ZO Skin Health Line
Achieve Healthier, Radiant Skin with ZO Skin Health
ZO Skin Health was created by famed dermatologist, Zein Obagi MD. He is the founder and medical director of ZO Skin Health and the head of the Obagi Skin Health Institute. In the 1980s he popularized the idea of “skin health for the mass market”. He has also published two books titled Obagi Skin Health Restoration and Rejuvenation and its sequel, The Art of Skin Health-Restoration and Rejuvenation.
Dr. Obagi aims to provide a comprehensive range of skincare solutions that restore aging or damaged skin to a healthy state. From correcting sun damage and high pigmentation to protecting against future damage, ZO has you covered. We are delighted to offer this line!
ZO Skin Health takes a straightforward, three-part approach to healthy skin: preparing the skin through cleansing, exfoliating, and toning; addressing and preventing specific skin concerns; and protecting the skin from ongoing damage.

Cleansing, Exfoliating & Toning
Every good skincare routine starts with preparation. ZO offers a range of cleansers suited to different skin types, each designed to normalize the skin and remove surface debris, including:
-
A gentle cleanser blends glycerin and botanicals to cleanse away oil and impurities while leaving skin hydrated and refreshed, suitable for all skin types.
-
An exfoliating cleanser uses micro-beads to remove surface oils and unclog pores, with added vitamin E for antioxidant support, ideal for normal to oily skin.
-
A hydrating cleanser combines glycerin and allantoin to soothe sensitive skin while removing makeup and oils, best for normal to dry skin.
Once the skin is clean, exfoliation helps improve circulation, enhance product absorption, and slough away dead skin cells. ZO’s exfoliating options include a polish that uses magnesium crystals for a smooth, even-toned complexion, and a dual-action scrub designed for acne-prone skin that removes both dead cells and excess surface oil.
Rounding out the prep routine, toning helps control oil, restore pH balance, and soothe dry or sensitive skin. ZO offers moisturized complexion renewal pads, maximum-strength acne treatment pads formulated with 2% salicylic acid, and a calming pH-balanced toner that removes impurities while refreshing sensitive skin.
Prevention & Correction
Once the skin is prepped, ZO’s prevention and correction products go to work on concerns like acne, redness, signs of aging, and uneven skin tone. The line draws on a wide range of active ingredients (including high-potency retinol, alpha hydroxy acids, growth factors, and vitamin C) to address virtually every skin concern.
Highlights from the serum collection include:
-
Daily Power Defense: Strengthens the skin’s protective barrier and defends against environmental stressors.
-
Firming Serum: Targets sagging skin for a more defined facial contour.
-
Growth Factor Serum: Supports skin rejuvenation and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
-
Illuminating AOX Serum: Brightens the skin while protecting against pollution and premature aging.
-
Wrinkle & Texture Repair: Improves texture, firmness, and tone with retinol and antioxidants.
-
Radical Night Repair: An overnight retinol treatment that tackles uneven pigmentation and fine lines.
-
10% Vitamin C Self Activating: Brightens and evens skin tone while smoothing complexion.
-
Instant Pore Refiner: Tightens pores and reduces surface oils for a matte finish.
-
Exfoliation Accelerator: Unclogs pores with glycolic and lactic acid while calming skin with green tea, aloe, and chamomile.
-
Enzymatic Peels: An at-home peel that hydrates and smooths for a brighter appearance
Products are also available in bundled programs for added value, organized by goal, including daily skincare, anti-aging, skin brightening, pigment control, and complexion clearing, among others.
Protection
The final piece of the ZO regimen is protection. ZO sunscreens offer broad-spectrum coverage ranging from SPF 30 to SPF 50, shielding skin from UVA/UVB rays, IR-A rays, and HEV light while guarding against free-radical damage and premature aging.
Options include a dual-action sunscreen and makeup primer (SPF 30), a mineral sunscreen ideal for sensitive or post-procedure skin (SPF 50), a blendable smart-tone formula for most skin tones (SPF 50), a water-resistant daily sheer with hydrating benefits (SPF 50), and a unique sunscreen-and-powder duo with advanced color pigmentation (SPF 45).
Supplementary Products
Beyond the core three-part regimen, ZO Skin Health rounds out the line with targeted products for the eyes, body, and added hydration.
-
The eye collection addresses one of the first areas to show signs of aging, with an intensive retinol eye crème, a brightening crème that targets dark circles and puffiness, and a growth factor serum that plumps and revives the under-eye area.
-
For hydration, ZO offers three crèmes calibrated for different levels of dryness and sensitivity, from a rich recovery formula for moderate dryness and redness, to a lightweight renewal crème for mild concerns, to a hydrating crème with soothing benefits for dry or post-procedure skin.
-
The body care line extends the ZO philosophy beyond the face, with a cellulite-minimizing formula and a multi-action body emulsion that softens, resurfaces, and evens skin tone with retinol.
Finally, ZO’s professional treatment bundles make for an indulgent self-care experience or a thoughtful gift. These at-home peel systems range from mild (Stimulator Peel) to aggressive (ZO 3-Step Peel), with options in between for controlled depth and post-procedure recovery. Use with care, and enjoy your results!
