RENs New Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial With Water Activated Vitamin C

I recieved RENs new 1 Min Flash Rinse last week which was a lovely treat. Always great to get some gratis to try out new products. I was looking forward to trying out this product as being a busy mum of three boys the 1 minute facial lured me in immediately and couldn't wait to try it.

What it says,  A transforming treatment that instantly revitalizes and visibly rejuvenated the skin.
                       Formulated with the potent water-activated vitamin c it will neutralize urban grey in a flash leaving skin looking firm,toned and smooth, while reducing the signs of  fatigue, photo-aging and skin imperfections. Skin instantly glows with renewed health and radiance.

How to apply,  Use every 3 days. Apply over face and neck massaging with circular movements.
                         Dampen finger tips with water and massage again to activate the vitamin c. Leave for a minute. Rinse thoroughly.


I have used  1 min flash rinse twice (one week)  I applied about a ten pence piece worth on my skin massaged and left for one minute. Product has a lovely light orange smell. It's gentle as my skin seems to like it. Skin appears slightly brighter and smoother. Which does minimize the appearance of open pores and fine lines. As for  photo-aging ( dark spots)  and skin imperfections that would be something that you would have to see after continuous use of the product.

What I would say is this product would be great for a quick skin pick me up when your getting ready for a night out or going away. Also for brides that have left it too late to start a new skin regime prior to getting married. To use the night before. Overall it's a good product that is quick and easy to use. Good for all year round particularly in the winter months when the lack of sunlight can make our skin appear quite dull.


RENs Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial  is £32 for 75ml

Silky Soft Sun Kissed Skin....

Prepping skin before we go away to our hols is so important to keep our skin in tip top condition and to achieve a lovely long lasting healthy tan without shedding it like a reptile! We look forward to our summer hols for months organising our summer wardrobe based on what will look best showing off our newly tanned skin yet if we're honest we some how over look or at best spend too little time on preparing our skin for the stress we put our skin through to achieve that golden glow.



I recommend to start with exfoliating all over a least a good two to three weeks prior to hols. I find twice a week is enough for me. I'm using Sai-Sei mineral loofah body polish soap to gently buff away at my skin. Contains minerals and moisturising glycerine with a piece of natural Loofah sponge. 

In the summer months I prefer using an oil to hydrate my body, it's light weight and the skin absorbs it quicker than a body moisturiser leaving your skin satiny soft. Nuxe multi purpose dry oil is my favourite. I adore the scent which for me capsolates  the smell of summer! You can use it on your face,body and hair as it's a light dry oil made up of six precious plant oils and vitamin e. Also without preservatives too.

Now onto our pins that are hidden for a good part of the year then suddenly they are on full view for everyone to see. 'This Works Perfect Legs Skin Miracle' is perfect for our legs. Whilst looking after skins imperfections such as scars and discolourations with vitamin c and e to help skin tone it also contains Arnica to help with bruising. It transforms skin with an instant sun kissed glow that you can wash off too. As it's a serum it absorbs the skin super quick. Smells delicious.

Last but not least our feet! Starting by getting them prepped and ready for full on exposure.To make exfoliating my tootsies that bit easier I love to soak them in Margeret Dabbs foot soak first. Then once they are free of all that old hard skin I then treat them to Margaret Dabbs intensive hydrating foot lotion. Has a lovely lemony fresh scent. They use emu oil and lots of fantastic ingredients to treat our tootsies to the best.
