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.
Years ago I never used to bother with my skincare routine. I would literally wash my makeup off with soap, or even worse, in the shower the next morning after sleeping in it all night. Looking back I dread to think how my skin must have looked and felt at the time. It was only…
Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to the Rush Blogger Meet at the House Of Rush organised by the lovely Becky from Lipgloss and Lashes. The House of Rush is situated in central London, right in the heart of Piccadilly. I’d never heard of The House of Rush before, and it seemed different from…
I’ve always loved photography ever since I was a little girl. I just loved taking photos of things, and then learning how to edit them on Photoshop, and just generally looking a good photographs other people have taken. Back when I was at college I did an A level in photography, and whilst doing it…
January has seen some great blog posts this month, it seems like everyone’s stepped up their blogging game lately.

This weekend I decided it was time to have a huge clear out in my room. Not only is it nice to have a nice big spring clean now and then, but also in less than 2 weeks time Chris is moving in with me! We’re going to be living in my parents house for…
One thing I can never have enough of is lipstick. I have a whole drawer of the stuff, in every shade you could imagine. I usually stick to ‘drug store’ lipsticks, but every now and then it’s nice to try out a higher end product. One brand I’ve never really tried anything from, but have…
