REN Glow and Protect Serum

The newest launch from REN Skincare is the Glow And Protect Serum and I have been raving about it since the day it arrived. For me, REN can do no wrong, there isn't a single product I have disliked and I have tried a lot!
REN Glow and Protect Serum
The REN Glow and Protect Serum is described as being a Superfruit serum with antioxidants to help brighten and even skin tone and it sits within REN's Radiance category alongside the likes of Ready, Steady, Glow Daily AHA Tonic, Overnight Glow Dark Spot Sleeping Cream, AHA Smart Renewal Body Serum and a whole host of other products, including one I have my eye on - Satin Perfection BB Cream.
A lightweight superfruit serum clinically proven to significantly brighten and even skin in just 14 days, with protective antioxidants to help protect skin from damage caused by free radicals.
As always with REN, their product is always clinically proven and in the case of this serum, it is proven to visibly reduce the signs of photoageing - this includes things like fine lines and wrinkles, dullness and pigmentation and it does it all without the irritation.  If ever you are unsure about a REN product, it is worth looking at what the clinical studies show, in the case of this Glow and Protect Serum:
  • 95% skin is smoother after 14 days*​
  • 91% skin looks brighter after 14 days*​
  • 91% agreed skin texture felt less rough after 14 days* ​
  • 84% complexion has a natural glow after 14 days*​
  • 88% complexion looks healthier after 14 days*​
  • 96% skin feels more supple after 14 days*​
*Consumer study conducted on 85 men and women​

So what makes this serum just a little bit mega? Well it combines three types of Vitamin C alongside moisture-boosting Glycogen and Hyaluronic Acid to give that ultimate radiant glow.

Key Ingredients:

  • 3 types of Vitamin C to brighten, even skin tone, reduce pigmentation
  • Hyaluronic acid to hydrate, smooth and plump the skin.
  • Kakadu Plum which contains 100x more Vitamin C than oranges, thus helping brighten and even skin tone,
  • Dragon Fruit : packed with prebiotics & essential minerals which help protect and strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier,
  • Pomegranate: rich in Omega 5 which helps to soothe the skin
  • antioxidant-rich Polyphenols 
  • Vitamin E both help to protect skin from damaged caused by environmental aggressors.
Quite the impressive list of ingredients right there! On the skin, this serum is very  much a serum. It isn't overly thick but it also isn't so runny that it is like water, it has that perfect in-between texture which makes it easy to apply to the skin and one which easily sinks into the skin with very little effort.

As you can see from the swatches above, there is a slight hint of orange to the texture, though that does not transfer to the skin. You need just the smallest amount of this Glow and Protect Serum pressed onto freshly cleansed skin. Thankfully, the bottle does have a pump dispenser, so one pump is more than enough for your needs.

This is a serum that can be used both AM and PM, though my preference is definitely AM because I like to use the Retinoid Serum in the evening (review coming on that beauty).   I absolutely love this serum, which I am sure is obvious, for anyone who is wanting to add a product to their routine to activate that glow, but you have slightly sensitive skin, then this is one to try.  It is priced at £50 for 30ml, so on the pricey side, but not the most expensive serum that you can buy.

The REN Glow and Protect serum is available now from all your favourite beauty places to shop such as Cult Beauty, Space NK, M&S, Lookfantastic and of course REN themselves and as mentioned, it is priced at £50.
