I bought a glow gift set from REN and it’s lovely. I’ve not tried the mask yet but really like the AHA tonic and the vit C cream which is a really nice texture. My skin was terrible a couple of weeks ago and it looks so much better.

Unless they’ve reformulated the mask, it’s very very sticky.

Oh I hope it's not sticky. I wondered if the vit c might be sticky because it say's it's a "gel cream" but it's nice.

I love that REN moisturiser too. The mask is a bit sticky, it’s mostly like an oily paste, but I like it. I need to try the AHA tonic.

I want to try the Vit C gel cream but I have a million day time moisturisers to use first. I really like REN, and mostly for the pretty packaging.

My mum has been very generous and has sent me a full size one of these. I cannot wait to wash my face and try it. Given the claims and the price, I am fully expecting to have the skin of a baby within a week.

That looks like it will smell lovely and make your skin smell lovely too.

I used it last night and it made my skin feel lovely. I have the micellar mousse from the range too (from my birthday present) and they both smell great.

I bought a jar of Decleor Green Mandarin night balm after trying it in the spa. It made the back of my hand look fabulous. :) Also smelled divine.

As well as spending all my advantage points on perfume (Chanel Cristalle), I’ve also bought myself another Lady Rose lipstick in M&S because all their Rosie for Autograph stuff is 30% off. I also got a mascara from the same range though I know not to get attached since they’re bound to be discontinuing it all soon.

And I got a chubbystick for eyes in Lavish Lilac so I can be like Beab.

There are some discount codes for Oskia, Emma Hardie etc. on CH’s site right now in case anybody needs to replace anything. I’m down to the dregs on my cleansing balm so I’ve ordered a massive one for 20% off. (I get paid tomorrow and I’ve already spent it all :lol:.)

My skin is so dry and feels paper thin at the moment so I’ve been used Clinique Moisture surge and despite the millions of rave reviews it’s done fuck all for my face so far.

I think that is better for combination-dehydrated skin, maybe? What else are you using, e.g. do you use a serum first?

Have you tried a good facial oil? Omega one from Ren ? https://www.renskincare.com/products/vi ... m-skin-oil
