The body lotion comes in absolutely beautiful packaging: a dark brown pump bottle with an orange label featuring a metallic floral design. I love how beautiful the packaging is as it makes my dresser with my beauty items stashed on it, look far more luxurious. The pump dispenses only a small amount of product at a time, which is good and minimises product wastage. Unfortunately, there is no way of sealing the pump once opening, I know many pump bottles have a mechanism where you can turn the pump to lock it for when you want to travel or take it to the gym. Although being a large body lotion it's one you're less likely to travel with, I did find not being able to close it annoying, as I was gifted this whilst away and had to travel with it and inevitably the pump squirted product all over my clothes. However, that is my only gripe with the body lotion. It comes in a generously sized bottle for the price, and this would last anyone a long time. The smell is DIVINE. The mandarin and macadamia scent is delicious, I just want to eat it. It's a very refreshing scent, ideal for summer and the kind that makes you feel awake. The smell is super strong, it reminds me of a Lush product, which I love as I am someone who enjoys my body lotions to have a good scent! I can smell this from across the room when it's merely sitting in its packaging! The lotion is very gentle and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. Sometimes if you use too much it tends to ball up/pill on the skin, so definitely a little amount goes a long way. It absorbs nice and quickly and hydrates well. Another bonus is essano make a shower gel in the same fragrance which I own, so you can match the scents of your skincare. I think this is a really nice body lotion at a great price and I'd happily use this again.

Tips: Avoid traveling with this product as there is no way to lock the pump once opened.
I love this brand, I use both face moisturisers and the cleanser but I don't use the body loton as much as I would like. I own it and it makes my skin immediately feel hydrated and smooth but the rose scent is far to strong for me and unfortunately I get a headache if I put even the smallest amount on. I hope they bring out an unscented one or at least tone it down on the rose.
This is quite good as a body lotion but not as moisturising as the body oil. I have been using this as well as the oil for when I can't deal with the dribble problem with the oil :) It works well and smells great- a bit like chocolate to me.The pump dispenser is excellent and easy to use.It is Vegan and organic and New Zealand made = :))
This is one of my favourite body lotions! I absolutely love the smell and it is so hydrating and my skin feel amazing every time I use it. It lasts for ages as you don’t need a lot. It reminds me of being in our favourite place, Rarotonga. It is very well priced and I would highly recommend trying it. I’ve had so many compliments on smelling lovely and it’s often when I’m wearing this!
This moisturiser is good but not for dry skin I reckon. My skin is pretty dry and it felt tight on my face after I use it. Usually, i prefer moisturisers that don't feel this way on the skin. Comparing this to other moisturisers I feel that other ones last longer and hydrate the skin longer and better than this one. It was given to me as a gift so I have used it sometimes but wouldn't purchase again. If you have oily skin maybe this would be a good one because it's not too hydrating. Smells nice and cute packaging tho
I prefer an intensivery hydration cream Thai cream has a lovely scent & even better pacakging but it wasn't hydrating enough to pemirate my alight or skin. I'd repurchase aging if it was on spevial & I had no moisturizer. I picked this up from the supermarket & thought for the price & the volume it'd be a win win .I'd really wanted to love this product. It comes in a dark brown almost organic looking bottle that's plastic with a good pump the size is also appealing giving it a good lifespan I anyone's regime. The product itself has the scent any person would love the cream is thin so thin it doesn't do much for my dry skin. It's absorbant but once it's settled into my skin Im left still dry & ashy on my joints hopefully I'm the only one that's experienced this result. Sotry for the review but this isn't a winner for me.
I am becoming a huge fan of Essano's products! This body lotion has a beautiful floral scent, with an undertone of something I cant quite put my finger on-almost vanilla or woodsy? Maybe a teeny hint of musk, but only in a very subtle way. If you don't enjoy strong or floral scents this may be too much for you, and I probably wouldn't wear this if I was going out as I would worry that it would clash with my perfume. After a shower however, just before bed, this is heavenly. It glides on easily and sinks into my skin leaving it feeling very nourished. I wouldn't have called my skin particularly dry before using these products, but something about this range leaves my skin feeling so fresh and plump that I'm beginning to realise my skin was thirstier than I thought. This leaves my skin feeling so healthy! I don't go through body lotions very quickly, but when I run out I will be sure to repurchase.
Tips: I wouldn't recommend this body lotion if you are not a fan of strong or floral scents
I brought the full size lotion after trying the small sample pack from countdown and i absolutely love the smell, i prefer the smell of the body lotion rather than the facial and night creme moisturizer. The texture is not too runny or too thick and absorbs smoothly and quickly into my skin. i will purchase again and again until something better comes along. I often use it as a foot creme as well just to soften my feet overnight, all i do after i apply is put on a pair of socks.
Another favourite product for this year. I received this in the Thanks For... box from Best Beauty Box Ever. The packaging is classicly rose pink and matches the rest of the product line. What stands out to me apart from the colour is that it is NZ made and best of all Cruelty Free!
This lotion is fast absorbing, not greasy and has a lovely sent that is not overpowering. My number one body lotion I will be repurchasing.
A 20ml pink and black sample tube was in the Essano Rosehip Treat Your Skin Pack that I bought, so I can't comment on the full sized bottle, which I think has a pump dispenser.
The white lotion has a subtle scent that is hard to describe. To me, it smells woody, earthy and a little bit sweet, yet others have described the lotion as being more powdery, floral, marshmallow, vanilla or orange! I guess the smell varies from person to person.
The consistency of the lotion is quite thin and it spreads really easily, it's absorbed fairly quickly but allows enough time for a little bit of a massage and there's no greasiness but is a slightly tacky feel on my skin after the lotion has been massaged in.
It hydrates and nourishes surprisingly well for a body lotion and leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and supple.
Essano Rosehip Intensive Hydrating Body Lotion is made in New Zealand, is cruelty free, does not contain parabens, sulphates, phthalates or silicones and is made with certified organic ingredients.
Tips: As it's non-greasy, it can double up as a hand lotion.
