Extensive scientific testing proves Obagi Nu-Derm System Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 is an effective UVA/UVB sunscreen

LONG BEACH, Calif., Oct. 26, 2004 - Obagi Medical Products (OMP, Inc.) announced today that its Obagi Nu-Derm System Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 sunscreen has won the Skin Cancer Foundation's "Seal of Recommendation." The Skin Cancer Foundation awarded its Seal of Recommendation based on its own analyses of scientific tests. The analyses concluded that Obagi Nu-Derm Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 effectively prevents sun-induced skin damage by screening out UVA and UVB exposure. To qualify for the Seal, the sunscreen had to meet stringent criteria and high standards set by the Foundation's Photobiology Committee.
