Obagi Nu-Derm and moisturizing. Any suggestions?

Asked By:13saffron in Columbus, OH

I'm going to be starting Obagi Nu-Derm, and have read conflicting reports on whether to use moisturizer or not with it. I normally moisturize 2 x day. Some things I've read say not to moisturize, others say definitely moisturize and that it won't delay peeling. If moisturizer prolongs the whole process due to lack of peeling, I don't want to do that. It's just going to be tough to look scary/scaly for the next weeks.
