I first noticed that when applied it tingles a bit, especially if you have a spot that’s healing then it will burn slightly. It’s said that this product gently exfoliates and brightens skin but I didn’t notice any difference. Instead it leaves a sticky residue on your skin which I didn’t like. I do however believe after prolonged use you might see an improvement in your skin tone

I am in my mid 30's with combination, olive tone skin and brown eyes. My hair is black, processed with fine texture.
I use this product after cleansing on the congested areas of my face especially around my chin and nose. A little goes a long way and it dries really quickly. It has a subtle fragrance which I don’t mind. My skin feels much more smooth and clear. Just make sure to use sun protection with this as it can cause the sun to irritate.

When reading about this product, it seemed perfect for congestion and my skin has been very congested over the last few months with the lack of not wanting to do much because of profound situation we have all been in, I searched high and low but unfortunately this ended up a big fail thankfully I only purchased the £8 trail size. First use my skin went completely red it felt like it was burning and lasted around 12 hours so sensitive, dehydrated skin i would not recommend. It contains lots of irritating ingredients such a citrus.

I only bought this product yesterday and have used for two evenings as instructed. I apply it following cleansing and before serums. I can already say that my skin feels refreshed and glowing after use. It clears the dead cells and the other products go on well after using it. The scent is so gorgeous - I feel like I’m having a pampering facial each time I use it! Worth the money and will last a while.

I was a pixie glow tonic convert for years.. until this product which has completely revolutionised my skin care routine. The FIRST time i used it my skin came out a bit red and blotchy due to the acid concentration but after 20 minutes it calmed down and my skin looked so so fresh and glowy afterwards. Due to it being quite a concentrated acid i started by using this 3 times a week. Now i have built up to daily (morning and evening) and it really has changed my skin for the better. I occasionally get quite bad breakouts across my cheeks but since using this the breakouts have been minimal and i can't quite believe it. I would recommend this to anyone looking to start their relationship with acid products. I mean most REN products are great but this is their standout for me

I love this product. I am fussy about my face products so was keen to find out how well this would do. It really does do what it says in the label. I noticed after using it for a week twice a day that my skin was showing good results. On days where I may do an exfoliating mask I found using this afterwards that it was drying and my skin is sensitive so stopped using it until the next day. It smells good, you can see that it does exfoliate and get rid of dead skin cells. this is worth it.

✨I got this in my Glamour Beauty Festival goodie bag - and what a find it is! After a couple of uses, my skin looked noticeably glowing and healthy. I especially love the addition of Azelaic acid (great for acne prone and very oily skin) combined with the Glycolic acid, which leaves the skin looking radiant and beautiful and free of blemishes and breakouts. It smells very fresh and citrusy and not chemically like some other AHA Toners do. The price tag of £25 does seem a bit steep, but a little bit really goes a long way and I can see the bottle lasting a while.Will definitely be my new go to!
