essano Hydrating Rosehip Gel Foaming Cleanser

I have never used a cleanser that removed mascara as easily as this product! I literally only need to use the smallest dot of cleanser and it does such a good job.

This cute little pink and brown bottle certainly caught my eyes while i was browsing for my next-to-try facial cleanser. The size looked small.. which didn’t look cheap for the price it had.. but actually.. a little does go a long way...

It’s a thick, clear gel-based cleanser which lathers up gently on the face. You can smell the scent of rosehip as soon as you put it on... which was quite calm and refreshing for the mornings.

My face didn’t dry out completely and still felt soft after using it.. but i think it was too strong for my hands.. as my hands felt it was stripped clean after using it.. and it did look a bit dry afterwards... which is one thing that tends to stop me from repurchasing products. ‭ It was a nice strong pump, but took me a while to adjust to as i’m not use to using thick gel cleansers... But the pump bottle is pretty cute to have in your bathroom.. so it would make a nice cute gift.

I wonder if this facewash will work better on those with more oily skin? As it didn’t really help when you had dry patches on the face, especially on the nose.

Having finally finished up my goodness cleanser I brought this to use as I definitely felt like a change. Really needed to go from a cream cleanser to a foaming cleanser.. with the sunscreen and makeup I use I need something to help lift it off my face.

This is nice and light and a little goes a long way. It comes in a handy pump bottle - I also got a mini travel tube size free which is handy. It's cute packaging with the rose pink label and the bottle itself blends in quite nicely with a few other bottles I have around the place.

In terms of effectiveness it's maybe too effective. It lathers up nicely and has a light pleasant scent but... it was quite drying on my skin. I definitely had to use a moisturiser and serum straight away after using to get rid of the tight feeling I was feeling. I did feel like it washed the day away - I felt clean and that it made a great attempt at removing makeup also.

I feel like it's good but not great - for the price I paid it's not the worst. I will definitely use it up no matter what as it's not terrible.. but will just have to put the moisture back on to fight that tight feeling.

I was immediately attracted to the packaging and lure of the name - 'rosehip' and pink! Thinking this would be an intensively nourishing gel cleanser in a handy pump bottle, however, I used for a short while and then gave up. My skin tended to be too stripped of oils after rinsing and I didn't get the impression it was doing its job properly. Very affordable but perhaps not right for my slightly ageing skin.

I love the compact size of this and the pump is awesome. If a product is not user friendly I simply lose interest.

Smell is awesome and it works great. Lightweight formula with zero-low irritation to my skin

I thought I would love this cleanser, but it's actually one of the few products I've considered returning. It's so disappointing as I like a bunch of their other products.

First of all - the smell is the weirdest thing I've ever smelt. It smells chemically, almost like ammonia, and if it mixed with soap or shampoo while I was rinsing off, the smell (?) burned my eyes.

I found the cleanser was quite drying on my skin, and my skin felt tight after use. The pump bottle was okay, but mine at least didn't lock, which meant it's not great for travel.

Otherwise, it felt like a pretty deep clean. I think this might be a better product for people with quite oily skin.

This cleanser was just okay. I found it really dried my skin out and I tend to have quite normal skin. I didn't really see any changes in my skin so I wasn't wowed. I much prefer the Clinique cleansers

I bought this product thinking it be great but my skin had other ideas , it smells divine and easy to use. Unfortunately my skin did not like it and it seemed to have reacted with a few red patches . I use rosehip oil so I was surprised. It has worked for many others but me. My skin is sensitive, dry and oily forehead. Still love the rosehip range such as the lotions .
