Fresh!

I saw this at my local supermarket and thought I would give it a go! It was pretty cheap from memory and the packaging is very chic. Once i had finally figured out how to open it (for some reason my pump was a bit faulty) i applied at the end of the day by pumping a small amount onto my hand and frothing it up in my hands and then onto my face. I removed it with a warm, damp facecloth. It smells really good and not too strong. It removed my makeup but it didn't leave my skin feeling as fresh or revitalised as I had hoped. After a month of using it seems to have improved my skin acne wise but my pores are rough and dry. i think it might be a bit drying for my skin. Good for the price but most likely will not repurchase.

Lovely Cleanser

I got this, like many of you, in the travel size pack about 2 months ago. Overall I really love it. My skin is slightly oily and this has been good for that, I have had far less breakouts since using the range. I usually remove make up with a wipe first, then wash my face with this, followed by the night cream and so far so good! Will be buying it in the full size :)

There are better options

I bought this cleanser because I wanted something gentle that was easy to use. I personally didn't like the fragarence of it, I found it didn't have the nice natural scents I gravitate towards, it smelt very artificial. It wasn't very foamy but it did feel gentle and didn't irritate my skin. I have liked most other essano products I've tried but I gave this away because it just didn't leave my face feeling nourished after being cleansed.

Squeaky clean!

This is the second Essano cleanser that I have tried and to be honest this product did a great job at removing makeup, I did have to go in twice hem wearing heavy eye makeup but otherwise my face came out super clean. It doesn’t feel tingly or otherwise weird like some foaming cleansers do, it doesn’t actually foam a whole heap either. That didn’t really bother me though. I did notice that when it went into my eyes (as makeup removers often do) it did sting a little and made my eyes feel super dried out for a bit afterwards. So be super careful or you may end up reaching for the eye drops as I did! It smells very natural, not altogether pleasant though, I would use it again as it does cleanse well and leaves skin clean if not slightly dry.

Tips: Follow up with your favourite face oil/cream to rehydrate after using.

Unexpectedly Fantastic

This is another product that I picked up at the supermarket in the Essano Treat You Skin Pack Rosehip. It was only $17.50 on special which was a crazy good price. I was actually after a new night cream but love trying new things anyway. I didn't actually need a new cleanser at all, I already have three in my shower! I really like this wee pack though and was pleased to be able to try some of the goodies from Essano in these deluxe sample sizes so that I knew whether my skin agreed with it before jumping into the full sized products (although they are very reasonable). Just for your information my skin is dry, but also sometimes sensitive with a few blemishes.

The first product I tried was the Gentle Foaming Facial Cleanser. I usually stay away from foaming things as they can strip my skin of moisture but I love trying out new things. Also this says that it will replenish your skin's natural moisture barrier. The cleanser looks like a thicker clear gel when you take it out of the tube, it didn't look as I expect foaming cleansers to look. I did as directed and wet my hands and foamed this up in my hands before massaging into my skin. The scent of this isn't offensive, just smells like natural skincare to me. It doesn't foam that much which to me is a plus. After washing off with warm water I was pleasantly surprised to find my makeup had all come off, including my mascara. My skin did feel a bit dry but nothing compared to other foaming cleansers that I have used. With one in the past my skin actually felt sore it was so dry. What I really like is that my skin still felt squeaky clean.

I did really like this product and the full size comes with a pump which I like. I have quite a few cleansers on the go at the moment but this will be on the repurchase list for sure.

Gentle Cleanser

I bought this a couple months ago, enjoyed using it and it worked well, i wasn't a fan of the smell though, something i couldn't get use too. The actual formulation is extremely gentle, and felt more like a creamy cleanser vs foam which was nice because i have sensitive skin.

For the price of this product its great value extremely comparable to a high end product.

Miracle Worker!

I can't say enough good things about this product! I have very oily skin that is prone to breakouts and was desperate to find something natural that I could use in the mornings. I have been using this for a couple of months now, and the majority of breakouts that I used to get have reduced! I now only get very minor spots. It's a lovely, soft cleanser to use and leaves my skin feeling refreshed. It smells incredible as well! You only need to use a little bit of the cleaner for it to really foam up. A little bit really does go a long way, so it is also such great value for money. This is my first Essano product that I've used and I love it!

Essano gentle foaming cleanser

I have very dehydrated skin at the moment and I bought this product in hope that it would hydrate my skin and provide my skin with extra moisture and nourishment . I have trialled this cleanser for about a month and it has done nothing for my skin , after cleansing my skin feels tight and stripped of any moisture it had, my skin also broke out a lot whilst using this product which was really strange. I tried to give this cleanser time to see if it would do what it says but I've ended up pushing it to the back of my cupboard and never using it .

Tips: Try not to get it in your eyes as it really stings !

gentle cleansing

I was reading into rose hip oils and how great it is for your skin. I have combination skin with a couple pimple prone areas around my t-zone. I found my skin to be more balanced and to have improved incredibly by using this cleanser.

I found this cleanser to be gentle and quite hydrating. Did not dry out the skin like other cleansers do. The great this is natural as it does not contain any sulfurs or parabens. Great and gentle on the skin, yet I find removes my makeup well.

The gel formula means it wont foam up too much, so dont expect it to be all bubbly on your face. The only downside is that as it comes in a pump bottle and the formula is quite thick, you cant get most of the product left in the bottom of the bottle. I wish it came in a squeeze tube.

Amazing!!

I love this product. I won a gift pack with this in it and wowzers I am amazed.

One pump (from the bottle I have anyway) gives me about a pea sized amount, maybe less, so I use two pumps. I find it lathers better on a face brush thingy rather than in my hands. However, without the brush, the formula is so silky!! It glides onto the face smoothly and it makes my face feel so amazing while its on and when it's washed off.

The smell is really interesting. I've smelt anything quite like it, and now I'm glad I have because I love the smell of it!! Everything about this product blows me away, and I'm so glad that it's soap free because it makes my face feel so much more moisturized.
