REN Skincare Clearcalm Clarifying Clay Cleanser

I adore Ren skincare as a brand and I am really enjoying watching their journey to becoming zero waste by 2021 and as they do so, products are being repackaged and reintroduced. Today sees the turn of the ClearCalm Clarifying Clay Cleanser which I have been using for the past few weeks now and I absolutely love it, as with the rest of the range.

Described as being the spot-fighting, purifying clay cleanser, suitable for every skin type, this cleanser which has been repackaged and is now in what is called post-consumer recycled packaging.

The cleanser itself has been formulated to be non-drying as it fights blemishes without leaving redness or being harsh on the skin, so it is therefore ideal for those with sensitive skin. As always with Ren, there is a host of amazing ingredients:

• Kaolin Clay - This forms the base of the cleanser.  Its job is to draw out impurities as well as excess oil,
• Willow Bark Extract - This helps to minimise pore appearance whilst at the same time removing dirt build up and other pollutions which cause blemishes on the skin
• Mayblossom Extract - This is used because it helps to keep the skin clear 

On the skin, being non-foaming, what I absolutely adore about this cleanser is how it feels on my skin when I am using it and afterwards being silky soft and smooth.

Maskne is an issue that is popping up more and more as an issue for many with having to wear facemasks and moving form hot and cold temperatures, as well as constantly breathing on your own skin, this cleanser, due to its ingredients would work as a preventative solution to reducing breakouts and luckily, whilst I haven't suffered from Maskne, I would guess it is down to using products such as this.

This REN Skincare Clearcalm Clarifying Clay Cleanser, is on sale now for £24 via REN* and other stockists such as Lookfantastic*.

Cosmetic Dentistry in Turkey: What You Need To Know

Your perception of how you look can make or break your self esteem. Teeth contribute to your facial appearance, and they can make you have a great smile or one that you feel like you need to hide when you meet people. Discoloured, stained, broken, misaligned, and missing teeth need not be your worry as cosmetic dentists can rectify them.

Here are procedures that Cosmetic dentistry in Turkey can perform to make your smile a bright one.

1) Veneers

Dental veneers can help remedy crooked, stained, or broken teeth as they are made to suit each patient’s needs. They can also whiten your teeth and protect them from thin or damaged enamel. They look like your natural teeth, and even after their placement, one can hardly tell they are not part of you.

A cosmetic surgeon from UK Smiles uses veneers to cover the front of your teeth. There are different types of veneers, such as laminate, zirconium, and EMAX, which you can opt to have to improve your smile. They get attached to the teeth with the use of a dental adhesive to keep them in place.

2) Teeth Whitening

Teeth get stained from drinks, food, medicine, and smoking. While using toothpaste can help clean your teeth, the original colour can dull over time, and you may need to brighten it up. Whitening teeth is a less expensive procedure as you can do it at home if you have the right products.

You can do it at a dental clinic to avoid damaging your teeth as your dentist can choose the right products to clean them. Your teeth may have a build-up of tartar, plaque, and other dirt, which needs to clear off before the whitening or bleaching process takes place.

3) Inlays And Onlays

Indirect fillings or inlays and outlays are appropriate to use if your teeth have mild decay or there is no space for a complete fill in the tooth. The inlays get placed on the surface of the tooth while onlays cover the entire surface. These indirect fillings help avoid further tooth decay, strengthen teeth, and restore the shape.

4) Dental Bonding

Dental bonding helps remedy chipped, cracked, misshapen, or decayed teeth. The bonding is a plastic material applied to the affected tooth, which is later hardened with laser or ultraviolet light. The dentist can then shape, polish, or trim it to perfection.

Bonding does not take time as it takes 30 minutes to an hour to be complete. Instead of using silver or amalgam fillings, you can have dental bonding as an alternative.

5) Crown

A decayed, cracked, misshapen, or discoloured tooth can have a dental crown as a suitable procedure. A crown can strengthen weak teeth, cover discoloration, and keep cracked ones in place. Metal, ceramic, or resin are the primary materials that make dental crowns.

6) Implants

Tooth loss can make eating a problem and cause your appearance to age. Dental implants can help remedy it as they act as replacements for the lost teeth. The implants resemble your natural teeth and permanently stay in place. You, however, need to practice good dental hygiene to avoid plaque building on the implants.
