My Personal R+F Results

You guys! As you know, I started my own skincare business with Rodan + Fields back in January. At that time, I also started to use the products the way they are intended to be used: Twice a day, in the right order.

Although I've been using the products for a couple of years, I as really not using them in a way that one should expect to get results. In other words, I might wash my face and use moisturizer, but not tone, or I might just skip all the steps before bed.

In any case, when I started as a consultant, I knew I needed to become a product of the product. In my business kit, I got two regimens: REDEFINE, which targets firmness, enlarged pores, wrinkles and expression lines, and REVERSE, which targets dark marks, dullness and sun damage. In addition to my two regimens, I use our Multi-Function Eye Cream and our Microdermabrasion Paste to exfoliate a few times each week.

I started using my regimens on January 14, 2016. I use REVERSE in the morning, and REDEFINE at night. I use the eye cream both morning and evening before bed. I knew I was seeing great results about halfway in. I had melasma from when I was pregnant, and also a lot of freckles and dark marks on my face and nose from years of not using SPF.


I've always felt that I have nice skin. I don't get acne very often, I don't have to wear a lot of makeup, I don't get really oily, etc. I thought my freckles were cute. I was more surprised than anyone when I took my "after" photos this month. I couldn't believe what I saw!



My face looks so much brighter and refreshed! My melasma and sun damage is not completely gone, but it looks SO much better, and though I have some progress to be made with wrinkles around my mouth, forehead and eyes, I really think those have improved, also. Even my eyes have seen great improvement in terms of my dark circles, puffiness and crows feet.



I'm to a point where I can go without concealer under my eyes or anywhere else on my face. And I use our Mineral Peptides Powder, which has patent-pending RFp3 technology, SPF 20 and protects the skin against environmental aggressors and irritants, while light deflecting minerals immediately even skin tone and reduce redness.

Even though it may seem like I use a lot of products, it really is not very time consuming. It takes me about 5 minutes in the morning to wash, tone and moisturize my face and apply eye cream. And my nighttime routine is just a few minutes longer because I use the Redefine wash as a mask.

I always tell my customers to make sure they take a "before" picture, not so they do something with them, but just to have something to compare to after they've used our products for 30, 60 or 90 days. It's hard to notice changes in ourselves sometimes.



I would love to help you with your skin - either by helping to treat a current concern you have, or to prevent concerns!

Got Wrinkles? Not Anymore!

So, now that you've learned a little bit about what R+F is about, let's get into the products!

As I said, each regimen is designed to target a specific skin-related concern (aging skin, acne, sensitive skin and sun damage). All of the products are based on the Multi-Med Therapy philosophy of combining the right ingredients, in the right formulations, and using them in the right way to achieve REAL BENEFITS.


The first regimen I want to highlight is a customer favorite: REDEFINE! Why is it a favorite? Because everyone is aging, and this regimen helps turn back time.

REDEFINE is formulated to help defend against and reduce the visible signs of aging for noticeably firmer, smoother, flawless-looking skin. It comes with four full-size products: Daily Cleansing Mask, Pore Minimizing Toner, Triple Defense Treatment SPF 30, and Overnight Restorative Cream.



The cleanser is an exfoliating kaolin clay-based mask that you gently message with wet fingers into dry skin, then leave on for two minutes or so until it dries, and rinse off. Step two is the toner, which tightens and minimizes pores and, and as step three, you use the SPF in the morning, and overnight cream in the evening, both of which are SUPER hydrating and light on the skin.


In a third party clinical test, users of REDEFINE found:

*100% of people saw an improvement in the texture of their skin
*91% said their skin looked more radiant
*90% thought their skin was smoother
*80% said they had fewer fine lines
*80% noticed their pores appeared smaller
*80% said they have fewer wrinkles and more elasticity
*78% had a more even skin tone
*76% had fewer brown spots


REDEFINE works amazingly well with our two tools, the AMP MD Roller and our Macro Exfoliator (more info to come on those in a separate post). If you're interested in pricing,  let me know! I can get you 10% off and free shipping. 

Enjoy more of these amazing results!


What do you think?! Amazing, right? If you're not sure what regimen would be right for you, take 1 minute to use our solutions tool. Email yourself the results and I'll get a copy and can help customize a regimen just for you!

Rodan + Fields: What About It?

In my second month of joining this business, I've been having so much fun!! My little sister joined my team yesterday; my best friend and her little sister joined last week, and I'm making some side money just telling everyone how much I love this product!

Before I jump in to product highlights, I thought I'd share a little background about the company, what the products are about, etc. They actually have a super interesting history.

Doctors Katie Rodan and Kathy Fields, otherwise known as the Proactiv doctors, developed a skin care line that addresses a large range of skin care concerns, from rosacea to anti-aging.


In 2002, they realized they should be share these products with a broader audience so, they sold the product line to Estée Lauder who took it to high-end department stores. They quickly realized they could do so much more to help change skin and change lives by partnering with people interested in becoming independent business owners. They knew that transitioning to a direct sales model would allow the company to reach more customers, sell more product, and ultimately, help individuals become successful entrepreneurs.

In 2008, Rodan + Fields was the first company to successfully come out from behind the “glass counter” into the world of direct selling. It has been a huge success! Since then, the company has experienced triple digit growth EVERY SINGLE YEAR!


The cool news is, Rodan + Fields is just getting started! As a company we are debt free, growing in triple digits every year—in fact we grew our number of 6 figure annual income earners by over 128% last year. As a result of our fast growth, we are getting huge business accolades from the American Business Awards (for our case study with Harvard Business school), Ernst & Young, and the Direct Selling association just gave us more awards in one time, than any company in the 100 year history of direct sales! And as far as our products recognition—we are in major beauty blogs and magazines on a regular basis. The most amazing part about that is that Rodan + Fields does not market. EVERYTHING is word of mouth.


Why? Because the products do exactly what they say they do! And the doctor's believe this to the point that you can return empty bottles for up to 60 days after purchase for any reason!

Each regimen is designed to target a specific skin-related concern (aging skin, acne, sensitive skin and sun damage). All of the products are based on the Multi-Med Therapy philosophy of combining the right ingredients, in the right formulations, and using them in the right way to achieve REAL BENEFITS. Plus we have some great enhancement and essential products for body, eyes, and lips. 


Not sure what would be good for you? Feel free to take this solutions tool and email yourself the results. It's a great starting point for you and I to discuss some options for your concerns!

I am so passionate about these products and can’t wait to share them with you!

Why I Said 'Yes' to Rodan + Fields

Happy Friday, everyone! First of all, thanks to my faithful readers for bearing with me the past few weeks as my blogs have slowed to a near halt. I've got so much going on at work that most days, I get home from work, spend time with Liam before he goes to bed, then hop back on the computer to do more work. I'm nearing the end of a massive project though, so I hope this lets up soon and I can have more time outside of work for ME!

Speaking of work - I shared at the beginning of the year that I made the decision to start my own business as a consultant for Rodan + Fields! I'm starting a skincare series, called Love the Skin You're In, in which I focus on the business, skin care issues, results...whatever comes up! My goal is not to sell you something. Just to educate you.

First, a little background on why I joined the company.

I started using Rodan  + Fields products as a Preferred Customer a couple of years ago to support my sister when she started as a consultant. I loved the products and the flexibility of being a preferred customer. Last year, while pregnant with her second baby, my sister was laid off. She was too far along in her pregnancy to have it make sense to look for a new job at that point, so she decided to wait until after the baby was born. In those months, she decided to really pursue Rodan + Fields and see if she could make it work as a significant source of income, as so many others do.

And then I started to actually see her success. She starting gaining more customers and business partners every day. And all she was doing was sharing with other people how awesome these products are! I started to see more and more people talking about the opportunity within this company, and I started asking questions about how this actually works.


Admittedly, I was skeptical. I didn't love the idea of using my personal social media channels and I was nervous about having to "sell" because I'm not a salesperson, and I had no idea who I would even sell to! Basically, I was scared.

But as I learned about the business model and company, I learned that R+F has less than a 1% return rate for all products, even with their 60-day money back guarantee. It's not being sold everywhere, which means there is so much room for growth, and the # of consultants is not high at all. You don't have inventory, or sales quotas. I could go on and on. But it all tied back to my own experience with the products. I knew that these products were life changing. I knew that they worked. My job would just be to share that with other people.


Plus, the reality is that bills are piling up, debt is not going away fast enough, we're trying to buy a new house this year, and I'd eventually love to be able to spend more time home with Liam and our other children, whenever they may come. So what did I have to lose?

I joined my sister as her Business Partner at the beginning of January. Within just a couple of weeks, I got my first promotion! I am not a salesperson, but it's addicting when you get that first order! 

The team I'm on is amazing and inspiring. There are women in my group who are $10 million achievers. TEN MILLION DOLLARS! There are other women who bring home thousands of dollars every MONTH, regularly. How's that for residual income? Every day I see these women signing business partners and getting "promoted" and sharing ideas on how to be successful and it's so inspiring.  And all I'm doing guys, is taking an hour or two out of each day to share how much I love these products.


This business is not a pyramid scheme. It is not a scam. I am not trying to get something FROM you, I am trying to do something FOR you. Early frustrations I've faced include comments like this from ignorant people, who are seeing things from other direct sales companies that do operate like that. I'm sure people are annoyed with my Facebook posts. I've heard "no" more than yes. A lot of people are put off by the price. (Which I find so interesting, given people's willingness to spend $150 on a pair of jeans or $50 on a mani/pedi. Those are temporary. This is your skin...you have it forever.) But I have seen first-hand that this business is a huge opportunity so I'm running with it! I don't do anything half-ass. If I start something, I will finish it, and damn it, I want results. This will be no different...success is mine for the taking.

I can't wait to tell you more each week, and get you as excited about skincare as I am! 

Have a great weekend friends!
