What do I think?
After feeling a little disappointed with the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo (review here) I didn't know how my skin was going to react to the much loved REN Glycolactic mask.
The mask has a great mix of ingredients which include extracts of passion fruit, grape, pineapple and lemon. This means that it has a really strong scent and is super fruity- I still can't work out if I like it or not but it's a nice change for a face mask. The best way to describe the texture is as an orange gloop (so scientific!)- you apply a generous layer, leave for 10 minutes and then dampen the cloth that it comes with and use that to remove the mask. I have heard that most people experience a tingling when they use the mask but strangely I didn't have that and my skin felt fine.
In terms of results from this mask I have to join the 'best mask I've ever tried' crew as it really is amazing! I have tried lots of different masks but this is the only one that I've tried which noticeably brightens and clears my skin- I was quite fascinated by this! My skin just looked so much better and even seemed to have helped the red acne marks that I have. I am having to hold back from using this more than once a week (as is recommended).
I really am excited about this mask and am interested to see how it improves my skin over time and after using it regularly. This is definitely going to be a regular in my skincare regime!
Also important to note is that it's suitable for all skin types except for those prone to sensitivity.
Would I re-purchase?
Most definitely!

I'd love to try this, but £30 for a mask is a little steep! Shame. xx
I havent tried this! I have used the La Roche Posay skin care line, not the one you reviewed in particular, but the set for hydration for sensitive skin and i actually really liked it. I have crazy sensitive skin though so maybe it was just cause it didnt give me hives hahahaha!
