REN Light Medium BB Cream - Review

A little while ago my mum gave me this product to try.



As someone who isn't normally a fan of foundation and makeup,  however I am 100% converted to BB creams, assuming that others are as good as this one. This is so far the only BB cream I have tried and I think its amazing.



When you squirt this out of the bottle it is quite dark orange and my instant thoughts are that I'm going to end up looking like Donatella Versace, however although it comes out dark, it's a totally different colour on my skin. It is so clever, it would seem that it adjusts to match my skin tone somehow. I suppose it's just a diluted version of a foundation? whatever the formulation one thing I'm sure of is that it works for me.


The coverage is great, it looks really smooth and natural and isn't like a mask sitting on top of my skin.


Another positive is that it's light, like a moisturiser, it allows my skin to breathe.


The price tag is £28 for 50ml, which seems fairly expensive, however this product does go a long way and for the final result it's definitely worth it.


I would really love to try some more products from this company.


What have you tried? please share your experiences below, maybe you have tried a different REN product? or maybe a BB cream from another brand? Whatever it is I would love to hear from you.

Freebies from 12 June - 26 June


I know it's been a little while since I put up a freebie post, I've been waiting for them to mount up and here they are.
1. Lacoste perfume sample- came from a link found on www.freestufffinder.co.uk
2. Again, so did the PG tips tea bag, which when you open it also has a 50p coupon
3. The Sunbites crackers came from SOPOST, I applied for these a good few weeks ago now, me and my other half did - but only he received a pack
4. The little bag full of sachets came from Germaine de Capuccini, for this I completed some questions about my skin type and the samples of the corresponding products were sent - this is great as you are getting exactly what you need. I will be giving these a try soon. To complete the questionnaire about your skin and hopefully receive some samples here is the link - http://germaine-de-capuccini.co.uk/skincare-expert/
