![]() If you look at MLMs, you will see that the prices are generally way out of line: R+F, Younique, Mary Kay, and the like are more expensive than mid-priced skincare, sometimes far more expensive, and they are not better quality - Younique in particular is famously low-quality. One thing it absolutely isn't: it isn't better than things you could buy off the shelf, because if it were, someone else would be copying it and charging less, which is how capitalism works. ![]() It could, of course, be both, an inferior product at an inflated price. In an MLM, there's a fourth level of profit that has to be extracted, and this means that compared to something you'd buy on the shelf, either the MLM product is inferior and sells at a similar price, or it's a similar quality and is overpriced to cover this additional markup. When you buy a skincare product from a store, there are essentially three levels of markup: the suppliers of raw materials make a profit, the company makes a profit, and the vendor makes a profit. What this means for you is that the price you pay for the products includes all these commissions. It's almost impossible to make money: 97 per cent of people in the company make $10K or less a year, usually far less. Rodan + Fields is a multi-level marketing, or MLM, company, which means that its salespeople can't make real money from selling - they get commissions based on how many salespeople they have in what's called their downline, so the only way to make a living is to recruit as many people as possible, who in turn have to recruit, and so on.
