Interesting! I enjoyed reading this. I often think of ren as boring for some reason. Unless I am at a nice hotel and the shower stuff is that sea based ones and I get excited but I feel like I'd never actually buy and can't now call to mind what their price point is. The market is oversaturated unfortunately. That said it would be sad to see a sustainable brand go. And some crap celeb one full of plastic succeed.
I don’t believe REN update their products unless it’s limited edition sets/ packaging. I’ve tried the exfoliating toner which I saw Katie Jane Hughes use a lot, but it’s meh and doesn’t beat much cheaper brands. The evercalm range made my face burn, and looking at the ingredients it’s full of fragrance and essential oils which can be irritating to the skin. The brand really feels dated and almost forgotten.
When Ren first appeared nearly 20 years ago, I used to be so impressed when boutique hotels we stayed in had Ren products in their bathrooms. A few years later, when magazines were still popular and gave free gifts, I felt that the profusion of Ren products as magazine free gifts and in the newly available beauty boxes devalued the brand. I still love the Ren Rose Otto range and will always have a jar of their sublime Rose body scrub, but am getting very fed up of having yet another mini bottle of their Glow tonic from a beauty box or advent calendar.
