One of the biggest perks of being a beauty editor is having unlimited access to dermatologists, experts, and brand founders. Whether over email or cocktails at an evening event, they have a plethora of beauty knowledge to share. My colleague and desk mate, Stephanie Johnson, has been a beauty editor for a decade, so you know I'm always peeping over her shoulder and asking for the tea on the latest and greatest beauty launches. Lately, Rodan + Fields has been a topic of discussion in our office, and for good reason.
"There's a common misconception that menopause doesn't affect women until they're in their 50s, but perimenopause can start a full decade earlier," Stephanie says. As the number-one dermatologist-founded skincare brand in the U.S., Rodan + Fields offers an impressive selection of products that cater to perimenopausal skin. She recently put the RF serum on my radar, so I have no choice but to spread the news and hope it lands in your routine.
Clinically-Tested With Anti-Aging Properties
If you're unfamiliar, perimenopause is the phase leading up to menopause that contributes to declining estrogen. This decline hinders your skin from properly renewing itself, leading to a duller, more uneven tone that may make you look older than you feel. According to Stephanie, "Incorporating the RF serum into your routine can help prevent some unwanted side effects of perimenopause like collagen loss and dryness." The RF serum directly combats this by rebuilding your skin barrier with niacinamide, ceramides, and a patented antioxidant complex. Not to mention that its RF TriEnergy Complex energizes surface skin cells by 200%, reviving the renewal process that estrogen once carried. It visibly restores what perimenopause depletes, including firmness, radiance, even tone, and rejuvenated skin. Based on an eight-week clinical and consumer study, 92% of consumers had fewer fine lines in just four weeks.
Multi-Functional Use
While your average serum targets one concern, the Total RF Serum targets six: wrinkles, uneven tone, dullness, loss of firmness, rough texture, and enlarged pores. "I don't want to spend my time layering on tinctures and potions; I need a serum that targets all my concerns," Stephanie says. If you're anything like Stephanie, turn to the RF serum to address every visible sign of aging in just a few drops. In case you needed any more convincing, Stephanie added that "the Total RF includes calcium to help with firmness, patented antioxidants to help with resiliency, and a blend of omega-6 fatty acid, Indian kino extract, and Ayurvedic sandalwood to help with radiance for an all-in-one anti-aging powerhouse."
