Rodan + Fields : Unblemish

Really bad itchy PAINFULL hot swollen red rash with wrinkly lines on entire face down to neck all the way to behind ears. Look like a burn victim Feels like thick bumpy disgusting sandpaper. A million tiny Disgusting bubbles between layers of skin. At least a dozen cystic acne forming and my skin before this never had more than one in a 2 month period. Feels like some stabbed my a million times with needles. Horrifying. Never had this happen before. My skin is worst than it has ever been. Skin looks extremely dry and wrinkly lines like sunburn. I feel horrified and scared this won't go away. I feel like someone spilled chemicals all over my face and I got a chemical burn. My entire face especially my neck feels extremely itchy and uncomfortable. I just feel so sad and depressed after this. And extra low self esteem. This is the effect after just one use. The "purge" is supposed to last about 1 to 2 months. I can't believe this. I cannot go through with this. What happens if you stop using this after two months? Will your skin stay clear or go back to what it was.?? Because what's the point of going through 2 months of absolute torture

I've tried hundreds of acne products and diet changes. Finally after 15 long years, I had been able to maintain my face with no new breakouts. I started using rodan and fields because several people had recommended it and the reviews all seemed great. About three weeks after starting their products my face broke out in about 30 cystic pimples. I stopped using rodan and fields immediately. I let my face clear up 100% and waited a month before trying it again. Shortly after starting it again, my skin broke out in cystic acne. I should've known since this same company originally developed proactive it would be about the same quality. Save your money, the dermatologist can do the same thing for the same price.

I worked very closely with my consultant and did everything right. My skin just kept getting worse and worse. My cheeks were filled with huge cystic pimples that were very painful. There are some people that seem to like the product, but I see a lot more bad reviews than good. The product is way too expensive. I sent in my product 1 month before the trial ended and I never received my money back guarantee. So with that being said, I basically paid $190 for the worse acne of my life. They aren't consistent with giving you your money back so I wouldn't trust that either. If you are suffering from acne, I would not risk it with this company. Try something more natural and use a honey and cinnamon mask for 15 min 3 times a week. Moisturize with face lotion after washing your face every night. In the mornings don't wash your face, just splash it with some water and put sunscreen on right after. My Face is doing 50x better with doing this although I'm not sure if the acne scars that I got from using this kit will ever go away.

I am a 15 year old , female who has suffered with minor acne since the 6th grade. I have tried EVERYTHING possible to try and keep my acne consistent/ fade scars. I have had many visits to the dermatologist. The dermatologist has prescribed me with multiple creams, cleansers, oral medicine, but nothing seemed to get me where I wanted to be with my skin. I came to a point where I wanted a dramatic change in my skin because I felt like it was ruining my all around appearance, and that was when I was introduced to the most terrible Regimen. Like I said, my face was at the "MINOR" stage with acne when I started "unblemish", and now I'm at a whole Other stage. The first two weeks I was using "unblemish", my skin cleared up, barely had a blemish on it. The longer I continued it, the worse my skin got. I've NEVER had a cyst on my face until I started this treatment, nor have I had acne in certain places before I started this. I decided to stick with it for a full 2 1/2 months because my consultant kept convincing me it was just "purging". Logically, it made no sense because my face shouldn't purge for a good two months. My face should be clear by now, but now, I'm left to suffer with worse acne than when I began this whole treatment. I DO NOT recommend this regimen to anyone, because I was continually reminded "it was going to get better" by my consultant, but it never did. Don't put yourself through this.

The person below could have been me. Everything she said I was like yes yes and yes! There are so many things that are wrong with the product and even more so with company itself. I am worried about writing this review because I don't know if I will be able to stop! Product: Same exact thing as below. instead of improving my acne breakouts, they instantly got worse. And I went from having fairly severe large whitehead breakouts into cystic acne breakouts, which up until that point, I had never even experienced before. It was extremely painful and heart-wrenching. After having spent a lifetime with acne, I thought I had pretty 'thick' skin when it came to my vanity but this really pushed me emotionally to places I hadn't been since I was a teenager. I did call my consultant and ask what the heck. It was at that point when I realized that this woman had no clue about acne and was literally just a sales person pushing very expensive product. After about 30 minutes of me questioning her, some desperation crept into her voice like she just wanted me to stop asking her questions she didn't know the answer to. I immediately stopped my expensive re-occuring order but decided to finish up what I had. That was a big mistake. I should have just washed my hands of it right then and there but I couldn't stomach losing all that money. Needless to say, for the remainder of the time that I used it, my skin continued to get worse and worse. I only found relief when I started using my sister's go-to treatment, Ninja. After one day, nearly all of the damage that was done by UnBlemish was pretty much gone. Now after a month on it, I just can't believe that I spent all that money on this crazy 'system' when there was so much better of an alternative out there. Company: I kind of touched on it above but basically zero USEFUL customer service. After being in the cycle for a while, you start to realize that it is a company. out for a profit. i know that sounds stupid but it doesn't feel like there is any real desire to help people who are suffering from acne. it feels like you are a number and have a dollar sign on your head. Plus the re-occuring billing thing is just a sham. Even when I stopped the billing with my consultant over the phone, she 'forgot' to enter it into her system and I still got charged for another month and got another set of products. I lost it when this happened especially when they did not take responsibility immediately and at first told me basically that I would have to suck it up. only when I worked my way up their ladder and make enough of a fuss did I get my refund. Take-away: Keep looking at other options before you succumb to this 'program'. It is a money pit plain and simple and will do absolutely nothing to help your skin.

Horrible product. I have never signed up to write a review about anything in my 35 years on this earth. But this product is so bad that I hope that I can help save someone else the money and a horrible few months of experiences. First of all, I am fairly new with acne and have never experienced any bouts of depression. I have gotten a few pimples every month due to hormones for about ten years which I had considered acne until now. But I now know that my vanity was my downfall. Perfection isn't real and this product is about a fake as it gets. I started in June 2016 with the Soothe regimen. I have a fair complexion and was hoping to lesson the natural red tones of my skin. By the end of June, this product had turned my occasional hormonal pimple into consistent, but not large, pimples on my chin and neck. So turning to my trusty consultant, I asked her opinion and she suggested to try the Unblemish products (as well as the Soothe products) as they had worked wonders for her and her daughter. So mid July, I did just that. Another $335.95 later (I was already $200 in), I was optimistic about getting a healthy and glowing complexion! Weeks one, two and three, I had basically given myself a chemical peel. My face dried up so bad and was tight and red. The sympathic looks I received from people was a first. After about two weeks of this, I asked my consultant what to do. She suggested that I try using the Soothe #2 after the Unblemish products and if that wasn't sufficient, add the #3 from the Soothe line. I shockingly asked her, "Really, five creams at once"? "Yes for sure" was her response. "Ok well let's try it", which I did for another week before seeing my doctor. Week four, something is not right here. My consistent pimples on my chin and neck were turning into monstrous, cystic pimples. Never had I gotten a pimple like this before! My consultant tells me to stick it out, it gets worse before it gets better. By the end of this week, I go to my doctor who tells my to replace the benzoyl peroxide (#3) with clindoxyl gel. But, the idiot that I am, I again ask my consultant what I should do. She told me that she had used that gel in the past and had temporary relief but I should just stick with the Unblemish products as she had had amazing results and was certain that I would as well. She also suggested that I use the micro dermabrasion paste 3 times a week to substitute the face wash with (another $42). Lucky for me, she had some in stock so I could buy it from her with cash! So I did just that, didn't fill my prescription, and went away on a two week holiday. Weeks five and six, I begin to experience what I now know is acne. Every morning, I would wake up with one or two new huge, cystic pimples on top of the pimples that had arrived in previous weeks. None of them were going away now. It was so painful that I had to take an ibuprofen daily to ease the pain. They started to appear in clusters all over my chin, neck and cheeks. My aunt suggested that I started putting polysporin on the spots as they were starting to look infected. I did this which helped to alliviete some of the pain. I had to attend a wedding in this state and face some of my old high school friends who all looked at my with sympathy. Worse vacation ever! The last day of my vacation, I sent a picture of my face to my consultant and asked her to tell me honestly if I was having a normal reaction. She bombarded me with questions from whether I was mixing other products into the regimen, if I was drinking enough water, to if I was taking my birth control pills. Everything except blaming the products that she was peddling! The last time I used the Unblemish products was the morning of August 31st, the day I flew home from vacation. When I arrived home was when I really realized how bad it had actually gotten. I left my house two weeks earlier with about ten fairly large, but not super painful, pimples. What I faced was a new face staring back at me filled with large clusters of cystic, painful pimples (probably 50). I completely lost it and sank into a dark and low place for about four days. I felt so stupid with giving into vanity and was questioning why I deserved to be in such a bad place when I was such a good person. Not a good place to be as you can imagine. September 1st, my 35th birthday and day one of quitting Unblemish. So depressed by my new 'chickenpox' looking face, that I spent the day avoiding happy phone calls and texts from everyone who loves me. I spent the next four days crying every time I looked in the mirror and kept telling myself that it would get better. The only product I continued to use was the Soothe gentle face wash. During those four days, I stopped getting cystic, painful pimples but kept getting more 'normal' pimples (2 or 3 in total). Sunday was the last day that I used any R+F products (gave up the soothe face wash) and since then, I have NOT gotten a new pimple. I filled my clindoxyl prescription (been using for three days now), seen my doctor again today, and was prescribed an antibiotic. Things are not better yet as I have only been off the products for six days. But the fact that I have no pain and no new pimples is a pretty big indication that the products were absolute garbage. The pimples are decreasing in size and redness by the day. In total, I spent almost $600 to get a face full of pain and pimples and the depression that accompanies that. Please save yourself the heartache and money. Don't believe what they are trying to sell to you. You deserve better!

This is the WORST product you can EVER buy for acne. I broke out in places I have never broken out before, it gave me huge cystic acne that hurt so much I can't even touch my face in certain places. The "consultant " told me to stick with it that it's my face "purging".. Right .. Nothing has changed, it just gets worst, and I am very disappointed in myself for believing in such a scam. If this product was actually good for you I'm sure it wouldn't be sold in a pyramid scheme( yah yah it's not "technically" a Pyramid scheme but it's close ). Almost all, if not every, positive review is from a consultant. I should've done more research on this before I got pressured into using it. Having acne puts you in a vulnerable and desparate position to try to heal it asap, and this is what the consultants look for. I have moved on to Apple cider vinegar and extra Virgin olive oil for my acne regimen. Please please please google it, I have seen WAY more results in the 1 week that I've been doing that. It's cheaper and more NATURAL.

I had really clear skin for years after suffering from acne in my early teen years. My mom had saw a commercial for ProActiv and ordered it for me. It worked amazingly for me at that time. I am now 22 and I had a random flare up of my acne. My whole chin was covered in pimples and they would leave ugly purple scars even if I didn't touch them. A friend of mine had started selling the Rodan and Fields products and told me this Unblemish regime would work wonders for my skin. The first week nothing really happened. The second week, my skin got even worse. She assured me this was my skin "purging" itself of all the bacteria that was in my pores and it was totally normal. I am now on week five and my skin is a nightmare. The spot fading toner is almost making my scars look worse and I have tons of whiteheads whenever I wake up in morning, along with red bumps everywhere. I contacted her again about it and she finally caved and said we should consult the Rodan and Fields helpline. It's been about four days and no one has gotten back to us. I went to see my dermatologist today and he told me to return the product. He said he has only seen mediocre success with it, but most people see no results. I'm sad I wasted five weeks on it, but happy I caught it before the 60 day return period ended. Might work for some people, but I won't be recommending it to anyone. My friend also withdrew from the company after her boyfriend saw the same issues I did with his regime.

I HAVE JUST ORDER THESE PRODUCTS AND NOT TOO IMPRESS , FRIST OF ALL I'M A 58 YEAR WOMEN AND HAVE DRY SKIN, WHEN I ORDER THE NIGHT RENEW SERUM AND OVER NIGH CREAM IT DOES NOTHING FOR MY FACE ON HYDRATATION TO MY SKIN THE NIGHT RENEW CAPS IS A JOKE YOU HAVE TO USE CAPSULES AND OVERNIGHT RESTORATIVE CREAM AND STILL YOUR FACE IS SO DRY, WHEN THE PACKAGE ARRIVED AND I OPEN I WAS SHOCK THESE PRODUCTS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE THE PACKAGE IS VERY CHEAP LOOKING YOU SPEND SO MUSH MONEY AND THEY DONT SEND YOU NO SAMPLE, I HAVE BEEN USING ELIZEBETH ARDEN, ELIZEBETH GRANTAND SHIDSIDO I JUST SWITCH BACK AND FORTH AND NEED A CHANGE SO I DIDCIDED TO TRY RODAN + FIELDS AND VERY SORRY I DID!!

Awful product. I ordered this because I am 24 and still struggle with acne and random breakouts. I was told this would be the perfect product for me. I used it for three weeks and noticed that I had blackheads all over my cheeks, nose, forehead and chin. I never had blackheads before! I went to get a facial today and the esthetician told me that she has never seen skin like this before. She had to work on me for double the time to clean out my skin and pores. My skin looked awful. The product clogged up all of my pores and gave me problems that I didn't even have to begin with!!
