Hey guys! Welcome back to my channel. So today I'm going to be doing another
skincare related video and I'm going to be doing another video for my one brand
facial series. If you haven't seen the first video, the first video I did was
focusing on Pixi skincare, which I will link down in the description box if you
would like to see that. Essentially the series is where I pick one brand and I
do a facial or a skincare routine just solely using the products from that
brand today. I'm going to be doing a video focusing on the brand Ren. Now
Ren is a brand I have tried in the past I do have some of their products and
recently I was sent a collection of products from Ren to try which I was
really grateful for and I thought that I would put them in this series. Because I
really like the brand Ren and I love their ethics and their ethos. For those
of you who have never tried Ren before. Ren is a Swedish based skincare brand
and their whole ethos is clean beauty and actually Ren translated into swedish
means clean and they are a cruelty-free brand who does not test on animals or
use any animal derived ingredients in their products. Their bottles are 100
percent recyclable and they do not include any parabens either. So in
terms of ethics they are a pretty wholesome brand. Without further ado I'm
gonna jump on straight into this video and show you all some Ren skincare
products. So let's going. I just want to make a quick disclaimer.
I have tried out all the things I'm gonna show you in preparation for this
video just so I can talk a little bit more about them and about how I found
that they've made my skin feel. The first thing I'm going to be using today is
from their Evercalm range and it's their ever Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel.
This is made with neroli and chamomile which help to serve the skin and also
contains something in it called Beta Glucan. I hope I pronounced that right
and it's derived from yeast so it's a really soothing ingredient for the skin.
This is of course like a gel as you would imagine this is something that's
really nice to use in the morning or in the evening if you've not got any makeup
on and you just want to really gently cleanse your skin. I'm gonna take a bit
of this on my ELF face brush and I'm just gonna gently work this into my skin
and it just has the most beautiful delicate scent. It smells very
natural like it smells like a natural spa when your first walk in. I can really
smell the neroli coming through in this and it's just such a treat to use on
your skin. If you really want to give your skin a nice little pamper this is
just gorgeous to use and I really find with my combination skin when I've got
blemishes when I've got irritation it got redness it just really helps to just
gently soothe the skin. I will just point out with this cleanser it is not a foam
cleanser so it won't foam up it is very much a gel cleanser. I mean you do get a
small amount of foam. But that's not really what it does, so that's just something to
bare in mind if that's the sort of texture that you either don't like or you do like. Now
I'm just gonna remove that with a damp flannel. So that's the cleanser done and
my skin always just feels really lovely and clean. But it doesn't have that
squeaky, like dry texture that sometimes I get with other cleansers. It just feels
like it's really gently cleanse the skin but it hasn't made it feel irritated or
like it stripped the skin of all its natural moisture and natural oils. It's
just a really nice subtle cleanser. So I think it's a really lovely product
and I would love to try more from that particular range. Just because I like the
ingredients that it has in there. I think it works really well for my skin type.
Next thing I'm going to be using is from their Radiance range and it is the Ready
Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic. So this is essentially a liquid exfoliator in a
bottle. So it's like a toner but it's got ingredients in there that will help to
lift dead skin. It's packed with lactic acid, so it really helps just gently
remove any dead skin cells any sebum I'm going to be taking some of this and
pumping it onto a cotton pad and I'm just gonna be gently applying that to my
skin. It has a really nice orangey, zesty scent. It does feel a bit tingly
sometimes when you first put it on it's not uncomfortable sensation, but it's
almost like it's telling you that it's working and that you can
actually feel it doing its job. My skin always looks brighter after I use this and
always find that it always has a bit more of a radiance to it. It does say is
for all skin types as well. So that's the toner done and I really think you can
see that my skin looks a bit brighter it kind of looks like it's taken it off all
the remnants of dead skin that have been left on. Because I don't actually exfoliate
my skin with an exfoliator every day. so I think this is a really good
substitute. Liquid exfoliators are actually better for your skin if you get
dry skin because they don't strip the skin as much. The next product I'm gonna be
trying is one that I've actually tried before and it's one that my mum
absolutely swears by she loves this product and it's again from their
Radiance range and it is the Glycol Lactic Radiance Renewal Mask. Now this is
a bioactive mask and it's designed to help to renew the complexion, to brighten
the complexion and to reduce signs of aging like fine lines. This is packed
with fruit extracts you've got lemon, papaya, pineapple, mango. This is a good
mask if you want to give your skin a little bit of a boost. If maybe you're
going out for a night out and you really want to add a little bit of back into
your skin. If you just want something that's really quick and easy to use. You
apply it to your skin you leave it on for 10 minutes and then you rinse it off.
I'm just going to pump some of this onto my hand and it's like a jelly consistency.
I'm just gonna smooth that onto my skin. You can really smell the fruit extracts
in there it smells like a fruit jelly, so nice. It feels very comfortable on the
skin. I know some people say that this product can feel like it's tingling when
they first put it on. I've never found that myself with this I don't really
find that I have any reactions or irritation with this product. Set a timer
for 10 minutes. Siri okay so my timer is set for 10 minutes and then I'm just
gonna rinse this off. You can leave it on for longer. I know my mum leaves it on for
about half an hour when she uses it. But I don't really have the time to do that
today. So I'm just going on for 10 minutes. Now Ren does advise that this
is good for all skin types. But they do advise against using it if you have
sensitive skin or if you've just shaved your skin. So if you do get irritation
quite badly or if you have an adverse reaction to certain things that have a
lot of acid in them then just be aware of that
the first try this out. I'm gonna leave this on for 10 minutes and I'll be back
with you shortly.
So my 10 minutes are now up and I'm now
gonna remove the face mask and show you the end result. So the face mask is now
done I really really love the way it makes my skin look. I feel like it really
helped to improve the texture of my skin and I say that if you really want
something to just give your skin a bit of a boost and you haven't got a lot of
time and you want something really quick and easy. This is definitely the way to
go because you could literally wash your face put this on for 10 minutes while
you're having your breakfast and doing whatever and then get in the shower and
wash this off and you're ready to go for the day. This is definitely one of my
favorite things from this whole entire video that I've tried. The next thing I'm
gonna try out is again from their Radiance range and it's the Glow Daily
Vitamin C Gel Cream. Now the unique thing about this is that it contains vitamin C.
But Ren have made it in a way where people who've got sensitive skin can use
it. Whenever I've used vitamin C skin care in the past I always find that my
skin gets a little bit too dry or it can get red. This I've used this quite a few
times now and I will always say that it doesn't make my skin feel irritated.
It contains 0.5 Vitamin C, to help brighten the skin. It's also got
magnesium in there, to help improve the skins luminosity and something else
which I've never heard of before called Tara Pods which are antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory for the skin. So I'm just gonna pump a small amount of this
onto-oh that was not a small amount definitely not. On to the back of my hand
and just smooth this onto my skin and it does have a light kind of citrusy scent.
It's a nice formula, but it really sinks into the skin it's got the right amount
of hydration for your skin without making it feel like you've got excess
amount of product on. Its really sunk into the skin
really quickly and I just think it's a really nice light moisturizer really
nice for the summer time and speaking of summer time actually the last thing I'm
gonna be using for this video today is their Clean Screen Mineral SPF 30
Mattifying Face Sunscreen this it has no chemical UV filters in there and it's a
clean sunscreen they want to
to make the cleanest sunscreen that they could. It also contains passion fruit
extracts and seeds in there so it's kind of got a little bit of a fruity scent to
it. Now it's not overly sunny out there at the moment but for those of you who
know about skincare you will know that the UVA ray which is the aging ray is
present all year round. The UVB ray may go when summer goes. But the UVA ray
which gives you fine lines and wrinkles it's always here and that's why you need
to put on an SPF. Because that's the thing that makes you age. You're welcome!
So this has a really light feeling to it, it is very matte it doesn't look like you
slathered your skin in lots of product which is something I hate about so many
sunscreens or SPFs or face sunscreens. You always feel like you've got so much
product on. But this one you instantly put it on and it feels like it's just
sinking into the skin and drying which is why I really like this product. So it
would be really good if you've got oily skin and it's an SPF 30 that's quite a
decent number for the summer time so that concludes the end of my latest one
brand facial series. I really hope you enjoyed it. Do let me know in the
