Working from home, I don’t worry a whole lot about my appearance, but I will admit, even when I put in the effort, I often still look tired. Who doesn’t feel they look tired most of the time? We have so much going on, and do not get enough rest and look exhausted because of it.
I was interested to try the two products from Rodan + Fields.
Rodan + Fields (R+F) is a skincare brand that has expanded rapidly through direct selling and an army of consultants. They have items in their line that boost skin tone, control breakouts, and tackle signs of aging.
Active Hydration Bright Eye Complex
I have tried a few eye treatments in the past, but most irritated my eyes or I never saw any results.
Rodan + Fields Active Hydration Bright Eye Complex is designed to brighten the under-eye area, and after just one week, it did start to do that. I am looking forward to using this product every day.
My worry with anything new around my eyes, as always, will I be sensitive to the product? Luckily, I was not. The Active Hydration Bright Eye Complex is a lightweight cream that requires only a very small dot to cover the under-eye area twice a day, morning and night. It was simple to add to my daily routine. Rodan + Fields Bright Eye Complex is infused with three times more hydrating effect of glycerin compared to most other eye creams. This product has a sheer and lightweight consistency that makes it capable of blending easily with your skin. The formula has been guaranteed to be oil-free and shouldn’t leave oily and combination skin types with greasy skin.
Active Hydration Serum
Rodan + Fields Active Hydration Serum works immediately, lasts all day, and most importantly, builds moisture over time. It’s a layering super-serum that utilizes Rodan + Field’s proprietary 3D3P Molecular Matrix that acts as your skin’s personal water reservoir, drawing and locking in moisture from the air to nourish and replenish your skin as needed.
The little roller has been a bit of an adventure to use. The sensation kind of surprised me at first, but I quickly got used to the feeling and now look forward to ‘rolling’ at night. You move in up/down and side-to-side motions and the process only takes one minute to cover the entire face. It needs to be rinsed with warm water after each use and submerged into an effervescent tablet solution twice a week.
It has been a process getting my skin used to that level of moisture. It was as if the skin was absorbing it very slowly. The product never sat on my skin and looked greasy. After a month of use, the clear serum formula is absorbed right away – as if my skin recalibrated & now accepts the product very well. I’m really enjoying the consistency of the lightweight formula – no residue on my fingers and my skin drinks it right up. I shouldn’t call it ‘lightweight’ though, because the product is actually quite an intense moisturizer! Plus, the cool applicator tool distributes the exact right amount for each use. My internal image of skin “dullness” is gone and the pesky flaky patches have vanished.
Rodan + Fields products can be purchased as part of a regimen set or individually. Have you tried any of the products, what do you think?
