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.
Now it’s February everyone’s focus has switched from getting fit and being healthy, to all things Valentine’s Day. I find that Valentine’s Day gifts can often get a little samey, with the usual chocolates and flowers still proving to be popular. Although this year I’ve spotted a couple of different gifts, and thought I’d share them with you in case…
So a while a go I found myself in Boots swatching away at lipsticks when suddenly one of them caught my eye. It was the perfect deep pinky lavandery shade, without any shimmer or frost. It just stood out to me from all the other lipstick shades on my hand, Rimmel London’s Vintage Pink, I had to…
Technically as it’s the end of August, it’s not really summer anymore. I say technically because I’ve still got a wardrobe of summer clothes I haven’t touched this year, and I’m pretty sure there’s only been about 4 days where it’s been hot. Regardless of it not being that warm, I’ve still been wearing a…
Every year I love being nosey on everyone’s blogs to see what they got for Christmas, and this year I decided to join in and share what I got so you can be equally as nosey ;). I had a rather lovely Christmas this year as my grandparents that I hardly get to see were…
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…
So I’m now onto week six of my 100 day spending ban, and I’m now approaching the half way mark. As I mentioned last week I’m feeling a bit deflated with it all. Despite doing fairly well during my spending ban with not buying any beauty products, and getting myself a job, I’ve still not managed to…
