Rodan and Fields has grown 800% in only 16 months!

I am so excited to be working for such a fun and fast growing company. When I joined Rodan and Fields several months back, it all made sense, but now I really , really get the vision of where Rodan and Fields is going. Each meeting or training brings more and more people from all over. Last night our business meeting at the Crowne Plaza was filled to capacity.The biggest turn out yet. Hearing Ali Box and Kimberly Clark share their amazing journey and how they became level 5's in such a short time was very motivating.They are real down to earth people that decided to take a chance on something brand new. Their future and their families futures are going to be incredibly different. It is like knowing that you have come to a cross road. One way keeps you on the same comfortable path that you've always known and the other is unknown yet full of possibilities that will lead to whole new experiences. After 23 years of being on the same comfortable path, I'm ready for some twists, turns and new adventures. The great thing is I'm not on this journey alone. My two sister's are along for the ride as well.

Interesting Skin Care Myths

Truth or Myth? I need to drink at least eight glasses of water a day for my skin.
MYTH: You need 91 ounces of fluids a day which you can get from the food and beverages you consume. The outside humidity determines how dry you are, not how much water you drink.

Truth or Myth? Doing facial exercises will gift my skin a lift.
MYTH: The more you make facial movements, the deeper your lines become. You have muscles in your face (forty-four). These muscles are attached to your skin. So any kind of movment exercises these muscles and adds to your wrinkles.

Truth or Myth? I wear sunscreen when I go outside so my skin is protected from the sun.
This one is a bit tricky so listen carefully. NOT ALL SUNSCREENS ARE CREATED EQUALLY!!!! You need a sunscreen that protects against UVA/UVB both. So start reading labels. Here is a little trick to remember the difference between UVA and UVB. Think of UVA (A for AGE). Having UVA protection keeps our skin from AGING. Think of UVB (B for BURN). Having UVB protection means keeping our skin from burning. If you are driving in your car and the sun is beating down on you on the drivers side for example, you are going to get those UVA rays coming at you and THEY ARE SLOWLY AGING YOUR SKIN IF UNPROTECTED.
