1. How Does the soothe Regimen Work?
Based on Multi-Med® Therapy, soothe is a complete skincare
system that uses OTC pharmaceuticals and active cosmetic
ingredients to protect sensitive, irritated skin and to soothe and
calm facial redness. By combining the right ingredients, in the
right formulations, and using them in the right order, the regimen:
Helps to interrupt the inflammatory cascade, reducing the
appearance of irritation and redness.
Fortifies skin’s natural moisture barrier to reduce sensitivity.
Reduces and neutralizes irritants on skin.
Immediately improves skin tone with optical correctors.
Defends against future damage with broad spectrum UVA/
UVB sunscreen.
4. When your face
can’t take it anymore.
Sensitive skin is a common concern among our patients. It is
estimated that over 50% of people experience sensitive skin to
some degree. While some have an underlying condition such as
rosacea, eczema or psoriasis, we see a larger percentage who
have a genetic predisposition for sensitive skin, making them more
susceptible to oxidative stress, climate change, sun exposure,
cosmetic intolerance, and even friction or rubbing. Symptoms can
include dryness and redness, as well as stinging and itching.
We created the Rodan + Fields® soothe Regimen for anyone exhibiting
the signs of sensitive skin. This daily system helps to interrupt the
inflammatory cascade, strengthens skin’s natural moisture barrier,
calms redness and reduces irritation so that you can take comfort in
having a healthy-looking, luminous complexion every day.
