is a wonderful gift because for one thing luxury skincare will give the recipient relief from their current skin concerns and visibly improve their complexion too. Not to mention that a great skincare product with highly effective active ingredients will preserve the skin and prevent it from damage, scarring and ageing. The effects are longer-lasting, than, say, a box of chocolates that’s already scoffed by the end of Valentine’s.
That’s not all, though, because taking good care of your skin brings the user something else. Skin care is part of self care and taking time to do something for our own well being each day is extremely important. Couple that with the sensory experience of using a luxury skincare product where your skin feels stimulated, nourished and super smooth and it’s the gift that keeps on giving!
So, now you’re sold on the idea, where do you go from here? Fortunately, Obagi® is on hand and with over 30 years of experience in creating clinically proven, results driven skincare, they’re sure to bring a smile to your valentine.
Valentine’s Gift for Her
It’s fair to say that the gift of youthful skin makes it onto most women’s wish list. So why not give your special woman something extraordinary this Valentine’s Day? One of our favourite kits is the utterly indulgent Pure Obagi Antioxidant Kit. Combining highly transformative products, this is the one to give any woman who is concerned about the signs of ageing, and that’s most by the way!
Obagi-C® C-Cleansing Gel is a gentle but deep daily Vitamin C cleanser to clean, clarify and prime the skin optimally to absorb follow-on products. You’ll also find skincare hero, Aloe in this one to hydrate and soften the complexion.
Obagi Professional-C® Microdermabrasion Polish + Mask is formulated with 30% L-ascorbic Acid, currently more than any other Vitamin C product in the industry. It’s a highly effective 2-in-1 formula, containing ultra-fine crystals for exfoliation and a potent infusion of 30% L-ascorbic Acid.
This product leaves skin unbelievably bright and smooth after just one use. And with ongoing use, it noticeably improves skin tone and texture and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Obagi Professional-C® Serum (15%) is a concentrated, luxurious, silky formulation with L-ascorbic Acid, aka the purest form of Vitamin C. This superhero, super-powered ingredient supplies strong antioxidant protection and of course, ensures the signature Vitamin C radiance.
Obagi Hydrate® uses innovative Hydromanil™ technology to form a tight matrix across the skin’s surface and hold in moisture. As clinical trials proved, this must-have hydrator supplies unrivalled moisturisation, improving moisture content for up to 8 hours. That’s all day by the way!
Obagi Sun Shield Matte™ Broad Spectrum SPF 50 prevents sun damage, a primary cause of premature ageing, not to mention malignant melanoma. This weightless SPF offers broad spectrum protection from both UVA and UVB rays.
Using a two-pronged approach, Zinc Oxide deflects the UV rays, while Homosalate and Octisalate absorb and release radiation, ensuring an extra-strength factor 50 level of protection.
If that’s wet your whistle, Pure Obagi offers a multitude of luxury kits to choose from. For the ultimate luxurious skincare collection, check out the bestselling Pure Obagi Ultimate Luxury Kit, a five piece kit to achieve firmness, hydration and target the signs of ageing. Amongst others, this includes the clinically proven Obagi ELASTIderm® Facial Serum which delivers firmer, more resilient skin within 24 hours.
Valentine’s Gift for Him
Treat the man in your life to the Pure Obagi Fierce Men’s Kit for Normal-Oily Skin, containing four remarkable extra-strength products to cleanse, glow, fight and protect.
Obagi-C® C-Cleansing Gel is a powerful daily cleanser, perfect for male skin that contains powerful Vitamin C antioxidants to aid with the removal of impurities and defend skin from nasty free radicals, the unstable cells that cause damage.
Obagi Professional-C® 15% Serum boosts the complexion with a potent infusion of L-ascorbic Acid (15%). This multipurpose wonder ingredient instantly brightens skin and used over the longer term will reduce hyperpigmentation (patchy, darker skin that often develops due to sun-damage or hormonal issues), target fine lines, wrinkles, and crow’s feet, and prevent further damage, all the while, keeping skin looking gloriously healthy and youthful.
Obagi ELASTIderm® Eye Serum uses the properties of Caffeine, well-known for reducing puffiness and ground-breaking ingredient, Bi-Mineral Contour Complex™ Technology, clinically proven to improve skin elasticity. This advanced ingredient promotes a tighter complexion, and visibly diminishes the signs of ageing including fine lines, wrinkles, and crow’s feet.
Obagi Sun Shield Matte™ Broad Spectrum SPF 50 prevents sun damage, probably the primary cause of premature ageing and malignant melanoma in men, who routinely omit this important step. Not anymore with this easily absorbed sunscreen. This formulation is so good for oily male skin too because it also leaves a sheer, matte finish.
