Skincare Sundays: Protecting your skin during the harsh winter months with Rodan + Fields

We’ve all seen the pictures by now… this past week several states were already covered in snow and nearly all 50 states were already dropping below freezing temperatures. Thanksgiving is around the corner and so are the cold winter months.

Winter can be very damaging to your skin… and that makes sense. During the Summer, we are very aware of needing to apply sunscreen because we have less clothing on. We may be at the pool or beach and if you are a parent, you are likely slathering SPF 50+ (as high as the legal limit without a prescription) on your little ones, so you might as well cover up.

But what about during the winter months? The sun can also be very harsh and sunscreen is still necessary. Two areas that are exposed more than any others during the winter are your hands and lips.

So let’s talk about protecting our skin during the winter. Rodan and Fields has unbelievable products to protect your hands and lips.

First up, our hands: this two-step hand cream and sunscreen combo will not only protect your hands from sun damage but reverse damage that might have already occurred.
REDEFINE Hand Treatment Regimen:

• Our hands are among the hardest working and most environmentally vulnerable parts of our bodies. That’s why the backs of people’s hands often look so much older than their faces. To defend against the telltale signs of skin aging, Rodan + Fields created the REDEFINE Hand Treatment Regimen. It visibly brightens, diminishes visible redness and reduces the appearance of brown spots, wrinkles and thin, crepey skin.
• Regimen includes REDEFINE Hand Brightening Treatment and REDEFINE Age Shield Hand Balm

Next up lips: Use the microdermabrasion and renewing serum once a week and the lip shield daily to keep your lips perfectly kissable.

ENHANCEMENTS Lip Microdermabrasion, REDEFINE Lip Renewing Serum, and ESSENTIALS Lip Sheild Broad Spectrum SPF 25

• When it comes to lips, time and the environment take their toll in a broad way. The smooth, naturally voluptuous, sexy, defined lips that nature gives us will, over time, become thinner, flatter, less healthy-looking and more lined. Reclaim or maintain the lips of youth with REDEFINE Lip Renewing Serum. Each peptide and antioxidant-rich capsule helps lips retain natural moisturizing factors, smooths lip texture and reduces the appearance of lip wrinkles. (60 capsules are included).
• Because the skin on lips is so thin, this area is highly sensitive and particularly vulnerable to showing signs of dryness and aging. ESSENTIALS Lip Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 25 goes beyond moisturization to provide protective skincare for the lips. This hydrating lip balm soothes, softens and protects lips from the aging and burning effects of the sun with SHIELDrf, an exclusive complex of stabilized avobenzone and anti-oxidant/anti-inflammatory colorless carotenoids for effective UVA sunscreen protection. This non-waxy formula, and I may sound a bit scientific here for a second, contains collagen-stimulating peptides to smooth lip texture, lipid molecules for long-term moisturization and dimethicone to protect the delicate moisture barrier. Vitamins A, C and E provide anti-oxidant protection, while shea butter, avocado and sunflower seed oil hydrate and moisturize. 4.25 g/.15 oz. each, available in packs of two.
• ENHANCEMENTS Lip Micro-Dermabrasion is an effective and convenient exfoliation stick created specifically for one of the areas of your face most prone to showing early signs of aging: your lips. It removes dead skin cells and exfoliates flaky lip tissues in just a few easy swipes. This easy to use, conditioning treatment makes lips look and feel more defined and youthful by renewing the surface and reducing lipstick bleeding. 2.0 g/.07 oz

Don’t you think your hands and lips are worth protecting against the harsh winter elements this year? Treat yourself to these great products or share them as a gift for a loved one during the holiday season. These Rodan and Fields items make a great holiday stocking stuffers or gift for that special someone… especially if you get to snuggle up with him/her during a cold and stormy day for a couple quick kisses or hot and steamy passion-filled wintry bliss-filled kisses. Don’t your lips and hands deserve to be kissibly soft and smooth to the touch? Try out these great products today.

Skincare you can feel good about (on the inside)! Skincare Sundays: Top 10 reasons you can feel good about Rodan + Fields

Happy Sunday, everyone! I wanted to share a little bit about the philosophy of Rodan + Fields plus a little more about the company today. As someone who has always worked in a public career, working with a privately held company, I could not be any more impressed with the perks, incentives, and pay plan this company offers its consultants, but beyond that I am even more impressed with the doctors’ philosophy to ensure the product is the #1 product on the market.

The Rodan + Fields Regimen Philosophy:

• Provides the right ingredients, in the right formulations, in the right order, using Multi-Med® Therapy;
“Your face is the window to the world. If you feel good about your skin on your face then you will go boldly into the world with confidence.”
• Is based on treating the full face with an entire regimen due to the fact that ‘spot treating’ is ineffective;
• Easy-to-use: Color-coded regimens with numbered steps;
• Real Results: Clinical studies/photos revealing the truth about the effectiveness of their products;
• Product safety meets FDA standards; and
• 60-day satisfaction guarantee

The before and after photos or even the 60-day money back guarantee are what really caught my eye in the first place, but as I continue to get to know the company and the products, this philosophy as a whole means even more to me. All products go through clinical trials and meet FDA standards, plus the products come in fool-proof regimens to treat your entire area of concern with your skin. If you haven’t seen the before and after photos you will be blown away at the amazing results R+F regimens provide.

The tagline, “Changing Skin, Changing Lives” is quite factual. Your face is the window to the world. If you feel good about your skin on your face then you will go boldly into the world with confidence.

On a more personal note, as I have mentioned in previous Skincare Sundays articles, I have struggled with acne for far too long, after starting the

“Multi-Med® Therapy addresses multiple causes and manifestations of specific issues as well as combines over-the-counter (OTC) active ingredients with cosmetic ingredients to create effective formulations that feel like luxury skin treatments.” – Rodan + Fields

With the launch of Acute Care and the upcoming Canadian launch, business analysts are expecting R+F to grow just as much or even more in 2014.

Fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness got you down? Redefine your skin and give the Rodan and Fields REDEFINE Regimen a try.

Ask most women what their skincare concerns are and they will tell you fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness. Well, if you are one of those women, or don’t want to be one of the countless women who are, then the Rodan and Fields REDEFINE Regimen might just be for you.

Based on Multi-Med® Therapy, the REDEFINE Regimen is a comprehensive solution designed to help defend against and reduce the visible signs of aging. By combining the right ingredients, in the right formulations, and using them in the right order, the regimen:

• Helps to visibly firm the skin;
• Hydrates and increases skin elasticity;
• Reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles; and

The REDEFINE Line also offers a multitude of products:

The time is here to start thinking about the holidays… Why not Rodan and Fields?

It’s November already. The mountains received some snow over the weekend and we’re about to winterize our garden. Yesterday, while at the grocery store, my family and I noticed a lot of holiday stuff everywhere. Even the kids asked, “why are all the Christmas decorations out?” Well, truth be told, even if you aren’t ready, the time is here to start thinking about the holidays.

My first question for everyone is are you ready for all the photo opportunities with amazing skin? I personally have put myself in the photographer position for too many years and want to make sure I am part of the family memories in the photos this year!

I’ll be the first to admit it, I tend to look at my imperfections whenever I am in a photo. Chances are, you do too. But we all know that isn’t always the case whenever someone else looks at a photo with ourselves as one of the focal points of the image. They might not see any imperfections, but I want to make every effort to remove any chance of someone seeing what I see.

The next question I have for you is to think of someone else who you want to treat to amazing glowing skin. Like my story above, does your mom or sister shy away from the camera as well, or does your hubby need a little pampering but would never be caught using “your” skincare products?

If you can think of at least one person, including yourself, who needs a little pampering this holiday season, consider these mini regimens from Rodan and Fields to combat some of the most common skincare problems, including blackheads, fine lines, dry & cracked lips, or puffy eyes with fine lines. We also have some great recommended products for the daily shaving routine (*hint, hint, for all those men in your life out there).

For yourself, take advantage of our holiday special – order a regimen (Redefine, Unblemish, or Reverse) with either an AMP Roller System or Macro Exfoliator and receive a free Redefine Multi-Function Eye Cream. Not only do you save 20% on your bundle, plus 10% for PC Perks Customers, you get the Eye Cream (a $60 value) for free. So treat yourself this holiday season with glowing skin.

One way to save even more this holiday season is to take advantage of our PC Perks program. For less than $20 (a one time fee) you get 10% off on all your products, free shipping on your regularly scheduled orders, inside access to the Doctors, exclusive promotions (like our recent Acute Care Flash Sale) as well as access to the nursing staff and a special customer service line.

For blackheads we recommend the Unblemish Sulfer Wash paired with the Micro Dermabrasion Paste

For fine lines we recommend the AMP Roller with Night Renewing Serum

For those perfect pouty lips we recommend the Lip Micro Dermabrasion stick plus the Lip Renewing Serum

For eyes that shine bright we recommend the Redefine Eye Clothes with Redefine Multi-Function Eye Cream

For the perfect shaving routine we recommend Soothe Gentle Cream Wash, Soothe Sensitive Skin Treatment and the Micro Dermabrasion Paste.

For some additional gift giving ideas check out the flyer below.

*All of these products come with the Rodan and Fields 60 day money back guarantee

Skincare Sundays: A skincare regimen for women, men and children alike, the Rodan + Fields Soothe Regimen.

Today, I want to utlize the chance I have on Skincare Sunday to briefly go over the amazing regimen known as Soothe. Rodan & Fields Soothe is probably one of the most flexible lines available. Soothe is a multi-med therapy for sensitive skin and calms visible redness. The Soothe Regimen is a 4 step line that’s clinically proven to reduce redness in as little a five minutes. It contains a patented RFP3 technology to literally block the inflammation process.

Soothe is also used to calm a sunburn, psoriasis, mild to moderate rosacea, and even eczema. Rodan and Fields Soothe Regimen is mild enough to treat skin conditions for children.

Men can use Rodan + Fields too!

Another common use of the Soothe line is as part of the male shaving routine. Using Soothe as part of your shaving routine, combined with microdermabrasion paste can eliminate those annoying bumps and minor skin irritations that occur due to shaving.

Soothe’s amazing results are just that… Amazing! Are you ready to try Rodan + Fields Soothe Regimen to soothe away your sensitive skin? Contact me for more information.

Skincare Sundays: Fall into glowing skin Rodan + Fields Giveaway

It is inevitable, we all begin to age and for some reason it seems that the stress of daily life adds to the aging factor. I know, for me, I have noticed a few gray hairs pop up in the last few years, my skin looks tired and doesn’t have that “pregnancy glow” anymore, but I am one of the lucky ones to still have acne, so somehow, I have a mixture of 30-something and teenager skin.

About a year ago, I noticed a few of my friends’ pictures on Facebook and was amazed, they were sorority sisters of mine and they looked amazing. So I finally asked them, “What is your secret? You both have full time jobs, kids and busy schedules. How are you still looking so rested? How is your skin glowing and youthful looking?” Well, their secret turned out to be an amazing skin care line by the doctors who created Proactiv. After their success with Proactiv, Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields continued their private practice dermatology offices “I feel so good about my skin for the first time in years!” and noticed that while they had battled acne there were three other common skin conditions they were seeing more and more patients about. Rodan and Fields (also written as Rodan + Fields or R+F) was created to help people with those skin conditions. I’ll go into each regimen over the next several weeks.

For today, I am just giving some background information on why I chose to partner with these great doctors and these amazing products. I started using the Unblemish regimen about six weeks ago and cannot even believe the results! I feel so good about my skin for the first time in years! I even feel confident enough to be without foundation every day, including work days.

So that is a bit of my background on why I joined R+F and to introduce you, our awesome readers, to the R+F skincare line we are focusing on helping you keep your skin glowing this fall with a little product giveaway. Moisturizing is so important, but it is just one part of taking care of your skin. Using sunscreen daily and exfoliating a few times each week can help you to maintain your glow and minimize your skin’s aging process.

Rodan + Fields products featured on the Today Show

Up for grabs during today’s giveaway is a mini-facial kit, plus a lip shield to protect your pout.

*Giveaway open to residents of the United States over the age of 18 or with a parent’s consent.
