We know Christmas is still a recent memory and the idea of gift-giving may be far from your mind but think ahead to other dates in your diary.
There’s Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day, Mothers’ Day, your bestie’s birthday, and remember the little task of sorting gifts for your bridesmaids.
Step forward REN’s Radiance Brightening Duo, which our editor Katie has been road-testing and reckons would make the perfect gift.
I have long been a fan of the REN skincare line and the night cream especially is a constant in my regime.
I love how the buttery-soft cream glides on but doesn’t feel too heavy. Plus, it smells divine without being overpowering.
So, when I got sent the Radiance Brightening Duo to try out, I was expecting great things.
As well as being a perfect treat for yourself, this handy little pack would be the perfect gift for your loved ones and I love that along with the Radiance Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic and the Brightening Dark Circle Eye Cream the kit includes two cotton rounds.
These are now living in my shower alongside my cleanser, and I love that they’re a soft and sustainable alternative to throwaway cotton pads.
I love including a toner in my skincare routine and this tonic in particular felt like a gentle indulgence, leaving my skin refreshed and ready for my moisturiser.
It feels very soothing and gentle and overall it made my skincare routine feel like a luxurious ritual of self-care.
I say it all the time but I’m a woman who’s possibly a bit too familiar with a black eyeliner. Great for daytime, not so good when it comes to removing, and I’m well aware of the effects on my delicate under eye skin.
Add to that staring at a screen all day and I can feel the toll it’s taking.
So the Radiance Brightening Dark Circle Eye Cream is something of a godsend. The cream feels like something of a balm or tonic, cooling irritation and visibly de-puffing and hydrating.
It’s lightweight and only takes one pump from the full-size bottle for both eyes.
As part of the duo though you receive a 5ml trial pot and it lasts for ages.
Building the eye cream into my daily regime has definitely helped reduce my dark circles and just feels like a moisture boost every morning and evening.
