Ren
recently launched the new Instant Firming Beauty Shot*, a serum aimed
at firming, lifting and tightening the skin in just a few seconds. Now I
do love Ren as a brand they are an all natural brand, no mineral oils,
no parabens and everything I have tried so far I have loved so I knew
this would have a lot to live up to.
The
product itself is rather strange, its a rose scented serum that FYI
smells incredible. I love when brands add that rose scent...its makes me
very happy haha. Anyway completely off track, its a serum that you
apply to the skin and it instantly tightens the skin, I am talking you
can feel it tightening the skin. Its like a magic cream. As I am 24 I
don't have any wrinkles as of yet. It pulls the skin tight and closes up
my pores..I know it sounds too good to be true but that is literally
what it does.
Now
the application is a little strange, you apply it and its rather weird
to apply, its not like most serums because it dries very fast so I have
found doing it in quick stages is best. Once on it feels very sticky and
tacky for about 5-10 seconds then it leaves the skin feeling super soft
and almost creates a base of good looking skin. Ren have said this is
meant to have long term effects as well as instant effects, saying that
the skin only stays tight for around 5-6 hours, in you head are you
picturing you face ending up all droopy as it wears off....no! that
totally just popped into my head. It does say you can gently apply over
your make-up if your wearing any to refresh the look, but I haven't
tried that yet.
The
serum itself is high in hyaluronic acid, which Ren have said they have
made it into a more potent form which therefore hydrates the skin. The
product is suitable for sensitive skin the only problem is the scent I
personally love it but if you hate that rose scent this could turn you
off.
Overall
this is a good serum, it does tighten the skin and matches all its
claim, long term effects I can't comment on as I have only been using
for over 2 weeks but if your looking for a magic serum that gives you
that 'youthful' look this is your guy. It is pricey at £48 but if you
are willing to splurge go for it.
Tell me what you think of it?
