If you follow my blog under a close microscope you may have noticed the increase of mentions of skin care products recently. Lately I’ve learnt the benefits of a proper skincare routine and I’m starting to invest in more high end skin care products. I never used used to believe that high end skin care could be worth the money, I always thought that there would be a cheap alternative that would do the exact same job. It’s only when I started investing in Origins products that I saw a difference in my skin compared to high street alternatives that I decided that maybe skin care was worth spending the money on.
REN was always a brand I’d heard good things about, and has been high up on my wish list of brands to try out, but when it came to buying something from REN, I had no idea where to start. I then spoke to one of my friends, and REN addicts, who luckily for me had the same skin type as me and so told me about the products that have helped her out. One product that she raved about was the REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask, saying that her skin had never looked better since using this. I was rather hesitant to get my hands on this face mask because for the £30 price tag, I wasn’t sure if it would be the answer to my skins prayers, but my friend reassured me it would help. So feeling £30 lighter I decided to give the REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask a go.
Face masks are probably one of my favourite skin care products to use. They feel like a great treat after a long day, and really help out skin if it’s been feeling a little a dull. So when my REN order turned up I was pretty excited to try out my new face mask straight away. I normally stick to cleansing or exfoliating face masks so I hadn’t tried one like this before and didn’t really know what to expect. This REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask is designed to renew the complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines and dramatically improve skin tone. Now I can’t really say if it’s reduced the appearance of fine lines, as at 22 I don’t really have any, but it has improved my skin tone. From the the moment I first used this I noticed a difference straight away, my skin looked amazing. Like I’d had 9 hours sleep and had been eating amazingly healthy for weeks. I don’t think I’ve ever seen my skin look this good.
This face mask is super easy to use, but you should only leave it on for 10 minutes so if you’re the sort of person who likes to leave on face masks for hours this isn’t for you. It’s also not recommenced to use for people who have sensitive skin. But if you don’t fall into that bracket I would highly recommend picking this up! I now use this about twice a week and I’ve seen a huge difference in how my skin looks. So from my first trial of REN products I’m impressed. You’ve made it into my good books REN.
I never really caught on to the BB Cream hype as I never found one that did wonders for me, but I did get on with The Body Shops Vitamin E version. Never really being amazed by BB Creams I wasn’t too fussed when mine ran out and I never repurchased. But then the CC Cream…
I’m always on the hunt for a new mascara that gives me great length and volume, and I’ve tried hundreds on my mission to find ‘the one’. When I was given the chance to try out Bourjois newest one, the Volume 1 Seconde Mascara, of course I said yes, it sounds like my exact type…
I was tagged by the lovely Clare from A Bit Of This And That in her skincare tag and I thought it would be fun to give it a go. I’ve got into skin care over the past year, but I’m still learning a lot about how to look after my skin. I like tags like…
Today my little part of the internet is five. FIVE. A whole five years of sitting and typing away at my laptop and taking photographs of my makeup, crazy. I never thought that I would still be doing this five years later, or that anyone would still be reading about the mundane details of my…
So today’s NOTD post is about Barry M Nail Effects. I know this has been around for ages, but I’ve only just got around to getting nail effects in ‘white frost’ in the last couple of weeks. I love the Barry M Nail Effects, I own all four, I just think there amazing. I think…
I know everyone and their dog probably says this in their monthly favourites, but how is it the end of November already?! This year really has flown by, but now I’m excited it’s the end of November because that means it’s finally socially acceptable to get ridiculously excited about Christmas! This month I’ve been mainly…
