REN GLYCOLACTIC RADIANCE RENEWAL MASK | Review

I am writing this review after I have just used the last pumps of it. So, excuse me for the condition of the product itself. Unfortunately, I have lost the cap, but it was still usable, having a kind of secondary stopper which prevented the product from drying out.

I remember seeing this product in a video on YouTube somewhere and I felt that I should try it out. I bought it online and I think it was lookfantastic.com although I am not entirely sure.

Let me just say that this mask was somewhat of a blessing for my skin. It contains a lot of good ingredients such as natural fruit acids from Passion Fruit, Lemon, Grape and Pineapple. It also contains papain which comes from Papaya. They exfoliate the outer layer of the skin, encouraging cell turnover and smoothing fine lines. And, what is great is that it doesn't contain nasty ingredients like parabens, sulfates, mineral oil and other things. 

In a nutshell its is 'A potent bio active peel mask designed to renew the complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines and dramatically improve skin tone.' 

This mask is one of those masks which you see results after the first time you use it. It removes dead skin cells and the skin looks much brighter and radiant the morning after. It deep cleanses the skin and hence prevents congestion and blackheads.

I use this mask once a week mostly although at times I use it twice a weak when my skin is really dull and blah. you just need to apply a generous amount onto clean skin over the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Leave for 10 minutes. Dampen enclosed cloth (or just a muslin cloth) and gently wipe off mask. Rinse skin with warm water. I notice that a light tingling may be experienced during application which isn't that painful or anything. But I do quite enjoy the tingling effect, as it makes me feel that the mask is actually working. 

One last thing. I would suggest this mask to everyone except for sensitive skin types. And do use a sunscreen after using it, even if you use it before bed, use sunscreen the following morning.

You can get REN from Feelunique and from Lookfantastic.

Hope you found it helpful!

Dr. Organic Organic Moroccan Argan Oil Restorative Treatment Conditioner | Review

Cold weather brings dry hair and having a good hydrating treatment is essential in keeping the hair shiny and healthy. I am always looking for a good hair mask/treatment. I do have my favourite picks and all but I like to try out new things. A while back I was invited to a Dr. Organic Event and when we got to choose the products we wanted to try this Organic Moroccan Argan Oil Restorative Treatment Conditioner was the first item I picked.

The Organic Moroccan Argan Oil Restorative Treatment Conditioner is a bioactive hair and scalp treatment. It has an excellent blend of organic oils and extracts which are formulated in such a way to provide a rich and concentrated conditioning balm, which instantly envelopes the keratin fibres found in the hair, with nourishing phospholipids and fatty acids. It nourishes and repairs damaged hair whilst increasing core strength to protect against breakage. The conditioner helps seal in vital moisture to damaged, dull, dry and fly away hair.

Moroccan Argan Oil is an incredibly rich source of vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids. Is has been used by women of the Mediterranean for centuries for both culinary delights and cosmetic purposed. It also works wonders for skin, hair and nails.

Having been a convert for argan oil for the past 2 years, I was way more than interested in trying this product. It is marketed a pre shampoo treatment. I think that this depends entirely on the state of your hair. My hair ends tend to be the driest and hence I tend to concentrate more product there. I do not apply it before shampoo, I prefer to use it as a deep conditioner/mask where I leave for 5-10 minutes, although you can certainly leave it more depending on your hair. Having said that, some people may find it a bit heavy on the hair, in which case I suggest using it as a pre shampoo treatment, which will still give the hair its moisture but to a lesser degree. I am quite sceptical when it comes to applying products on the scalp. Mine gets pretty bad build so I don’t apply heaps of products there. It does help to get rid of the dry flakes that sometimes build on the scalp.

The product retails for €16.87. I hope you found this review helpful and if you want more information on the products and from where you can get them kindly check the links here!

Happy week!
