As you've seen, I'm seriously loving skincare at the moment, and so when I was browsing Marks and Spencers sometime around Black Friday and saw this set from REN for half price, I was ecstatic.

I've been eyeing up REN skincare for a while now, after using the little samples from Space NK, but could never decide which product I actually wanted to take the leap and buy a full size of. So, when I saw this trio set of full size products for the amazing price of £49 (RRP £100!), I jumped at the chance. The selection sounded ideal for what I was looking for and I decided there and then on the spot to buy it immediately.

As you can see, the products come in a cute box (which I've already recycled as a nail varnish container), and the set includes the Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask (50ml) - you know how much I love my glycolic!, the Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial (75ml), and the Keep Young and Beautiful Instant Firming Beauty Shot (30ml). 

I've used all three products now and can easily say I love all of them. The glycolic mask is only to be used once or week or so, and leaves your skin feeling so cleansed, so long as you wash it off properly. The flash rinse facial is to be used every 3 days and is a rougher texture mask that leaves your skin feeling ever so exfoliated. I used the keep young serum every night and apply it as the first product, so the base layer. Even when my skin has been playing up because of bad eating, I can see the blemish-free areas are clear, bright and glowing. 

Even for the full £100, this set isn't a bad deal, and I'd definitely recommend getting your hands on it if your skincare routine needs a refresh.

The set's exclusive to M&S and is currently unavailable to buy online, but definitely check your nearest large store.

A.M.

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel - Lovely texture, sinks into the skin nicely and leaves your skin feeling plump and hydrated but not too 'wet' or greasy.

Nip+Fab Viper Venom Eye Fix - Typical rollerball eye roll-on gel. Comes out quite wet but feels refreshing in the morning. Doesn't sink in very fast or easily, however.

Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado - To top up the eye roll-on. A more intense and creamy treatment that feels luxurious and sinks into the skin nicely when patted on gently. I'm all about preventing them eye wrinkles.

 P.M.

Nip+Fab Glycolic Fix Serum - A gel-like serum that sinks into the skin rapidly and leaves you with a slight 'tightened' effect. Really noticed results with this product. Brightened, tightened and more glowing. Big fan of glycolic acid here!

Nip+Fab Viper Venom Extreme Night Fix - I wanted another night treatment to pair with the serum. This one is more of a creamy consistency and thus adds a bit of moisture into my night routine. Thoughts and results to come in time after further use!

Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream - Apply this every night to blemishes. Works a treat and reduces redness and swelling, as well as healing scabs. 

Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado - Apply this both day and night. 

A.M. & P.M.

Boots Exfoliating Face Scrub with Tea Tree & Witch Hazel - Cheapie that I simply use to give my face a thorough rinse and exfoliate when I'm in the shower. Really feels like it's getting all the grime off your skin and leaves you feeling fresh. 

Anthony Glycolic Facial Cleanser - My daily cleanser that I use pre-skincare both day and night to remove traces of make-up or general grime. Creamy consistency that leaves your skin feeling plump and fresh - can tingle slightly occasionally if you have an open blemish. I'd recommend avoiding the eyes with this one.  

Please do let me know what your skincare routine consists of. I'm super keen to expand my collection and bring in some new wonders to my routine. Seriously open to any night serum or moisturiser recommendations!
