Description
Product description
The active element to this mask is a 100% pure fruit acid complex (lactic, glycolic, tartaric and citric) and papain enzyme (from Papaya). These ingredients create a gentle but potent exfoliating action that targets dull, congested and mature skins. The AHAs resurface the skin, visibly improving firmness and radiance, while at the same time reducing fine lines, post acne scarring, blemishes and blackheads - the outcome is a bright, new complexion. Not suitable for very sensitive skins.
Why it's cult
REN Glycolactic Skin Renewal Peel Mask is a godsend for congested, sun damaged and mature skin. Made with 5-6.5% Gloycolic Acid, it is both gentle and effective at exfoliating away dirt, actively dissolving the bonds that hold dead skin build-up to reveal a healthy glow. This is one of REN's topselling products because once people try it they rarely stray to another mask for cleaning the skin of the weekly flotsam and jetsam.

User reviews of REN Glycolactic Skin Renewal Peel Mask
Honey-like mask
By Bella Bradshaw, Accountant, Thirties, London
This has a very sticky set-honey-like texture so make sure you tie your hair back before putting on your face. My skin is a little sensitive so I am always tentitive with face masks, even the more natural ones which can contain essential oils that bring me up in hives! This did tingle when I put it on and my face was a little red afterwards, BUT my word did this make my skin look lovely. The dullness from smoking was totally gone, replaced with a lovely glow that lasted a few days. This mask might be a problem product for people with really sensitive skin but I love it.
Good mask
By Lana Jason-Willis, PA, Forties, London
This has been a regular in my bathroom for years, it just leaves my skin looking lovely and cleans off the dry, dead bits that leave it looking grey. My skin is really dry and has an olive colour so looks really grey/sallow in winter if I don't look after it. REN Peel Mask goes on and washed off easily and I only have to use a little bit so the tube lasts well.
