M&S is having a sale on REN’s cult skincare products from November 7 to 13.
Cold weather plays absolute havoc with many people’s skin, especially those with sensitivity issues or chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. While the latter conditions ought to be treated by a medical professional, soothing over-the-counter skincare can help to combat dryness, tightness and flaking while your skin battles the elements.
A great example is REN Clear Skincare’s Evercalm range of products, and from November 7 through to November 13 you can pick up a huge array of its creams and treatments for 20% off at M&S. Founded over 25 years ago, Evercalm’s flagship Global Protection Day Cream has been such a hit with customers that its formula has remained unchanged as the years roll by.
The Global Protection Day Cream, usually £39 for 50ml, will be cut £31.20 once the offer begins, and its 4.9/5 customer rating at M&S speaks for itself. “Really deeply moisturising. Lovely smell and it really feels like it does my 60s skin a power of good,” said one happy customer. Its antioxidant-rich and anti-inflammatory formula is ideal for creating a protective barrier over your skin, locking in moisture and helping to keep the cold and wet at bay.

It’s not just moisturisers on the menu, either. The Atlantic Kelp and Magnesium Body Wash promises anti-fatigue properties at £24 RRP, or £19.20 once the discount kicks in. This is another product will an incredibly high average rating of 4.9/5. One customer raved: “I love this product, it makes me feel like being at the spa. I have sensitive skin and never had any issues with it.” Other key products include an AHA tonic that will help brighten your skin, and a cleansing gel that should get rid of the day’s grime without stripping.
More generally, the Evercalm range is particularly loved for its weather-defying assistance. “I have been using this protection cream for about a two years and I no longer suffer with dry patches when the weather get colder,” said one happy customer.
“This has been my everyday moisturiser for years now,” said another. “It’s super kind on my very sensitive skin.” Another added: “Redness and dryness has been been vastly reduced by using this cream daily”. And celebrities have even got in on the hype, with former Made In Chelsea star Louise Thompson saying on Instagram: “The Evercalm™ range from REN is my go-to for daily barrier support.”
Of course, no product gets universal praise. Some users of the Global Protection Day Cream find it’s not heavy enough for their needs. “Good texture, feels nice on the skin but I have to use extra moisturiser as it’s too light,” said one review.
Some with sensitive skin have also found it wasn’t quite gentle enough for them: “I have very sensitive skin so I was hopeful. Went on smoothly and didn’t itch so I remained hopeful! Sadly skin has reddened so had to stop using it. Will pass on to a daughter whose skin is more resilient.”
If you’re keen to see other big brand discounts in the run-up to Christmas, you’re sure to find some good stocking fillers in the Debenhams skincare sale. There are plenty of special offers to consider taking advantage of at Kiehl’s, too, which is particularly well-known for its hydrating Ultra Facial Cream (£37).
For 20% savings on some incredibly well-reviewed skincare products, you should absolutely check out the REN Evercalm sale at M&S between the November 7 and 13 – the deal excludes minis and travel sizes, but there’s plenty else to get excited about.
