REN Perfect Canvas Smooth, Prep & Plump Essence 100ml –Hydrating Essence with Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide, Smooths Skin, Boosts Absorption of Skincare, Clinically Proven to Strengthen Skin Barrier

Love REN products but they’re now not selling. Glad to find this on Amazon. It’s so lovely on the skin.

Excellent product. Step one after cleansing.

Doesn’t say that REN rebranded so received a blue bottle not looking like the original picture. After research it seems REN attempted a rebrand before going bust. This is the last of the brand that’s ever available. Worth buying as it originally sold for £43 and was worth it for that money. This serum is amazing. If anyone reproduces this please let me know….somehow. It really does plump your skin and hydrates. No serum I’ve used comes close to this. So so good.

Lovely product.

Bought this after it received rave reviews from Sali Hughes. I’ve been using it for over 6 months but honestly have yet to see the benefits. I therefore think it’s expensive for what it is. I use as part of a Korean skincare routine. I personally find it a bit on the sticky side. I usually like REN products. N.b the bottle is incredibly similar to the toner version which is much cheaper. Don’t get mixed up!

Really love how REN are all natural ingredients makes my skin feel amazing and perfect before wearing make up

REN Clean Skincare Smooth Prep Hydrating Serum is my go-to before applying other skincare products. Its hydrating formula leaves my skin feeling nourished and ready for the day ahead. I apply it in the morning, and it instantly boosts moisture levels without any greasy residue. The serum absorbs quickly, creating a smooth base that enhances the effectiveness of subsequent skincare steps. I've noticed my skin appears plumper and more radiant since incorporating it into my routine. For anyone seeking a lightweight, hydrating serum to prep their skin beautifully, REN Smooth Prep is definitely worth trying.

I have been searching for an environmental protectant to use under my moisturizer, and this one is perfect. It was recommended by Katie Jane Holmes on YouTube. It is light, goes on smoothly, and dries quickly. Additionally, it works well with many different types of moisturizers, foundation, and concealers. A must have for anyone who is skin conscious.

My experience with Ren Perfect Canvas Smooth is that it does indeed plump skin and minimize fine lines. The formula is similar to a thin serum and it absorbs into skin quickly. It does have a light coconut scent but it is pretty subtle and doesn't linger long. I don't find it offensive at all, but I also happen to like coconut. The only thing I don't really like about the product is the way the bottle dispenses the product, I think a pump would be easier to use. The photos show the instant results on my hand. I won't say I notice lasting improvement- to me the effect seems to be temporary. But it does help minimize fine lines in mature skin that makeup has a way of making look worse. I probably won't use it daily because it's an added step, but it is nice to have in the arsenal for those days I want to make the extra effort.

Glass skin in a bottle. Best thing ever for makeup prep (coming from a pro MUA). I have one for myself and one for my kit. Never get rid of this!

This arrives really nicely boxed. Now, remove this glass (wow!) container from the box and recycle that box. First, the glass bottle is super classy! Loving that! Then, remove the cap and pull away the sturdy, silver seal. That seal ensures a clean delivery and such a fresh product! It's a small gesture that means so much! And, the light coconut fragrance is so nice! I am totally loving that! And, when you put this on a cotton round, you will see that it is fairly viscous. Now, gently wipe the cotton round over your face. It will feel so refreshing and so nourishing. If I applied this with my eyes closed, I would know exactly the areas I missed because my skin just feels so different after I use this. This is amazing as an essence! Use it right before your serum and moisturizer. Amazing!

It’s a glycerin based lotion, great for dry skin, not just face and neck but knees, elbows and heels. Having a glycerin based lotion is great for moisturizing the skin. A little goes a long way. It virtually has no scent to it which is great. The only thing that I wasn’t a fan of was the glass bottle is heavy and there is no pump.
