At last – a fabulously nourishing lip balm that doesn’t taste of mint!! My lifelong search for an affordable balm sans methol has finally been accomplished. In April, Ren launches Biomimetic Perfect Lip Honey, and while their Senior Vice President of Naming Products is still in his/her ‘confused? you will be…’ phase, the balm is nothing short of genius. Reassuringly gloopy, with a discrete, low sheen, its packed with peptides and omegas that leave lips softer and smoother. And, it tastes of grapefruit. Mwah!
Lovely! I think the Ren products are fantastic, I’m a real fan. What other products from the range do you recommend?
REN Rosa Maya Eau de Parfum, £40 (www.renskincare.com) is delicious – especially for a summer wedding or party; it’s really rosy without being old fashioned and incredibly uplifting – a real ‘feel good’ fragrance. Using natural products, it’s got a woody bottom (ooh, matron!) that saves it from being too sugary. BBB
