Rosehip Rocks!

First of all, I must say this is the first rosehip oil I ever tried, and really it was only because I spotted it at the supermarket, as I'm big on convenience. Though I don't have experience with other brands to compare to, I've found my miracle in a bottle and have been dying to rave about it! Finally a facial oil that is not too greasy on my oily skin, and its done absolute wonders for my complexion. My red patchy skintone has evened out, and its all I've needed to use on my face for acne - its almost cleared right up within 1 month of first using this. I started to get cystic spots around 3 years ago and they have stopped - completely! And my chin has been horrendous with blackheads & whiteheads for so long I can't remember, but its been clearing up so well with this rosehip oil.

My skin is softer, smoothed out with more glow, and I can more confidently go without any foundation if I feel like it. Its been wonderful for smoothing eye wrinkles too.

I've been using it on the backs of my hands too,as they have always appeared like wrinkly old lady hands! They are finally starting to look my actual age- 30's rather then 80's lol.

Oh - and it comes with a little dropper in the lid! So much easier to dispense it without wasting & pouring out too much, as I often do with other bottles. It has a slight woody?? scent to my nose, not in your face or gross, just subtle. I hardly even notice it anymore.

Overall I have to say this is my Holy grail of beauty!

Tips: use 3 drops into your palm, warm it up and massage onto your face - dab a wee bit extra onto problem areas. I only use this at night just to avoid extra shine during the day, but for dry skin this may not be an issue, its a really light non-greasy oil :)

I bought the tester pack but wasn't sure what to do with the pure oil. Will try your tips and see how my skin shapes up after a couple of weeks! Thanks for the tips!

essano rosehip oil

I have received a sample size of this when this product was just released. I have normal/oily skin and I found that this oil really dried up my face ans it just felt really awful for about a week. For me I found this as a very greasy formula.

Gorgeous stuff!!!

Iv recently purchased the essano travel set with the rosehip cleanser, oil, facial moisturiser, body moisturiser and night cream. Im loving the whole set. I mainly use the oil at night so it can really sink into my skin. Iv also started adding a few drops to my night cream so Im getting a double dose. The benefits Iv noticed are a more even skin tone and texture, dark areas/scars now appear to be getting lighter and faster healing time for my spots and pimples. Now, you might think 'but I have oily or acne prone skin, wont putting oil on my face make it worse?' The answer is no! This is because your replacing moisture, that is stripped when cleansing etc, so your skin doesn't over-produce its own sebum/oil that causes oil, shine and pore blockages. This range is amazing and affordable and is a definitely a 'must have' your beauty regime.

Great for scars

I have been using this Rosehip oil on some recent scars from surgery for about a month now. I have been massaging some into them usually twice a day. Already my scars are noticeably less red and are healing well. I haven't found this oil to be too greasy and it soaks right into my skin. The scent of this oil is quite nice. I started using this on my face just over a week ago after reading that others had. I am so impressed with how much the redness in my cheeks has decreased already. I have always had very red rosy cheeks no matter what and they can be hard to cover with makeup at times. I am doing a double take every time I look in the mirror now because I can't believe the non beetroot looking face is mine. I usually apply the oil at night after cleansing and before using the night cream but even if I put it on in the morning the oil does not at all make my skin oily throughout the day. To say I am suitably impressed by this product is an understatement!

Tips: The dropper in the top of the bottle is very handy. You can get it exactly where you want it to go!

Ho Hum

I received a generous sample of this (along with the moisturiser) a couple of months ago and decided to give it a go... I have VERY dry skin/eczema which means I am always very hesitant to put anything on my face - I react to almost everything (including all natural products). I was pleasantly surprised that my skin seemed to tolerate this okay. As far as smell goes, there wasn't much of one, just a faint oil smell (like cooking oil I suppose). I applied at night mostly to the uneven, wrinkly and dry patches around my eyes and mouth. At the time it left my skin feeling nice and hydrated but it would always go back to looking/feeling dry by morning. I imagine if I had normal skin or skin that is easily irritated this could be a great product but speaking from the dry camp it really didn't do a heck of a lot and I gave it a good 2 week trial run.

Holy grail x inifnity.

Oh man, this stuff is INCREDIBLE.

I got this as part of a kit from the Essano range from Countdown. I was keen to give this range a go because I had read so many good reviews about it on the forum here!

My skin tends to be quite dry and not bright. I have red cheeks and some unneveness around my face, and I don't really get acne.

I like to apply 2 -3 drops of this onto my skin after using the Essano Cleanser (you can see reviews about that here: http://www.beautyreview.co.nz/catalogue/skin-care/face/cleansing/essano-gentle-foaming-cleanser).

This is a thick oil that smells really nice and earthy, with a hint of rose. I love how natural it smells.

I tend to put this all over my face but especially concentrate on my red cheeks, puffy undereyes and in the creases of my nose or anywhere else I get really dry.

Since using this my skin has felt hydrated and it looks the best it has in years. My redness has reduced a little bit (yay!), and I haven't experienced any breakouts.

My skin drinks this in and it feels soft and super supple after applying this. I leave it to sink in for about 20 minutes and then apply the night cream.

This is a must try - seriously. It imagine this is going to be in my skincare regime for a long, long, loooong time!

Tips: If you haven't tried this range before I recommend going to the supermarket and getting their 'starter kit'. It has 4 different products in it that are a fantastic introduction to the range, and it's really affordable.

New Love - The secret to glowing skin!

I recently purchased this after the raving reviews on here and online in general and am not disappointed with it one little bit.

This oil has a lovely natural ever so slight scent which I have come to love and the texture on the skin feels so smooth and luxurious (as oil type products do), yet fine and light. I had worries this would clog my pores and worsen my breakouts, but, the opposite has been the case. I spread this all over my face and down my neck and upper chest and put a little extra on my eye area (particularly my eyelids which get extremely dry) and any other patches prone to dryness.

I usually have very dry skin which is often irritated and dull looking and have found that using this every night after cleansing my face has really improved the texture and radiance of my skin. My skin looks moisturised, healthy and supple after using this for a few weeks and I don't plan on stopping using it as I am really liking the results it is giving me.

I would highly recommend this product to others as it is simply fantastic and I will definitely be repurchasing it for years to come.

Love love love

I'm almost 27 & have started to see a couple of lines forming under my eyes, so I decided to take action. As part of my nightly routine I use a couple of drops around my eyes before bed as an intense treatment & I've seen such an improvement I'm thrilled. Love the stuff!!

Tips: Use every night before bed

Healthy, radiant skin

I got a small trial size of this given to me when I placed an online order with my supermarket- love it when they include freebies, especially beauty products!

I was excited to try this oil after reading the positive reviews on BR.

The bottle has a little dropper, which is perfect for dispensing a small amount on your hand to put on your face.

My skin tends to be very dry in some places, and now that I'm in my early thirties and don't tend to have as much sleep as I used to (my lovely little daughter waking during the night). I have recently developed the pesky fine lines around my eyes and also in between my eyebrows - so I was hoping this product would work!

I was a little concerned the oil would cause me breakouts, as some oil has done this to me. However, with my normal routine of cleansing at night I then applied this sparingly to my fine lines and dry patches. It's very light feeling and sinks in easily- with no greasy feel like other oils.

The smell is very subtle and not overpowering at all. Very natural and slightly floral. After using this I am very happy with the results. My skin feels very hydrated and it seems to even out my skin tone, with no dry patches. My skin looks healthier and has a glow to it after using this, I love it! After a week of using this I am very impressed! My fine lines look a little less noticeable, in time I'm hoping that this oil helps diminish them for good (can only hope!).

I will definitely be purchasing the full size bottle of this soon. Very handy that I can purchase this from countdown, with my weekly shopping.

After trying this oil I'm very tempted to try the moisturiser and the rest of the range. Hopefully they are as good as this oil!

Tips: A little goes a long way!

Essano rosehip oil

After reading reviews on here and on the forum, I decided to give this ago and bought the sample pack. I have combination skin with some dry patches that appear in the colder months, skin reddening on the cheek area and fine lines appearing around my eyes so opted to use the oil on these two areas. I have given this product a good month to trial this and I must admit I have seen an improvement particularly the redness on my cheeks is much better. I did not find the oil to greasy and found my skin quickly absorbed it. There was a subtle fragrance to the oil but certainly nothing unpleasant and nothing you could smell once it was applied to the skin. I then decided to get really brave and apply to my chin area which was not a good move as I have now had a huge breakout which has not happened in a very long time, my mistake should not have applied to the already oily areas of my face! I have to admit this has put me off slightly and therefore have not used it for the last couple of days. I will recommence but will stick to cheek and eye area because I certainly felt it made a difference and my skin looked and felt good and any redness was certainly reduced. As for the other products in the pack I'm loving the body lotion so will buy a full size in the near future and the night cream is also a great product. I loved the fact that I was able to purchase such a handy trial pack from the supermarket for a reasonable price as well and that the oil has certainly lasted a good month.
