Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields address real skincare problems women face with real solutions. Let's face it. That is their expertise as cosmetic dermatologists. Our regimens solve those the common skin issues. But women want more.
The request came in for the Doctors to develop a product that can give a polished look, but not a product like all the others that masks their natural glow, clog their pores or harms their skin. So the Docs and the research team decided to create something to protect and instantly perfect the glowing skin these women had earned through daily regimen usage. Today, I am presenting this new product: RADIANT DEFENSE PERFECTING LIQUID.
WHAT IS RADIANT DEFENSE PERFECTING LIQUID? Radiant Defense Perfecting Liquid is a multi-tasking Glow Guard that perfects the look of skin and protects your natural glow, delivering a radiant, healthy-looking complexion. It is formulated with our proprietary RD3 Complex, it provides skin with three types of defense: environmental defense, barrier defense, and photo defense (SPF 30 in US/CA, SPF 25 in AUS). This last step in your skincare routine not only provides powerhouse protection but also instantly perfects skin, blurring imperfections without clogging pores or breakouts. Radiant Defense is available in six luminous shades that can be worn alone or blended together for a customized glow. Plus, coverage is buildable so you are in control of the perfecting process.
WHO CAN USE RADIANT DEFENSE PERFECTING LIQUID? This product is for all skin tones from fair to deep. It comes in 6 flexible, natural-looking shades that can be worn alone or mixed together for a customized glow. It is also appropriate for all skin types, even for sensitive and acne-prone skin. It is non-comedogenic and non- pores or cause breakouts. It is the perfect last step to every skincare routine for Soothe, Unblemish, Reverse and Redefine users or those new to Rodan and Fields.
WHY SHOULD I PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT (VERSUS OTHERS)? Radiant Defense Perfecting Liquid takes hybrid skincare/tinted products to the next level by providing skin breakthrough protection with perfecting aesthetics. Other tinted products like foundations or BB/CC Creams, can often feel heavy or greasy, lack efficacy, cause breakouts, clog pores and either provide to heavy or too light coverage.

FINDING YOUR SHADE Beginning OCT 1 it will be available.
Radiant Defense is available in six luminous shades that can be worn alone or blended together for a customized glow. There are 2 ways to find your shade- in person and online. Make sure you have a clean face prior to finding your shade. If you are wearing makeup, use Makeup Remover Wipes to remove any existing facial makeup so you begin with a bare face.
In Person: As your consultant, I can show you the full shade lineup of Radiant Defense. There are also sample cards. You can try multiple shades to find your match.
There are 3 easy steps:
STRIPE: Using your fingers or Q-Tips, apply stripes of the three closest shades on your jawline and see which one blends away into the skin.
SELECT Whichever shade best complements your natural glow and disappears into your skin is your shade.
SEE: See the instantly radiant results!
Online: Virtually try on all six shades from your smart phone, tablet or computer using the Digital Shade Finder. This innovative tool is located on my website DrYoungerYou.myrandf.com and in the recommendation section of the Solution Tool.

WHAT IF TWO DIFFERENT SHADES LOOK GOOD ON MY SKIN TONE? The 6 natural-looking shades were designed to be very flexible and to provide buildable coverage. Often a person can easily wear 2 different shades so it is a matter of personal preference which one you choose. Select the shade that you feels best complements your natural glow! If you feel you are in between 2 shades, you can purchase both and mix together for a customized glow.
