Whenever there is a new release from REN Clean Skincare I am always as equally intrigued as I am excited to find out what the product is, what it does and why I need it in my life. New to the Perfect Canvas family is the Clean Jelly Oil Cleanser* (£25) and I have already ordered another tube.
Cleansing is definitely one of my favourite parts of my skincare routine, especially of an evening when I get to take the day off and begin to wind down from a day in the office. This Clean Jelly Oil Cleanser is described as being an all-new makeup removing, 100% naturally derived oil-based jelly cleanser that melts makeup, impurities and SPF.
Perfect for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin, this three-phase cleanser is, as you might expect from REN, it is packed with three amazing oils, the first is Sunflower Seed Oil which not only protects skin’s natural moisture barrier to prevent continued dryness, it also contains Vitamin E which is an antioxidant helps to protect skin from free radicals and from adverse effects of the sun. The second oil is Meadowfoam Seed Oil which helps to replenish the skin’s barrier with essential fatty acids Omega 3 and 6. Finally, we have Grape Seed Oil which is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, so it helps restore skin health and protect against free radicals. REN also include Glycerin which locks in hydration as you cleanse your skin.
Unlike some cleansers, this one should be used on dry skin, to use, you need a small amount which should be warmed between the palms of your hand until it becomes an oil. Then apply, using circular motions over your entire face, it is gentle enough to be used near your eyes. The oil this jelly turns too is rich, luxurious and it feels divine on the skin, as the oil comes into contact with warm water it emulsifies into a milky texture and once your skin is clean, you wipe away with a cloth. I always judge a cleanser on how it makes my skin feel after using it, if it strips my skin of moisture and leaves it feeling dry and taut then it is a no from me, but this cleanser does neither of those, in fact, what it does is leave my skin feeling hydrated to the touch, as well as being free from all my skincare and makeup that had been on my face.
As part of RENs pledge to become Zero Waste by 2021, in that all of their packagings will be 100% recycled, recyclable and reusable. this Jelly Oil Cleanser is housed in a 50% post-consumer recycled tube with a 100% post-consumer recycled cap.
