essano Hydrating Rosehip Hand Crème

I (as with the new Essano exfoliator) waited forever after seeing Essano tease this on Instagram to come out. Once I got my hands on it they haven't been happier! The first thing to love about this product is the really pretty packaging. The scent of the hand cream is amazing and fits in well with the rest of the range. The cream is white and had a nice thick texture. No runny thin cream here! Although the cream is thick and lush it sinks right into my skin nice and quickly and does not leave greasy residue. I can apply it at work and go straight back to typing and my fingers don't slide around the keyboard. My hands look great and supple and I can't love rosehip based products more!

After so much anticipation this finally found its way into my possession. A nice and squeezable tube a attractive rosehip colour with a flip top lid. So in this tube is a white scented cream smells like a buttery strong rose it's a lovely texture like a thick lotion in consistency that doesn't leave a greasy residue, so no need to wipe off any excess and at work that is a bonus. It soaks in pretty quickly and leaves my hands feeling moisturised and soft and that's instantly. Dry skin and cracked fingers "yuck" that's my hands, this cream is so lovely soft and soothing and my hands are feeling not so dry using this hand cream. It's lovely and I paid full price for it as I couldn't wait so just under $15 a bargain. I've been rubbing it in on my feet as well I do have to apply a little more often to get the benefits and I still like a heavy cream at night as my skin is dry. I've tried a lot of hand creams this little tube is up there for me it's great to have it nice and handy ha ha. It's definitely a good buy

I was always a eco store hand cream user but the huge size and price of this hand cream inspired me to buy. Such great value especially when its often on sale at Countdown.

I insist on natural handcreams as I use multiple times a day and hands are often cracked. Not suitable for a chemical filled product.

The cream is a lot more lightweight compared to Ecostore more like a thick lotion. It does pack and moisture punch and not even slightly greasy. Even better it is quick to asorb and dries light weight.

The smell is mild and pleasant, typical fragrance of this brand.

Another great New Zealand made natural based product.

I keep a tube of this in my desk drawer to use at work. I figure that my habit of absentmindedly applying hand cream at my desk when I'm feeling restless can only be a good thing. This is a great cream to have at work because, although it feels quite thick in texture, it absorbs quickly and leaves my hands feeling really soft without being too slick and greasy.

The scent is delicious and very similar to a few other products in the Essano range. It's subtly rosy but there's a hint of something else that I can't pin down. I only wish the scent was a bit more intense so I could enjoy it for longer!

I've used quite a few of the products from this range now and I've been really happy with almost all of them. You get a decent sized tube for the price and I can see this one lasting me for quite a while. I've been using this a few times a day for about a month and I've barely made a dent in it. I would happily buy this again.

Me been me and super fussy about smells of hand creams I actually really like this! The smell is soft and not over powering. The texture is smooth but you do need a generous amount, I found this especially having dry cracked hands, it kept my skin soft but I need to apply every few hours to really keep my hands smooth and soft

I use this as my daily hand cream that I keep in my bag. Handy to use and lovely packaging. Absorbs quite quickly so it doesn't make my skin feel greasy at all. Nourishes and does its job. The perfume-y scent I'm not too fond of as it is really strong when I first apply it and people around can usually smell it too.

I got given this lovely hand cream from my mother in law as she was gifted it but doesn't bother with creams and things so she knows to pass onto me, bonus for me! Especially when it was on my list of things to try too.

Packaging this slender tubed hand cream comes in a dusky rose coloured plastic sleeve that has a black screw on lid which covers the tiny hole penetrated into the tube that allows the cream to come out, being a good size to allow just the perfect dollop onto your hands so that you don't over saturate them with the cream. Fragrance wise it has a lovely fresh floral scent, not too overpowering with the rose scent which is what you would expect but I guess it is the blended smell with the other good oils in there that gives it is light fragrance. Texture wise it is exactly the same as any other hand cream on the market, it is a milky cream that has a silky feel, which absorbs quite quickly into the skin as you rub, warming the lotion into your hands, fingers and cuticles.

I'm still only about half way through this tube and I have had it now for 3 months! applying it 2-3 times a day, ok on some days I forget but for argument sake lets say 5 days a week, give or take. So the value for money here is awesome, and with it being easily accessible it is a win win. My hands are left feeling smooth, and well hydrated, my cuticles too and it even shows on my nails. Included with the rosehip oil which is a repairing oil is jojoba which is a balancing oil so this makes the cream suitable for near enough any skin type with the extra benefit to those who have scarring or other skin damage.

Ive finally reached the age where i need hand cream everyday! The dirty thirties let you know that your skin is on the downwards slope haha!! I have wrinkles and im not okay with it! Having a small child means washing my hands numerous times So hand cream is used on a regular basis! I love anything with rosehip oil and jojoba oil as ingredients as they are so good for your skin so i was very eager to try this. I loved the packaging which is very handbag friendly and the smell of this product is great too. The white cream absorbs into the skin very quickly and leaves it super soft, i love how there are a whole lot less nasty ingredients in this than other hand creams. Ive actually applied it on my arms, feet etc before bed and it works wonders. I cant wait to try the other products!

I love this hand cream and the beautiful dusty rose packaging is an added bonus. I often buy this for gifts and everyone seems to love it as much as I do.

The cream itself is not too heavy but not too light and absorbs nicely without leaving a heavy or sticky feeling. The scent is gorgeous without being overpowering. I usually use this a couple times a day and a tube of it has lasted me about 5 months which is great especially if you find this on sale which it often is at Countdown.

I haven't tried any other Essano products but given how much I like this hand cream I will definitely be giving them a try.
