Reviews For Obagi Nu-Derm Clear Fx #3 (Hydroquinone-Free Formula)
Easy to apply
Unlike the #5, this day time and night time formula is much easier to apply and has no awful smell. I add it after my Vitamin CE and then add moisturizer and sunscreen. I believe this is helping a bit, but I'll need to finish the full bottle.

The jury is still out
This is my second time using this product. The cream glides on smoothly, absorbs rather quickly, and has no scent. I use it twice a day and have not experienced any peeling of my skin. However, I have yet to see any improvement on two stubborn dark spots on my face. I’m hoping for better results by the time I’m done with this bottle. Otherwise I will not be buying it again.

Obagi
So far I have not seen my discoloration any better and have been using this for about a month. I believe is a bit early so will review in the future.

Not sure its for me
I tried the obagi nuderm line before and found the best improvement the first time I used it years ago, I did not see results this time and it seemed to dry my skin out so much it made the texture look worse. I had to stop using it this time.

Not sure yet?
I am not sure how I feel about the hydroquinone-free Obagi Clear. I was a long time user of the original Obagi Clear and liked they way it worked with my moisturizer and sunscreen, This formula doesn't seem to work as well. Also, I haven't been using it long enough to see if my hyperpigmentation stays at bay.

Still waiting for results
I was expecting a more noticeable improvement after three weeks of use. I will continue and hope for a better result. I have to be careful and apply only to the age spots. Too much product on surrounding skin causes redness.

Not working
Not working. I’ve used it for so many years it stopped at being affective. I need to move onto the one without the FX.

Obagi Nu-Derm Clear Fx (New Hydroquinone-Free Formula)
I have used this product for a couple of weeks morning and night. It is very slowly fading the spots on the backs of my hands. Was hoping it would work faster.

The one with Hydroquinone is better
Honestly been using Obagi for years now. The clear 3 with Hydroquinone was way better than this one. I notice its not clearing my spots up faster than the other version. Bought it again as it will be my 2nd time using it... If no real improvement then need to find another solution. Hate the original one was discontinued. Why folks can't let good things be.

3 Clear
Product is not the same as the one I get from the doctor. Slight change of words for product description. I figured I will just use this one for maintenance and go to my doctor when I need the real deal.

Just ok
I ordered this after a friend said it was her go to for fading age spots. I’ve used it for a while now and would not re order. No significant results. Product doesn’t have a smell, and I like that.

Not working
This product does not work for me. I have stubborn acne scars, and it seems not to help. No changes since I started using it. Compare to the product with the hydroquinone. I would have seen some changes by now. I will give a 3 stars because I love the Obagi products. I will probably have to give it more time.

Results after 6 months of daily use
My dermatologist recommended the Nu-Derm Clear FX to help lighten the hyperpigmentation and sun spots around the corners of my eye and left cheek. She said she uses it daily for the past 5 years, and I can see her skin is really clear and even colored. So I decided to try. What I liked: 1. The product actually works! First 2 months I did spot treatment. While those sunspots never completed faded away, they have gotten lighter. Then after 2 months I spread it all over my face. It really evened out the very minor blemishes from acne scars. 2. Small tube easy to travel with without worrying about product spilling. 3. No weird smell. It''s just very mild and neutral. 4. Does not leave a greasy feel after application. What I DIDN'T like 1. the consistency of the product. It comes out of the jar like elders glue. Its a bit sticky and hard to spread onto the face. It is got this slight thickness to it. It''s definitely not a watery based lotion. 2. The case has no way for you to unscrew the cap. Plus it's a hard case and since it's not a watery consistency. there will be a lot of waste, meaning much won't be able to come out once you run low. It's not like toothpaste where you can push and squeeze more out from the bottom of the tube. Here once you've been using it for awhile and it feels "light" you probably have to just toss it and never know truly how much is left. Those reasons made me give this product 3 stars. Since I've only been using for 6 months and the spots are still there, just slightly lighter, I have to wait for longer period to see if I can bump this to 4 stars.

Mixed feelings
This new formula didn't work as well as the original one. I saw some results, but not as fast and as much as the previous formula.

Encouraged
I can see minor improvement in the large patches of melasma on my face. I realize this is not an overnight process and that it will take time. This is my first prescription, and I ordered the second bottle, so I wouldn’t run out while on vacation. I my sister’s vast improvement to her skin and am encouraged that I will achieve excellent results with the product

Idk if it works
I don't know if this works for my skin at least. The product line is good but this item is not my favorite because I haven’t seen results. Try other products from LovelySkin they are great.

Not as effective without the Hydroquinone
I’ve been using this entire line for over 10 years. I have found that the Hydroquinone free version isn’t as effective as it was before they removed it. I wish I could still get the old version.

Not what I was hoping for
I have used the Clear Fx with Hydroquinone for years. It seemed to work a bit better than this product. Due to the possible side effects I have decided not to use it anymore. This formula isn't as effective. It's a trade off.

Obagi hydroquinone free Clear
I have used the Obagi system in the past and returned to it because I had excellent results. I think that the removal of hydroquinone has negatively impacted the effectiveness of fading brown spots. Brown spots are diminished, but with former use, they were removed by a factor of 98%. I continue to use the product because I have had good results in the overall texture and elasticity of my skin.

Not bad so far!
I do think this is a good product but I was hoping to see results a bit faster. The fact that it does not include hydroquinone does make it safer to use but the process is a bit longer. I was really looking for something that would immediately fade dark spots so I am holding out that I will see results in time but otherwise does smooth the area it is applied to.
