Description
Obagi Nu-Derm Blend Fx is a hydroquinone-free brightening cream from the Nu-Derm Fx system. It is formulated with arbutin, a nature-identical brightening ingredient and antioxidant, to help visibly diminish the look of uneven skin tone and dark spots for a more even complexion.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) add antioxidant support, while lactic acid and TEA-salicylate gently exfoliate to help reveal brighter, clearer-looking skin.
