essano Hydrating Rosehip Gel Foaming Cleanser

I don't really know why, but I wasn't expecting much from this product. I received it in a gift set of 5 decent trial sizes, which I purchased for a week long trip to Australia. The smaller size came inn a small soft pink coloured screw top tube, but the full sized product comes in a larger brown bottle with a label inn the same pink, and a pump-action dispenser.

The clear, softly scented gel doesn't lather a lot - a good sign as this always indicates to me that there isn't a high soap content. It smoothes onto skin and clears away makeup, grime and daily normalities like oil.

The rosehip and aloe are super soothing and non-drying, and skin is left clean, soft, and feeling healthy. This cleanser rinses cleanly away, without residue or any form of tingling or stinging sensation -and no dry skin! It seemed to balance out my oily, acne prone skin well.

I'm panning cleansers at the moment but this will be the one I purchase when mine are used up. Natural, effective and cheap - what's not to love?

I love using Essano Rosehip Gentle Foaming Cleanser, it cleans my skin and doesn’t leave that ‘tight’ feeling afterwards. I feel my skin moisturised but clean at the same time. I love the smell of the cleanser too. I will definitely use it again!

Have been using this for almost a year now and its only just starting to get low now. It is very gentle and doesnt dry your skin out. I need to use a makeup remover to completely remove makeup but have found my skin doesnt seem to get as many pimples since using this.

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 .

Even though this says gentle, I feel like it does a very effective job cleansing yet not drying me out completely. For someone with dry skin, this is a plus. I love foaming cleansers as I feel like they do a better job of clearing oils and dead skin. The is a lovely daily cleanser and I love how it has natural ingredients.

I'll start by saying that I have normal- oily skin, that's prone to breakouts. This cleanser is wonderful, its like a gel, not really foaming as it states, but its enough of the right consistency that it feels like its doing a good job. Its not drying at all, doesn't leave my skin feeling tight afterwards, yet cleansing enough that it feels like it worked. If that makes any sense at all lol. It doesn't leave me feeling like I've got to hurry to get moisturiser on afterwards. I've had barely any breakouts at all after using this range.

It smells lovely, like the rest of the range, sort of a warm floral fragrance, but its not overpowering. Takes off my makeup easily, except for waterproof liner.

It hasn't caused my skin to breakout, dry out, or freak out in anyway, I love this stuff and will definitely buy more!

I really like this cleanser!

It comes in a pump bottle which I find super convenient – I hate having to unscrew bottles etc when doing my routine.

For a ‘natural’ product it smells delicious! I am not normally a fan of the ‘natural’ smelling products so this sweeter scent is a great change in my opinion. I honestly can’t stop smelling it as I wash my face.

My skin is sensitive dry-combination and I find this formula just right. It doesn’t strip my face of moisture, is gentle, but it does actually clean it well. I had no irritation at all.

It doesn’t fully remove my waterproof mascara, so I still have to remove that separately (not a biggie for me though).

A little goes a long way - I received 2 x 30ml samples in a subscription box and I have been using it for the longest time.

Easy and convenient to purchase, just from your local Countdown. The $13.99 price for 140mls is great considering how long it lasts!

I thought I would absolutely love this cleanser, and I did at first. For the price it does the job, it's natural, not overly scented and my face always feels clean after I have used it. I was hopeful that this product would help with my acne, and it seemed to at first. However now that I have been using it for awhile, the effects seemed to have diminished.

I have just repurchased this one as I liked my first bottle so much. I initially received a sample of it and have continued using it since last year.

I think what I like so much about this one is that it it's very gentle but still leaves my skin feeling clean. I find a lot of cleansers can leave my face feeling tight and dry afterwards, but I have not had any issues with this one. It has quite a thick gel consistency and lathers up nicely. The pump top bottle is handy for the shower althought the downside of that is that it's normally hard to get to the remaining product at the end of the bottle.

I wasn't sold on the scent initially. The first Essano product I tried was the body lotion (which smells amazing) and I was taken aback at first that they did not have the same fragrance. This one is a lot more delicate and unobtrusive though, and it has grown on me over time.

I have noticed on the odd forgetful occasion that it's not the best at removing heavy eye makeup. I normally use a separate product to remove it before I cleanse anyway, so this is not a dealbreaker for me.

Overall I feel like this is a great product and reasonably priced.

I had a tester of the cleanser, (as well as the other 3 items) it's beautiful to apply but sadly once finished I will switch. Rather then seeing an improvement in my skin, it's gotten dryer and redder with more break outs than usual. I believe I have sensitive combination skin that tends to me more dry, after a month and a bit of continuous use I have given up hope. I would recommend for everyone to at least give it ago as it's really affordable and readily available.
