What we carry


Two lines, both built with dermatologists

ZO Growth Factor Serum on the Studio shelf

ZO Skin Health

Created by dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi

A good fit if you want a step-by-step routine for sun damage, uneven tone, breakouts or signs of aging.

Dr. Obagi built his career in dermatology making skincare that doctors could hand to their own patients, and he founded ZO in 2007. ZO calls his approach skin health: you follow a set routine that clears, corrects and protects your skin, and you stay with it so the results last.

ZO sells through authorized providers and its own website, so you won’t find it on Amazon. Refine is a ZO Circle Club provider.

Amarte Aqua Veil hydrating serum on the Studio shelf

Amarte

Korean skincare, led by a Redding dermatologist

A good fit if you like gentle, plant-based formulas, want more hydration, or have sensitive skin.

Amarte’s president, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Craig Kraffert, practices right here in Redding. He also founded DermStore. Amarte began in 1994 inside a dermatology clinic in Korea, where a nurse started making products for the clinic’s patients. Amarte still makes its formulas in South Korea, and Dr. Kraffert tests and refines them for the U.S. They pair traditional ingredients like mushroom and fermented ginkgo with modern skincare science.

In the Studio you’ll find Aqua Veil hydrating serum, BB Cream, Overnight Express night mask and Pop Deco lip therapy.

When you order online through our link, choose Refine Redding at checkout.

Skincare questions we hear

Have a question about your own skin? Text us or call (530) 201-2665.

What’s the difference between ZO and Amarte?

ZO is a step-by-step routine for sun damage, uneven tone, breakouts and signs of aging. Amarte is Korean skincare made with botanical and fermented ingredients, led by a Redding dermatologist, and it’s a gentle place to start if your skin is dry or sensitive. Nicole can help you choose, and some clients use both.

Can I buy ZO and Amarte online?

Yes. Order anytime through our ZO store or our Amarte shop. For Amarte, choose Refine Redding at checkout. ZO sells through authorized providers and its own website, so skip Amazon and other marketplaces. ZO says products from unauthorized sellers may be diluted, heat damaged, expired or counterfeit.

Where should I start?

Nicole builds your first routine around your skin, your goals and the treatments you get with us. Bring what you use now to a free consult or your next visit, or text us at (530) 201-2665.

Can I use them with my treatments?

Yes, and both lines pair well with Botox, filler, SkinVive and microneedling. You may need to pause some products, like retinols and exfoliants, before and after certain treatments. We’ll tell you what to pause and when.

Is ZO the same as Obagi?

No. Dr. Zein Obagi founded ZO Skin Health in 2007. Obagi Medical grew out of his earlier company, and the two brands are separate today. Refine carries ZO.

Can I buy skincare as a gift?

Yes. Pick it up at a Studio visit, or order online through our ZO and Amarte links.

Want help choosing?
