essano Collagen Boost Serum

This Essano Collagen Boost serum has a light and silky texture and 2 pumps are enough to cover the face and neck. This serum absorbs quickly into the skin so you don't need to wait to apply moisturiser. It has a mild scent.

I got this serum as part of a Christmas gift pack that Farmers had in stock last year. I wouldn't normally buy this serum in the Essano range as I think it's targeted to an older demographic. It worked really well for me regardless. My skin is usually in very good condition but can have a bit of a breakout reaction when I change between skincare products but this didn't happen when I changed to this serum. I like the glass bottle packaging and the pump dispensing top. You can get a very specific amount of product out of the bottle and nothing goes to waste. My skin loved this serum and it looked great while I was using it. Yet another Essano product I love!

I got this in a beauty vault and just recently started using it. For 2 weeks now I’ve been using it at nights after my toner, right before my night cream. I haven’t changed anything else in my skincare routine and I can’t really see or feel any difference at all. It’s a nice texture, soaks in very fast, so definitely need a cream afterwards, I only use it at night as I don’t have time in the mornings for an extra step.

I like the scent, it’s nice and not too strong. The bottle is also very chic and the pump works really good, I need around 3-4 pumps for my face and neck.

Overall I like using it, thinking it’s helping my skin, but I really don’t know what it really does, as I can’t detect anything different in the appearance or feel of my skin sadly.

This serum works really well. I was surprised that a serum you can purchase at the supermarket works so well. The serum also goes a long way and a couple of pumps is all you need. It is fast absorbing and leaves your skin feeling great.

I was needing a new serum and purchased this via the vault . I am not keen on the packaging for Essano products as I hate the pink boxes so have been a little reluctant to try -Silly I know. Inside the box is a lovely brown glass pump bottle with gold writing which I like the look of very much and is a decent size with 30 mls for $30 so is at a very good cost compared to most serums. The pump works really well so make sure you direct it into your hand so you do not waste any . The colour is a creamy ,unattractive colour but the scent is a nice rose so that makes up for the look and not overpowering. First time I used the serum I was much too enthusiastic and ended up with flakey stuff on my face so was not off to a good start. I was more careful after this and have found a little certainly goes a long way. I have found my skin is softer with continued use and if you don't apply too much absorbs nicely into my neck and face so I would possibly purchase again however not my favourite serum.

I purchased this in the Vault. My skin seems to be aging rapidly and it's really scaring me. I didn't read reviews until it was on it's way...

Most people said it balls up . And I didn't think twice about it. But now I see why..

It smells like xantham gum, which to me smells like gelatine. Very slight floral fragrance , super light though. The colour is a peach nude. And it flies out of the little pump bottle.

It's very easy to pump out, just cup your hand haha , cause it comes out at lightening speed.

A slim easy to use 30ml amber glass bottle with black pump top and clear cap. Take it anywhere it's small enough. ONLY use one pump , two pumps cause extra balling (looks like you've got skin peeling off and it's rolled up into balls on your face) Since it just piles up onto your skin does that mean the product still penetrates your skin?

I've found the best way to use this product is at night . Cleanse, tone, collagen repair then I oil up my face , with Rosehip Oil

I cannot wear it during the day under my neutrogena wrinkle repair or I can't apply my foundation onto my face. A flaky mess!! However it does leave my face , neck, hands and arms soft if used at night. And wait atleast 15 minutes before applying something over top.

It does work, there's just tricks to using it. After this bottle I may repurchase. Not seeing any plumping results yet .

I love the Essano brand products, and as they're supermarket handy and a good price, I grabbed this to try without thinking about it much.

This serum has a nice silly texture and is quite thin, kind of like a lotion. It feels soothing slathering this on and absorbs well and reasonably quickly. It has that mild rosehip scent as with most Essano products.

I do notice that this serum helps smooth my frown lines, and generally brighten my skin.

The only problem that I had with this product is that when I neared the end of the contents of the bottle, the last bit is really stuck in there. I feel that it's a significantly amount of waste of you don't dig it out..

Really like this serum and the price isn't bad so will probably repurchase at some stage.

I'm not a huge fan of Essano, simply because something of theirs gave my face a horrendous rash and I didn't realize until I was halfway through the product. Using this product came with a bit of fear, but luckily I had nothing to worry about.

I like the packaging, it matches the rest of their line but somehow feels and looks just a little bit more luxurious. I do not like the pump at all though, it fires the product like a machine gun would a bullet. I can aim at my hand and the product comes out with such force it flies back up and gets on my chest or face.

The serum is quite thick, I’m used to serums being runnier. It’s a light brown/grey kind of color, and I don’t really notice any smell to it either, so that’s cool. It claims to smooth and soften wrinkles and I’m not 100% convinced it does that. My wrinkles are still there, but they might be slightly more hydrated than before. That could be down to other products too, so I’m still not convinced.

I’m glad this is readily available at supermarkets, in case I do feel like repurchasing. It might not do everything it says but it is still a great serum I enjoy using!

I love Essano usually so I was pleased to get two of these from BBBEs.

I like the pump bottle and the branding is typical Essano colours.

The product smells like all other Essano products - kind of rosehip meets cardboard.

As I've said before, I use a TON of serums and oils and apply them frequently throughout every evening. I note that I can only use a small amount of this before it stops absorbing and dries and flakes - grossss. Having applied too much then washed it off, I noticed my skin felt quite good, so it may work as a cleanser lol or at least it works ok if over-applied then washed off. If I stick to using a small amount it doesn't hydrate my skin as much as I like.

I will try to use the rest of this bottle but will put the extra bottle in my products-to-gift box.

Sadly this serum is a disappointment for me.

I recieved this serum in the last beauty vault . I’ve been religiously using this for a couple of months every night. My skin type is normal to dry skin with fine lines forming .

Bottle is made of brown glass . Has this gold writing on it . On the bottle it suggests to use morning and night. I just use it every night . In the morning I tend to wear full faced make up . I try not to mix my skincare in with it .

Consistency of this serum is smooth creamy runny texture. It smells like a bunch of fresh roses . Full of sweetness and richness. Feeling I get when I apply it is refreshing smooth and my skin seems to absorb it within five minutes .

My results from using this is hydrated skin . Smoother texture . I haven’t noticed and visible changes to my fine lines . My skin does feel a bit more plump .

I can possibly see myself repurchasing this for the hydration aspect . It doesn’t take as long as an oil based serum to absorb . The time frame is quarterd. Price wise it’s fair .
