I was recently sent a couple of products from the brand to try out and so I thought I would tell you all about them (not to mention a 20% off code & FREE £30 kit* scroll to bottom for deets!).
I'm almost 30. Let's face it, gravity is starting to have it's evil way with my skin (and other things but 'imma leave that for another day...) and I need all the help I can get in terms of keeping my skin supple, hydrated and wrinkle free.
So let's talk about the REN Clean Skincare Flash Hydro-Boost Instant Plumping Emulsion. This has Hyaluronic Acid and Xylitol which helps to draw in water and locking it into the skin, meaning your skin stays hydrated. In terms of ingredients, I'm clueless. I know a few 'super ingredients' that I should look for in a good skincare product. Both Hyaluronic Acid and Xylitol are in there, so I had high hopes for the product.
I don't use this in the morning because makeup ontop is a little bit too 'glowy'. Instead, I use this every evening (unless I've had a few drinks and have forgotten that not all liquid is meant to be consumed....) so that it has the whole night to work into my skin and by the morning my skin feels incredibly smooth. A small amount goes a long way, It is very 'creamy' and one full pump will cover my entire face (I have a big face, just sayin'). It feels almost like a balm when you're applying it, and thankfully there is no stickyness or greasyness.
The REN Clean Skincare Flash Hydro-Boost Instant Plumping Emulsion genuinely does 'plump' the skin in an instant. I like to use this instead of a serum, I don't feel the need to use a serum or dry oil when I have this, it's truly a brilliant product and does exactly as it says on the box.
Moving onto the second product I was sent. The REN Vita mineral daily supplement moisturising cream.
This is a day cream full of anti antioxidants and vitamins that help to protect and energise the skin. Again, a single pump of this covers my entire face and unlike the flash hydro boost, I use this in the morning before applying my makeup.
I put this on my face right after cleansing and work it into the skin. It absorbs almost instantly and whilst this is definitely hydrating, it's not too glowy, which means this is the perfect makeup primer.
My skin feels smooth and almost as If it has a protective shield on it. At the end of the day when I take my makeup off, my skin usually feels pretty dry but since using this, I've noticed it feels quite hydrated. I've noticed fewer dry patches and even a few less blemishes.
I'm pretty sure these will be right up your street, so REN have kindly given my readers 20% off the vita minerals range using code 'VITA' and to top it off, if you spend £40 or more, you'll get a free superhero kit worth more than £30 using code 'SUPERHERO'. The deal is active between 12th-18th September.
Hope you love the range as much as I do!
