Gentle Foaming Cleanser

I haven been using this cleanser for only a few weeks and I love it. I will definately repurchase. My face doesn't feel tight afterwards and combining it with the rosehip oil I've noticed my face feels softer. I am prone to breakouts but my skin had been really good.

Lightly Refreshing

Got this product in a smaller bottle as part of an Essano beauty pack which included the Rosehip moisturiser aswell.

I never really had a problem with dry skin until I started wearing makeup everyday, and noticed that my cheeks and between my eyebrows got super dry to the point where I was using multiple moisturisers on my face after washing it just so my skin wouldn't flake off!

However, with this product, I've found that my skin has improved a lot in terms of both feeling cleaner + making your skin feel super light!

The consistency of the cleanser is like gel, best applied when your face is already wet - I normally pump my desired amount into my hand then apply it to my face and lather it in circles. This product lathers really well, and I really enjoyed the hint of floral scent that it gave my face.

Worked extremely well as a cleanser, although I found that in terms of moisturising, that using this product in conjunction with the moisturiser in this range moisturised gave better results! Overall, very happy with this product.

Great for dry skin

I have tried a lot of cleansers, and this one is one of the best that I have tried. I find that foaming cleansers are too dry for my dry skin (I'm sure they're great if your skin is oily) so I prefer cream cleansers. This cleanser is more like a cream cleanser as it moisturisers your skin while cleansing. It leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. It is also mild to use, and does not irritate my skin.

Tips: You don't need to use a lot. One pump is enough for your face. It only foams a little so you can massage it into your face like a cream before rinsing it off.

Love!

Absolutely love this product!, removed makeup really well too. My face feels clean and fresh, with the added bonus of it being so natural. Only thing I wouldn't agree with is 'foaming cleanser' for me I found it to be a thick gel like cleanser. But still loved it!

Essano Gentle Foaming Cleanser

Originally I liked it but as time has gone on I don't like how my skin feels so dry after cleansing. It feels like it is stripping my skin of any moisture.

Best of the more affordable range

Over the past two years I've been having problems with my skin, namely I've transitioned from having dry skin to having combination to oily skin. Given the change I've been trying out cleansers like crazy trying to handle breakouts. And I've landed on this!! It's very affordable, I can get it in almost every supermarket, and it stops me from breaking out! Hurrah!! The only reason I'm not giving this 5/5 stars is because my face is still quite oily throughout the day and a cleanser should help with that. However if I go too much harsher I start to have problems in specific drier patches on my face. So I will happily settle for have a bit of an oily face to wash whilst avoiding many spots!

Tips: Great if you've got combination skin. It's gentle enough but really awesome for handling breakouts (or helping you avoid them all together!).

Nice but a bit drying for me

Just bought a trial box of the Essano range from Countdown. I normally use the Sukin Exfoliating cleanser, so this product was new to me. I put about a 2-pea sized blob on my palm and rubbed my hands together while in the shower. I found it rather like wet vaseline in texture, I wouldn't call it 'foaming', perhaps more of a lather. After using an exfoliator I found the feeling on my face a little odd, it seemed oily. I've heard of cleansing the face with oil so I thought that was fair enough. On washing it off I found that my face felt dryer than usual, and a little tight. Now, if you interpret that feeling to mean that you've cleaned your face, then you'll like this product. It doesn't strip the oils out like the sort of cleansers we used at teens to kill spots, it's pretty gentle compared to those. However I won't be using it again, and will go back to my Sukin product. On the plus side it did smell nice.

I purchased this as I saw it on special at countdown and have been wanting to try it out. It was pretty average for me, didn't really feel like it waa giving my skin a good cleanse and left it feeling quite tight and dry. Would not purchase again and had much higher hopes.

Value for money

Beautiful light cleanser that leaves your skin feeling smooth and hydrated. It foams up really well so you dont have to use too much product each time. Personally I'm not a big fan of the scent of this product however only having just discovered rose hip doesnt smell like flowers then that's justifiable. My face doesnt feel dry after using it. Great price for the amount of product you get.

Tips: Foam it up in your hands before applying.

This cleanser foams well and smells delicious, but it just doesn't do much for my skin. I find foamin cleasers dry out my skin more, so I'm a bit quatious when using this. It's not bad or great, if you're an avid fan of rosehip you may buy it just because of it's use as an ingredient.
