Go-To kit
-10.22.12
This kit combines 3 of my favorite Ren products. While most other blemish control products dry me out, these are perfectly balanced for my skin. Yes, I still breakout but I really notice the 'calming' effects of the Clear Calm line on my skin. The full size face wash is the price of the bundle so this is a deal and the 2 smaller sized lotions are perfect for airline travel. Great products and deal!

Quick Take: travel-friendly, good value, amazing, gentle
I was, of course, skeptical. With fussy, sensitive, oily skin, -and- prone to acne-and- hypersensitive, -and- utterly impossible, i have had, of course, tried just about -every- skincare regimen for my type of skin known to man[ including prescription only stuff, under the care of a dermatologist].
This was, a whim.
A lifechanging one!I live in Arizona, and after using this in the morning, my sebum remains under control even as the rest of me melts.i have had not ONE zit since starting this kit.Nothing.No dryeness, no patching, no irritation, no overdrive of oiliness that happens so frquently when controlling the acne.my skin is the best it has been in about 23 years.Switching over to this brand for good.Am in love.
PS; some users have found the clay scent slightly offputting; I do not mind it at all, it is a -clean- clay scent, if that make sense.Besides, with how well it performs it could -reek-, and I would not give a toss.=)

good bundle

Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly, cleanser leaves face smooth
The cleanser is my fav, really controls my oily pores and leaves my face silky smooth. Haven't had any major breakouts, just the typical hormonal ones. I put a pump of the cleanser onto dry skin and use my Clarisonic to cleanse.
The night and day serums sink in really well, faint herbal scent. Would have to purchase the full sizes to see real results but so far so good.

Pretty effective but no miracle
-09.23.12
Quick Take: good value, strong scent
I think it does 'calm' the skin and reduces breakouts, but there's something very chemically about the day/night serum and all three products have a strong smell. It's not offensive, but people will notice even when you don't use a lot of it. The cleanser is very similar to many expensive clay masks and it does leave your skin very soft. It's really the best part of the bundle.
I'd lay off the sampler serums: they don't really get absorbed. If you'd like to test it yourself, after you apply the day/night serum, and it dries (even after an hour or two), wet a finger and run it over any part of your face where you applied it - it should feel slippery and a little icky. It might, of course, also depend on skin type.

Quick Take: good value
Love that the clay cleanser is full-sized. It's gentle and never leaves my skin greasy or filmy - and neither does the night serum or day fluid. Living in FL where it's muggy out almost daily, I have to remember to ease up on the day fluid to avoid getting shiny by mid-day. In just a few weeks my skin has become noticeably clearer and more even in tone, and my only breakout has been one hormonal whitehead. Definitely going to purchase again!

Quick Take: good value
this is a good (not great) product for the money. the face wash has a slight sulphuric and clay smell which isn't bad, just not pleasant. it didn't do a great job removing makeup, (i usually applied a toner after cleansing to remove any residual makeup) i love the calming day lotion and night serum, but they are so small that they lasted only about a month. overall a good product.

Full size cleanser, trial size others
-09.03.12
The cleanser is full size, the day and night lotions are trial sized. My skin doesn't react to these products, and it tends to react to everything. There's no benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or other irritants commonly in anti- acne products. It hasn't gotten rid of my reactive skin, but it's not making it any worse. The moisturizers are very light, so good for oily skin. No artificial smells. It has an herbal-medicinal smell.

Amazing Kit!
-08.27.12
I love that the cleanser is full-sized. I love that it is a clay based cleanser, but is still quite light, and it is not too messy. My skin has definitely calmed! Be sure to use the day and night solutions. I got lazy for a few days and just washed without treating... my breakout came back a bit. I have horrible skin, so for something to make me calm and smooth... well, it is truly a miracle! I even ventured out with nothing more than tinted moisturizer after using this product for a week! Like all REN products I have tried, it smells so clean and refreshing. It feels like a spa!

Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly, soothing, worth it!
I have breakout prone skin that's very sensitive to most drying acne products. I've been using this cleanser since it came out and I'm still so pleased with the results. My skin is soft and clear 90% of the time now, (as opposed to NEVER), and the redness and peeling is a thing of the past! I'd recommend this product to anyone who has felt that traditional acne products have made their problems worse. Paired with a nutritional supplement such as Murads clear skin vitamins, I'd bet that most people with sensitive, adult acne and redness would have similar results to my own. TRY IT!

WOW! THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS
-07.27.12
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly, perfect for adult acne sufferers
Despite being a total beauty addict for over 15 years, I rarely post reviews but this time I feel compelled. I've suffered with acne since my teens and have spent the last 20 years trying to find the right solution that treats the breakouts I have, prevents future ones and, most importantly, doesn't make my face look like I have a permanent 3rd degree sunburn. Well I've FINALLY found the solution with these products! The creamy clay cleanser leaves my skin feeling fresh and really clean but not stripped and the day fluid keeps my face smooth, matte and comfortable all day. That night serum is amazing. I was surprised that such a soothing, rich-feeling treatment would actually make my skin look so soft and clear the next morning. I've FINALLY found something my face actually likes! Bye Bye tight, red, flaky (and still breaking out) skin...HELLO CLEAR, SMOOTH AND COMFORTABLE!
(ps...the mask is pretty awesome, too. may have to post another review on that)
