Rodan + Fields

Rodan + Fields

Founded in 2002 by Stanford-trained dermatologists Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields and headquartered in San Francisco, Rodan + Fields is built around a dermatologist-inspired, regimen-based approach. Its Multi-Med Therapy pairs ingredients in purposeful formulations and steps, with the goal of visible results and healthier-looking skin. I like that the routines are designed as considered sequences—from cleansing through targeted treatments—rather than one-size-fits-all fixes.

Rodan + Fields REDEFINE regimen products lined up together, including cleanser, toner, creams, serum capsules and a facial roller.

A routine with its own rhythm

REDEFINE Daily Clay Cleanser and REDEFINE Daily Foaming Cleanser make a deliberate start to the routine, while REDEFINE Pore Refining Toner carries that reset forward. For targeted care, REDEFINE Multi-Function Eye Cream and REDEFINE Intensive Renewing Serum sit alongside REDEFINE Overnight Reparative Lotion, with REDEFINE Triple Defense Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 30 for daytime protection. I also like including R + F Lash Boost as an evening-focused finishing step.

Calm, clear, replenish

SOOTHE Calming Gel Cleanser, SOOTHE Sensitive Skin Treatment, and SOOTHE Moisturizing Rescue Cream make a comfort-first trio, with SOOTHE Daily Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 completing the daytime lineup. For blemish-prone skin, UNBLEMISH Refining Acne Wash, UNBLEMISH Clarifying Toner, and UNBLEMISH Dual Intensive Acne Treatment form a focused routine. Rodan + Fields Active Hydration Serum adds a moisture-focused step that can be layered into either routine.

The point is the routine

The throughline I see in Rodan + Fields is the belief that skincare works best as a sequence: the right ingredients, in the right formulations, used in the right order. Founded by practicing dermatologists, the brand translates that perspective into routines designed around concerns rather than a single hero formula. For me, that measured, regimen-first point of view is what gives the line its identity.
