Vitamin C Super Glow Facial Oil

Lovely citrusy fragrance, the oil has a lovely texture. My skin felt amazing after using it, I'm sure some of the dark spots on my face looked better,and my hands appreciated the extra nourishment as well.

Tips: Don't use it when you are distracted, I upended 1/2 the bottle in my lap :( It doesn't come out of clothes very well (it is an oil)

Love Essano Vitamin C Oil x

I have now been using this face oil for quite a while now, and I love it! The consistency is great so you do not use to much, smells like freshly peeled oranges! Which I think is so yummy, gives you a nice spring feel! It feels amazing on, and can be used in its own, totally recommend to try it out x

Tips: A little goes a long way so do not over do it, your face will be very shiny not glowing x

A very light product

This product is easily absorbed and after a week I started to apply morning and night. It’s very thin, so even though the packaging advises using with your finger tips, I ended up applying straight onto my face with the dropper - small amounts in various places to avoid it running down my cheeks. It has gives a velvety texture once applied and is fantastic as a base for make-up. I didn’t notice an overly strong odour, but you do need a good cleanser to remove daily as over the course of the second week I did notice my pores were starting to get blocked. It definitely helped to even out the dry patches around my nose and cheeks from the constant wearing of masks in the current climate. I would recommend for a dry/normal skin tone.

Tips: Apply small amounts directly to the skin, to avoid the product running through your fingers.

Bang for your buck!

I'm pleasantly surprised by how good this serum is! I've used a few different vitamin c treatments and have seen the Essano offer in the supermarket but always thought maybe it wouldn't be that great as it's such a reasonable price! The glass bottle is pretty standard, a squezzy tip on the applicator to dispense the drops.

Serum is a little thinner than I was expecting and it's easy to get a little bit more products than you need.

The serum smells delicious and soaked into my skin quickly and didn't pill with my night moisturizer, total bonus.

When using at night time my skin felt super soft and plump in the morning and over the last few weeks I've seen the slight discoloration of age spots on the side of my face change colour and be a lot less noticeable.

I did experience a little redness across my cheeks when I got greedy and used the serum morning and night but it quickly went away when I droped it back down.

All in all I totally recommend the Essano serum, for the price it definitely delivers.

Tips: Use on the age spots on your hands as well as the ones on your face!!

Didn't feel any difference

I was given this as a trial and I used this 5 times a week, it smelt quite nice and was quite easily absorbed into the skin, didn't really leave a very greasy feeling. The rubber pump is very soft and thin, so quite difficult to use, you can easily squeeze out too much. After using this for the entire trial period, I don't feel my skin changed in anyway, but also didn't have any breakouts or clogging of skin, so probably not something I see myself investing in.

Glowing and radiant

I have used the essano Vitamin C Super Glow Facial Oil for the past few weeks and after a week or so my 11yr old daughter commented on my skin and how good it looked. It really nourishes and gives your skin a radiant glow. Great it you have dry aging skin.

Tips: Don’t forget to use morning and night for the full benefits

I love this! My skin loves this!!

I’ve used a vitamin C oil before, and loved it (another brand) but didn’t purchase a full sized bottle after I finished my trial sized one - mostly due to cost. So I was pretty excited to trial the Essano Vitamin C Super Glow Facial Oil.

With some nice packaging, clearly identifying it with the brand,in its signature rose pink, the compact, small brown bottle with a rubber and glass dropper fits nicely into my small bathroom cabinet. It will easily find a space in a toiletry bag also. Despite being small, this product goes a long way!

From day one, my skin just lapped up the goodness, within days of just using it in the evenings, I felt my bare face had a glow to it, something new for me. I started using 3-4 drops at night only, after serums or instead of serums - depending on my mood. I’d recently had a sensitivity to a retinol product, so I was wary of using a new product so soon, but I had no reaction to this product.

Once I was sure it wasn’t going to aggravate my skin, I also started applying it in the morning most days. During warmer weather, my skin can become an oils slick before morning tea time, so winter is the perfect time to see how my skin will cope with the oil. I did restrict it to 2 drops in the morning, just in case. I needn’t have worried. It sits well under my usual lightweight moisturiser and I didn’t notice any excess oil during the day, nor when I take my make up off in the evening.

I’ve not looked at the price of this product yet, I’ve still got about 2/3rds of the bottle left - I’m pleased with how long the product is lasting. It’s going to be a keeper in my routine now! I’m pretty sure this brand has some great, affordable price points, so I’m sure I won’t have to sacrifice another product to add this item into my daily regime!

My fave thing about this product is the scent. Smells good enough to eat, BUT DON’T! Just a gentle waft of orange to stimulate your senses, and the scent compliments my other scented body probducts

Tips: Don’t squeeze the dropper too hard, the product comes out quickly. Don’t fill the dropper with too much product, until you get used to the pressure you need to squeeze out precisely 3-4 drops. Anymore will be a waste!

Good, affordable hydration

With fine lines and wrinkles starting to show and dark pigmentation spots from not wearing sunscreen enough when I was younger, I was excited to try out this Vitamin C oil from Essano.

First impressions were good. The oil is dispersed by a dropper which is easy to use. The oil is quite thin, so it took a few goes to get the application right, as to start with I had more oil running between my fingers than on the fingertips for application! The oil absorbs quickly, and leaves skin feeling soft. It leaves a dewy finish, but not greasy. Once absorbed, I was able to apply my daily sunscreen and also a light foundation on top of the oil without any issues.

Initially, I did get some dry spots and a small breakout after starting to use the oil, but this only lasted a few days as my skin adjusted to the new product. Since then, my skin has been well hydrated and healthy looking. The hydration lasts all day, and even in the depths of a southern winter, I haven't had the dry skin I usually experience.

While my skin tone does look better, I'm not entirely sure if there has been too much difference to the darker pigmentation. Some of my lighter sun shoots spots have faded which is great, so it may just take longer for the darker ones.

Overall, this is a great affordable product especially as the brand can be found in supermarkets and chemists. I love that it is New Zealand product and uses natural ingredients without the nasties that can be found in other skincare. Definitely a product I would buy in future.

Tips: Applying sunscreen daily is a given, but especially important when using a Vitamin C product.

Not going to rush out and buy more

The bottle looks like any other facial oil with a dropper as the lid. The lid on first opening was a little fiddly as the seal didn't break properly, but once open this wasn't a problem. It has a very gentle and not over powering scent, but definitely a light smell. I have used more quality droppers on oils and this one felt a little cheep when being used. The oil was easy to rub in and as with most facial oils a little does go a long way. I didn't see any major differences after using this product. I think maybe with more continuous use the results will be easier to see.
