Amazing
My skin is brighter and less dark spots after only 10 days!

Triggered irritation; foul scent reaction on me
I finished a course of Tri-Luma and started tretinoin 0.05%. After a few weeks of using the tretinoin alone, I mixed in this Blend Fx per the instructions. After the first night, I woke up with some redness and irritation, similar to when I first started using Tri-Luma before adjusting to it. I suspect that I am as sensitive to arbutin as I am with the hydroquinone in Tri-Luma, so an adjustment period with pre-moisturizing was warranted for me. Also, the cream itself has little scent by itself, but as with a few other reviewers, it produces a foul odor (like foot odor, or old fish) when mixed with tretinoin on my skin. I've never experienced anything else like it. It faded away as it dried down, so I thought I could deal with it, but after a few days, I simply could not tolerate the ritual, given the redness and irritation I was also experiencing. I will be looking for another option.

FABULOUS FIND !
This product is for every woman who doesn't have a perfect complexion. It lightened and even eliminated many skin spots that age and life has left on my face and neck. And, it even lightened the circles under my eyes. A little drop used once or twice a day goes a long way and left me so satisfied with my new look !!

awesome
I usually mix with my tretinoin. One bottle goes 1 year, little bit is enough for my evening skin care. I love it.

Obagi Blender FX
I used to use Blender with Hydroquinone long time ago and it did wonders. Now I'm back to using Obagi Nu-derm system again just with FX and this one is the last I tried. So far so good. Not as good as the original but would rather get this if it doesn't have long or short-term side effect as the hydroquinone based. Can be used long-term if that's the case. 4 stars for now until it's proven.

New formula works like old so far
I like that this formula is now hydroquinone-free and hoped it worked as well. I am mixing this with my Retin A for boosted results.

Adjunct to tretinoin cream
I have started to faithfully use this product in the pm with tretinoin cream on the recommendation of my plastic surgeon. Excellent results but initially slow to come.

Money saver
I have only been using for a week which is not likely enough time to notice a big difference in my skin. HOWEVER, I have lots of positive to share. First, I didn't notice a bad smell as another reviewer noted. That's a plus! haha The first time I used it, I used the normal amount of my Retin-A gel (a pea-size blob) with equal amount of Blend Fx. It covered my entire face, neck and cleavage area. It took quite some time to massage it until completely absorbed as directed. I cut both products back to half that amount and confirmed the effectiveness would not be effected. Score! Not only will this product last me FOREVER, but the lifespan of my Retin-A just doubled.

A little goes a long way!
I love Obagi products in general. A clean way to skincare and works! I can't decide if I like #5 or #3 better? Both are fantastic!

Obagi Nu-Derm Blend Fx
This stuff smells awful. I have to hold my breathe while spreading this on my face! I am using it as directed, blending it in with my prescription tretinoin, hoping to avoid using hydroquinone with this formula. I have only used it for two weeks but have high hopes that this will make my tretinoin more effective and also lighten dark spots on my skin. Recommended by my esthetician!

Worthless
I used this product as suggested (in combination with Obagi 1% retinol) and saw no reduction in brown spots on my face. I do not recommend it. I used both products on a regular basis (and until empty) and saw no results.

Obagi Blend
I have used Obagi Blend for over 40 years mixed into my retinol product. It is easily absorbed into my skin and is non-greasy. It helps the retinol penetrate into a deeper level of my skin where it works better.

So far so good
It's only been a month but seeing small signs of improvement in dark ages spots. Using blender with retinol every night. Hoping for more results over the next few months.

Love it!
My skin is brighter and looks amazing! I am in my 40s, and my face looked old and tired from years of sun worshiping. I am in my second week of using this and am amazed by the way my skin looks right now.
