essano Body Lotion

If there's one thing I'm a sucker for, its gorgeous smelling body lotions. This one has me sooo sucked in! its sooo divine! To me its sort of a warm floral/woody scent. And its strong. Its also great value for $16 for a 400ml pump bottle, which has so far lasted me 3 months, I still have 1/4 left. I have also been using this on my hands for a little indulgence and find myself walking around smelling my hands lol.

Moisturising properties...... well, to be perfectly honest, Its not super thick, nor is it runny, but it does have a nice smooth consistency. It was great throughout the heat of summer, but now that its cooling I've found I've had to use another thicker lotion to keep some areas on my body from drying out. So unfortunately I had to take a point off for that, which makes me a little sad because I love the smell so much lol.

So if you have super dry skin on your body, especially in cooler months, I wouldn't recommend this as your only product. But gosh it smells good! But I guess overall this is meant as a moisturiser not a perfume.

I bought this product by chance at a supermarket and I am so glad I did! It is such great value for money with the amount of product you get. I've been using it for my hands and they were noticeably softer after a weeks use! And the lotion smells amazing, with the push pump its so easy to touch up the moisture on my hands while at my desk. Would definitely purchase this moisturiser again!

This is probably the most girliest Body Lotion ever! Not did it keep my skin soft and moisturized it also made me feel very feminine and sexy.

Like it says in the name it gives you some intensive hydration! This is sucha good body lotion for super dry skin or if you have dry patches, it will smoothen them out to match the rest of your skin.

I wish I could use it every day but it just too intensive and my skin just gets too much of it that it doesn't soak it up!

When it comes to scares etc, I did not notice much difference, never have with rose-hip but i just adore the scent so much so I really don't mind.

I saw this in count down ages ago, but decided to get a cheaper (and now I see, far inferior!) body lotion, despite really, really wanting to try this! I'm so glad i finally bought it. I had a wee beauty product splurge the other day and this was one of the things I picked up after reading the BR reviews, and I'm not going to use anything else. It's a big 400 ml bottle so for the price, it's actually really generous. The formula is beautiful! it's super softening (my boyfriend touched my legs and made a comment about how silky and smooth my legs were), but not greasy at all, it just sinks in, and it smells absolutely GORGEOUS! I can't quite pick the smell. It's sweet, but has an almost smokey/spicey kind of quality? I LOVE it! I actually just put it on my hands before writing this and I can smell it right now (also, my hands feel beautifully silky). i honestly love this body lotion. I used to rave about the body shop's lotions, but this is much better. It's more nourishing, yet lighter and it sinks in better, it also smells a lot nicer. Less generic, if that makes sense. I'm a fan. Also, no mucking around with squeezy bottles! This is a nice big pump bottle so there's no mess, and it actually looks very cute in it's brown bottle with pink label. I am a convert! So, to wrap: No greasiness, no irritation (it's not pumped full with mineral oils and other gunk! yay!), no sickly or synthetic smelling scent, no stickiness afterwards, nothing nasty! Just smooth, soft, super hydrated, happy skin with a beautiful, soft fragrance.

I have used other Essano products before and really liked them, but this one just didn't quite tick all the boxes for me.

The scent is amazing and the formula has a great consistency. It was easily absorbed and not too greasy.

I wanted to like it a lot more than I did (especially because it smelt so good!), but it just didn't seem to moisturise quite as well as I needed it to. As a disclaimer, I have very dry problematic skin and I think I am just suited to a much heavier product. It did not irritate my sensitive skin though.

I think this would be a lot better suited as a general moisturiser to someone with skin a lot less demanding than mine.

I really like this body lotion. It smells divine with a lovely floral scent and I really look forward to putting it on so I can get the scent on me. The texture is not too runny and not too thick and rubs in nicely to my skin. I have mainly been using it on my hands and they have been noticeably softer and smoother since I started putting this body lotion on them. I am really impressed with this whole range of products and think I can safely say that they have me hooked!

Thanks to the lovely ladies on the BR forum, I HAD to try this range. I purchased this as a part of a kit from Countdown.

This is a really gorgeous moisturiser. It smells lovely (kind of earthy with a subtle rose scent). I have been using this on my chest and neck area (I use coconut oil on my arms and legs), and my skin looks bright and feels supple and super, super soft.

I really feel like I don't need to try any other moisturiser - as my skin absolutely adores this.

This is easy to blend into your skin and it doesn't leave an unpleasant residue after applying. The scent is subtle and I haven't had any irritation due to this.

I will absolutely repurchase this and I have been recommending it to all of my friends.

I purchased this as part of the Essano Rosehip Kit after hearing so many ladies rave about the range on here and reading about the benefits of rosehip oil.

I'm a sucker for pretty packaging and the brown plastic colour scheme with rose coloured label displays beautifully. The lotion is easily dispensed with a pump while the plastic cap is secure enough that you can pop it in your bag for on the go hydration.

I love the scent of this body lotion, a soft rose fragrance I want to roll up in. I would happily walk around smelling like this, it's so beautiful and feminine.

I don't normally moisturise my body every day but with the cooler months I've found that my skin is needing that extra bit of help, especially my legs! The consistency was very standard for a body lotion and I applied it after showering and found it absorbed into the skin really easily without leaving a greasy film.

I had high expectations for this after trying the Essano Rosehip Night Cream which I really liked, especially as this made the large claims of being an intensively hydrating power lotion. Unfortunately I found that this really didn't deliver for me, while my skin did feel slightly moisturised it really wasn't as hydrating.

I'm sure this would be great for others but I won't be repurchasing as I prefer something in winter that really does deliver more hydration to my body.

I got this moisturiser in the sample sized Essano pack, and was excited to try it as I've liked a few of the other products. However this product was a massive let down, purely because it smelt terrible!! Unlike other products in their range the scent is sickly sweet, and incredibly overpowering. After the first use I couldnt fathom using it anywhere but my feet (which I then cover with socks), and washing my hands afterwards, as the smell lingers for ages on them too. In terms of its actual moisturising qualities, its hard for me to comment but it has helped my feet a bit.

If I wasn't so stingy I would have throw this away, and I will probably pass onto someone else rather than use it, as someone else might be able to stand it Overall will definitely not be buying this one again.

This was part of the trial pack I purchased from Countdown. As soon as I used it, I knew I wouldn't be purchasing the full sized version, as the smell was just too off-putting for me. It's a very overpowering fragrance, not unpleasant, I was expecting a lovely rosey scent, this would definitely clash with any perfume worn at the same time. As far as moisturising goes, it sinks well into the skin & does a good job of hydrating the body. The price is very cost-effective too.
