Let me just say first of all that this is not a sponsored post! I have been using these two Rodan & Fields products for almost 2 years now. Since I love them so much, I think they're worth sharing!

Click here to order from my good friend Ashley. She's my consultant!

I'll start with the Lash Boost serum. I was very skeptical of this miracle product until I saw the results on a good friend/co-worker. After seeing her amazing results, I decided to try it myself. It takes about 4-6 weeks before you notice any eyelash growth. I never had redness, itching, or any other side effects that some people have with lash serums. I'm now on my second tube and don't think I'll be running out any time soon! So, even though this isn't a cheap product, it definitely lasts a long time, around 6-8 months! After you've washed your face, just swipe it on your lash line before bed. This is something that requires upkeep. You constantly lose & regrow lashes, just like the hairs on our head, so your lashes will always need this "miracle grow" (as I call it) serum to keep your new ones growing long! I get asked all the time if my lashes are fake, which is music to my ears!
To enhance my lashes even more, I use clinique eyelash primer (2 coats) and lashblast mascara (2 coats).

The second R&F product that I can't live without is their Active Hydration Serum. I have very very dry skin, always have! My under active thyroid does not help either. I decided to try this moisturizer because 1. I knew their lash serum worked wonders just like they claimed, and 2. I had a dry patch around my nose that I could NOT get to go away! I exfoliated, did microdermabrasion, used my usual heavy moisturizers, and nothing was working. After about 3-5 days of using the Active Hydration Serum it was gone! This is another expensive but long lasting product. A little goes SUCH a long way! This also lasts me about 6-8 months, maybe even longer.

While on the subject of good moisturizers and dry skin, I've been using Gold Bond rough & bumpy for my all-over body lotion for around a year now. It's the only lotion that keeps my skin so smooth! Especially on the backs of my arms and legs. If you have super dry skin all over like I do, or just an area that gives you trouble like your hands/elbows/etc, try this stuff out!
