Friend of mine has been using Rodan and Fields and likes it so much she has been talked in to being a consultant.  Seems very pricey.....your thoughts?

I am curious too.  I wanted to try their dermabrasion scrub but wasn't willing to spend 80 dollars on it. Supposedly it is harsh but good.

I love their Microdermabrasion Paste. I tried their Redefine line. I loved it for the first few days and hen had a really bad reaction. Red, burning, inflamed skin and my eyes were puffy swollen and sore for over a week. I was also looking for a side gig, so I started using Arbonne's RE9 Advanced anti-aging line. It's gentle yet effective, better ingredients than R+F (botanically based.) I'm so pleased that I recently became an Arbonne Consultant.

She was talked into it?  She can say no.  The products did nothing for my son.  He had to go on Accutane, which cured his acne.  I've lived with acne all of my life and when it was the worst, I had to take antibiotics.

Just another MLM I refuse to support.

 

A neighbor who sells it gave me a large sample of the MicrodermPaste to try, she was convinced I would 'fall in love'.

I finally tried it- nothing special. If I had NEVER used a scrub before I might think I was good, but since I have many to compare it to........I was under-whelmed.

I will continue with Tatcha and Skinn microscrub.

Overpriced hype. I know someone who paid $165 for their eyelash treatment, very close to the exact ingredients in Rapid Lash for $50 or less.

Between my friend that sells Rodan and Fields and the one that sells Younique I would go broke.  One of my other friends is a regular customer of R&F though and really likes it.

 

@Shelbelle, which ingredient is that?  RapidLash has changed their formulation 3 times since I started using it.  I think the FDA made them get rid of the one that made it work so well although it still does a pretty good job.  I switch between it and MD Lash Grande.

I dont know of any particular ingredient, I just know I compared these 2 products and told my friend that ingredients were just about identical to each other.

Ok, they used to have an ingredient that was very similar to the active ingredient in Latisse, although it was a natural derivative.  Since the product worked so well I can't imagine them eliminating the ingredient unless there had been pressure from the FDA.

My daughter in law sells it so I felt obligated to purchase since she knows I am a skincare junkie.  It was okay, nothing special.  Of course I am 70 years old with very nice skin and I have never found that "special product".  Recently I had knee cap surgery, stayed with my sister while recovering and  and I did not have my regular skincare products with me.  Well I used a little of this and little of that for about a month and my skin remained the same as it does with my overpriced regular products.
