Rodan + Fields

So I've been loving Rodan + Fields Reverse Daily Moisturiser with 50+ SPF sunscreen. It literally got rid of the discoloration on my face before I'd even finished the first tube, you can see them mainly on my forehead on the picture below. I will definitely keep using it and it's vegan! Here's a list of products from R+F that are not vegan, everything else is! There is the email from R+F below...
