MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
I have heard of the brand before, but haven’t tried any of their products. I actually thought their products were more expensive than they actually are. The name REN just sounds boujee to me. This toner is recommended for daily use (morning/evening) after you have washed/cleansed your face. To apply it, you saturate a cotton pad and swipe across your clean face and neck (avoiding eye area). I already use a toner and I always choose a mist/spray product as it is easier and quicker to use. This REN product does interest me though. It also has a light lemon scent. I’m not overly interested in the promised glow, but some of the seven skin benefits are attractive to me so I will give this product a go once I’ve finished up my current one.
 
So far, I’ve noticed all of the products that I have unboxed from this calendar are red, pink or orange themed. I don’t know if this is on purpose. The little ribbon on the calendar that you use to pull open the door is pink and so is the base on the inside of the little numbered drawers, so I wonder if it is to tie that into the design.
 
You can purchase the REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic for £27.00 ($37.00) from RenSkincare.com.

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...
