14 DAY TRIAL // It's always best to have a good ally in the fight against time and, in this particular case, against the aging of the skin. While they do say aging is a natural process that should be dealt with in as natural a manner as possible, having something to fall back upon in case that should not happen always counts as a plus. Introducing Ossential Radical Night Repair from dermatologist to the stars, Zein Obagi - the one night skin smoother that aims to go where no other skin cream has gone before.
Boasting ten times more pure retinol than other established brands, the Ossential Radical Night Repair works not only on the surface, but goes deep within the skin to remove wrinkles, lines and dark spots. However, it wouldn't be called "magical" if its effects stopped short here. Ossential is also said to nourish the facial skin back into its former glory, thanks to a complex of vitamins and natural extracts that are bound to make it radiant and firm, just like it was at 20. It's not really a miracle, the doctor insists, "it's just the way that nature intended."
Its time-release formula guarantees that the skin will not only be finally free of all the marks of the passing of time, but also that it will remain that way for a long time to come. In other words, Ossential Night makes wrinkles go away as if they never were there - and makes sure they don't come back by stimulating the production of collagen. The vitamin C and E, along with the Crithmum Maritimum Marine Extract and the Bisabolol (the last two being natural ingredients), work towards ensuring healthier skin, free from acne and the troublesome oiliness present especially after a certain age.
If all of the above sounds a bit too complicated, fret not, because it's not. Even more, the Ossential smoother begins to work the moment it is applied, which you should notice once you start to feel a tingling and warming sensation on the skin of your face and neck. However, doctor Obagi warns that, should irritation set in and persist, although chances for this to happen are small, all use must be discontinued altogether until seen by a dermatologist.
The night cream may also increase sensitivity to sunrays but, given its totally revolutionizing effects in terms of fighting the signs of old age, this is probably a risk most women would take without a second thought. Add to that the $325 price tag (for the 1.7 Fl. Oz. container) and its rather limited availability at the moment (only at select Nordstrom stores, Fred Segal and ZO Skin Health) and you'd better pray that the dermatologist is completely honest when he speaks of "isolated cases."
