essano Hydrating Rosehip Micellar Water

This product is so good, it is scent free with clean fresh packaging, it removes makeup with no issues. Definitely my preference for Micellar Waters as its not tested on animals

This is my new favourite micellar water! The bottle is very large, clear with labelling that I find appealing and a black flip top lid. I do find it to have a slight scent but I can't put my finger on what it is, nor is it enough to cause me any kind of bother. The product itself is clear with a water-like appearance that seems to foam up a lot when shaken. I haven't experienced any tightening of skin, dryness or irritation of any sort and it typically leaves my skin feeling moisturised which is a big plus for me! I can't even put into words how much I appreciate this along with other Essano products not being tested on animals, I definitely am keen to try more products from this company.

I love this stuff! I won a bottle in a giveaway that Essano was doing. I haven't tried any other Micellar waters so I can't really compare this to others.

My makeup comes of so easily with this, it makes my skin feel very fresh & clean - I would feel comfortable with just using this at night. This stuff is great after a night out as it doesn't take to much effort, you can even lay in bed while doing it ;)

I picked up the Essano Micellar Water on a whim in the supermarket one night after the current micellar water I had been using had run out. With the variety of micellar waters available now I have been trying out the various brands to see if there was any I prefer.

I have previously tried several Essano skincare products and absolutely loved them, so had high hopes for this. It was packaged in a simplistic clear 400ml bottle which provided a lot of product, some of the other brands don't and this is a tick for me as I tend to wear a full face of makeup at work each day. My only gripe is that the bottle states 200 uses... that's two mls a use... who are they kidding?!

The formula itself had the standard micellar-water features with it's watery consistency. I applied it using a cotton pad which drunk it right up as expected. I then used a few of these to wipe away my makeup, but bearing in mind I do wear full-coverage foundation and Benefit's They're Real mascara which isn't exactly a 'one swipe to remove' product so others may use less. Essano's Micellar Water did remove my makeup easily BUT... ... it stung my skin like crazy! When removing my eye makeup, I had to wipe a makeup wipe over my eye after using the micellar water on it because it stung the sensitive skin around my eye. I don't have overly sensitive skin so I was extremely suprised that a product from a brand like Essano would react like that.

Clearly I won't be using this again (although I did try the bottle on a few occasions just to be sure it was still happening - silly me!). I'd recommend it to a friend to try for themselves because the product itself performed well, but I'd be sure to pre-warn them of my experience!
