Common Questions about the REVERSE Intensive Brightening Toner
These are the most common questions we receive from customers about skin brightening and the REVERSE Intensive Brightening Toner. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact us at rfconnectionau@rodanandfields.com.

HOW LONG CAN I USE REVERSE REGIMEN?
There is no limit to how long you can use the REVERSE Regimen. However, once you have addressed your skin dullness and/or discolouration concerns, you may choose to transition to another Rodan + Fields Regimen if you have additional skincare concerns. Frequently, REVERSE Regimen Customers choose to transition to our REDEFINE Regimen to address the appearance of lines, pores and loss of firmness, but may transition back to REVERSE Regimen as needed for brighter skin.

I HAVE JUST A FEW DARK MARKS. CAN I USE THE REVERSE REGIMEN ON JUST THOSE SPOTS?
Visible brown spots on the skin’s surface indicate more damage below. If dullness or discolouration is your primary concern, we developed the REVERSE Regimen to be a full-face solution to address both the visible signs of sun damage, as well as those less visible signs.

For those stubborn dark marks and patches that just won’t go away, we suggest using REVERSE Targeted Dark Spot Corrector with your Regimen for boosted results.

IS THERE A SUGGESTED RAMP UP USAGE SCHEDULE WHEN FIRST INTRODUCING THE REVERSE REGIMEN INTO MY ROUTINE?
Even if you are a current user of REVERSE, we encourage you to go through the ramp up process to make sure you don’t experience any unwanted dryness or irritation caused by trying new products.

To ramp up we suggest using the REVERSE Deep Exfoliating Cleanser, REVERSE Intensive Brightening Toner, and REVERSE Tone Correcting Treatment once every other day for the first week. Increase to twice daily as tolerated. Use a gentle cleanser, toner, and moisturiser when not using the Regimen.

Stop use if you experience an allergic reaction.

DOES THE REVERSE REGIMEN PERMANENTLY DIMINISH BROWN SPOTS?
The REVERSE Regimen is designed to address the appearance of uneven skin tone and gently clears away dead, dulling, discoloured skin cells. It does not promise to permanently fade or lighten brown spots and other skin tone unevenness. After using the REVERSE Regimen and obtaining your desired results, if you are extremely diligent about using a sunscreen and limiting exposure to sun, you should be able to maintain your results. However, understand that a single day of unprotected sun exposure can virtually undo months of hard work. Apply sunscreen every day and reapply it every two hours when exposed to sunlight. If you begin to see dull skin developing, return to using the REVERSE Regimen.

I'M USING REVERSE AND MY SKIN IS DRY. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
The REVERSE Regimen brightens with Kojic Acid and Bearberry Extract, and also exfoliates skin with Alpha-hydroxy Acids to gently remove dulling, dead skin cells for a smooth, fresh complexion. This assists in lifting the dark skin cells off the skin to help rapidly develop brighter skin. If skin is feeling dry, we suggest incorporating R+F Active Hydration Serum into your daily morning and evening REVERSE Regimen, applying after Step 2 REVERSE Intensive Brightening Toner and/or using SOOTHE Moisturizing Rescue Cream after REVERSE Tone Correcting Treatment at night.

WHAT PRODUCTS CAN I USE ON THE OFF TIMES WHILE I RAMP UP WITH REVERSE REGIMEN?
We recommend that you use mild cleansers, moisturisers and sunscreens as you ramp up to using the REVERSE Regimen twice a day. Avoid other products containing Retinols, Alpha-hydroxy Acids such as Glycolic, or any scrubs and mechanical brushes, as these can result in irritation. The SOOTHE Regimen is a good option.

CAN REVERSE REGIMEN BE USED ON THE NECK AND DÉCOLLETAGE?
It's not just your face that shows the effects of environmental ageing, so don't stop at your neck when applying the REVERSE Regimen. Make sure to continue onto your décolletage to help reveal brighter skin. However, be aware that the skin is more delicate in areas such as the neck and décolletage, so you may need to reduce the frequency of use.
