Rodan + Fields Announces New Path to Growth

Rodan + Fields (“R+F” or “the Company”)—a brand known for delivering proven results in skincare and haircare through science-backed, dermatologist-created products—today announced a simplified business model to unlock growth and reach new customers.
Starting September 1, the Company will move away from the multi-level direct selling model to streamline the customer and Consultant experience.
This new model, which will be supported by a broader array of marketing and advertising across traditional channels and social media to complement Consultants’ advocacy, will better position R+F to meet customers where they are discovering and buying beauty products.

Consultants will begin participating in the new Affiliate program, which will only be available for existing R+F Consultants.
Under the new Affiliate program, existing R+F Consultants who continue to sell R+F products will receive increased commissions on customer sales and product discounts, resulting in over 90% of current R+F Consultants having a higher earning potential based on their current sales performance.
Recruitment and commissions Consultants receive through product sales by those they have recruited will no longer be a component of R+F’s model, resulting in a simplified Consultant experience.
Customers will find it easier to browse, discover, and engage with the R+F brand across its digital channels, and continue to benefit from the

Rodan + Fields Faces A Second Lawsuit Over Eyelash Enhancer

CBS NEWS– Skincare products company Rodan + Fields is facing a second federal class action lawsuit alleging that the multi-level marketing company failed to disclose the harmful side effects of a key ingredient in its Lash Boost eye serum which it claims gives users “the appearance of lush, longer-looking lashes.”
As in an April 13 lawsuit, the new case singles out isopropyl cloprostenate, a type of medication called a prostaglandin analog that’s used to treat glaucoma and other eye diseases. It has been linked to dry eye, eye irritation, eye inflammation, eye redness, and macular edema, the latest lawsuit says, and had the lead plaintiff, Melissa Ryan of San Diego, known about the “documented health risks” of the chemical, she wouldn’t have purchased Lash Boost or would have paid less for it.
“R+F (Rodan + Fields) further claims that for ‘best results,’ use Lash Boost daily for 8 weeks, which would likely require a customer to buy at least two tubes of the costly (retail price of about $150) Lash Boost and further exposing the consumer to potential serious health effects,” according to the court filing.
Attorneys for Ryan and a spokesperson for Rodan + Fields couldn’t immediately be reached for comment. San Francisco-based

Rodan + Fields Hit With A Class Action Lawsuit

Skincare product company Rodan + Fields faces a federal class action lawsuit accusing it of violating state consumer protection laws and engaging in fraudulent and unfair marketing of its Lash Boost eye serum.
Rodan + Fields says its $150 Lash Boost gives users “the appearance of lush, longer-looking lashes.” But the suit claims the multilevel marketing company failed to disclose the side effects of a key ingredient in Lash Boost.
The ingredient in question is a chemical called isopropyl cloprostenate, which is a type of medication called a prostaglandin analog. This one is used to treat eye conditions such as glaucoma.
Rodan + Fields omitted information to Lash Boost buyers about the side effects of prostaglandin analogs that are well-known to eye doctors, according to the April 13 court filing in a U.S. District Court in Oakland, California.
“Consumers of Lash Boost … have experienced serious side effects, including change(s) in iris color, eyelid drooping, itchy eyes, eye/lid discoloration, thinning and loss of eyelashes/loss of eyelash hair, eye sensitivity, eye infections, and vision impairment,” the filing says.
Moreover, the suit notes that Allergan’s Latisse, the only Food and Drug Administration-approved medication for “lash enhancement” also contains a prostaglandin analog, but Allergan fully discloses the potential side

Rodan + Fields Product Is Facing A Serious Lawsuit

According to The Beauty Authority:
Just a few days ago, Rodan + Fields, the supercharged social media–fueled skin care empire founded by dermatologists Drs. Katie Rodan and Kathy Fields, was awarded the title of the number-one beauty brand in both the United States and North America by Euromonitor, a market research company.
With sales revenue reaching into the billions and women from coast to coast singing their praises about the skin-transforming effects of the multiprong kits (Facebook and Instagram before-and-afters further drive home the point that they really work), it was only a matter of time before the beloved brand received some slack from users. But this goes beyond normal Internet trolling that typically involves slamming the efficacy of the brand, as a potential class-action lawsuit is being brought to light. 
In 2016, Rodan + Fields (or R+F as its fans and multitier marketing sales reps refer to it as) launched one of its biggest hits to date, Lash Boost ($150). Containing keratin, biotin, panthenol, petides and a slew of other ingredients, the no-prescription-required lash product purportedly generated over $200 million in sales in just one year. 
While some users, like the four plaintiffs who brought forward the suit claiming they experienced reactions after using the product including “bumps on the eyes, flaky patches, burning, swelling, crusting and pain, among other things” and also
