Barrier-strengthening antioxidant serum with ZPOLY, ZORR, DNA-repair enzymes and micro-dose retinol.: Frequently Asked Questions
Why did ZO change the Daily Power Defense formula?
The 'Next-Generation' upgrade is a massive clinical improvement. The original formula contained a trace amount of retinol. Dr. Obagi removed the retinol and added the proprietary ZPOLY™ complex to make DPD a pure, uncompromising barrier repair serum. This allows you to use DPD as a soothing base layer underneath high-strength ZO retinols without compounding the irritation.
Is this considered a moisturizer?
No. Daily Power Defense is a highly functional, corrective barrier serum. While it does provide lightweight hydration to strengthen the skin's lipid barrier, clients with exceptionally dry skin will still want to layer a traditional hydrator (like ZO Hydrating Crème or Renewal Crème) over the top of it.
Can I use this with Vitamin C?
Yes, they work perfectly together. While DPD contains the ZOX12® antioxidant complex, layering a dedicated Vitamin C serum underneath it will provide maximum environmental protection and brightening benefits.
How does it act as a 'Retinol Buffer'?
If you apply a harsh retinol directly to bare skin, it causes a rapid, aggressive inflammatory response. By applying Daily Power Defense to the skin first, you create a fortified, healthy barrier. Applying the retinol over the DPD slows its absorption slightly, delivering the anti-aging benefits while significantly minimizing the 'retinol uglies.'
Is Daily Power Defense good for acne-prone skin?
Yes, it is highly recommended. It is completely non-comedogenic and ultra-lightweight. Furthermore, active acne is an inflammatory condition. The ZPOLY™ complex in DPD is specifically engineered to reduce visible inflammation, helping to calm active breakouts and support a healthy skin barrier.
How often should I apply it?
For optimal results, Daily Power Defense should be applied twice daily—every morning and every evening—immediately after cleansing and toning (the ZO 'Getting Skin Ready' step), and before any other correctives or sunscreens.
Is the Next-Generation formula safe for pregnancy?
Yes! Because the Next-Generation formula officially removed the retinol, it is now widely considered safe and highly beneficial for use during pregnancy and nursing to maintain barrier health. (As always, consult your healthcare provider when starting new skincare regimens).
Are WeDoSkin.ca ZO products authentic?
Yes. ZO Skin Health is a strictly physician-dispensed brand. WeDoSkin is a fully Authorized Canadian Clinical Retailer, guaranteeing your products are 100% authentic, clinically fresh, and stored optimally to preserve the delicate enzymes and ZPOLY complexes.
