essano Collagen Boost Certified Organic Night Crème Review

I was very excited to try this as I’m a big fan of natural organic skin care and I love the fact that it contains rosehip oil. I’m also excited to see if it does what it says it does and reduces fine lines and wrinkles - time will tell! The first I noticed was the cute packaging (I’m a sucker for something that looks nice in my bathroom cabinet). It is a small pottle which made me a bit wary of how long it would last - but I soon discovered you only need a very small amount. It smells great and is not too overwhelming. The product absorbs well as long as you use the right amount, and it leaves my skin feeling hydrated and firm, without being too heavy or greasy. That being said, I did feel a little sticky after about five minutes or so. I’ll keep using the product, but I personally prefer the feeling of a serum and I’m tempted to try this together with the Collagen Boost Serum.

Essano Collagen Boot Certified Night Creme comes beautifully packaged in a small glass jar which looks luxurious on my beauty shelf.

The texture of the cream is very thick, so a little goes a long way. The first night I applied far too much and it took ages to rub into my skin and disappear. By the second night I had gotten my application right and used a pea sized amount for my face and neck over my serum treatment. The cream spread easily and absorbed rapidly making my skin feel nourished and moisturised without feeling greasy. When I woke up in the next morning, my skin had a radiant glow.

Essano Collagen Boot Certified Night Creme has quite a strong fragrance of the natural extracts used, which is why I am giving this cream 4 stars instead of 5. But, I do like that it contains natural extracts and is also not tested on animals.

I will continue to use it and think it could also be a great multitasker on any other rough and dry areas of skin such as the cuticles.

The Essano Collagen Boost Night Creme is an affordable night time face care option. The consistency was thinner than I expected, as other night cremes I have used have been quite thick, however this means that a little product goes a long way, and the jar will last some time. I was initially put off by the smell, as I am not a fan of florals and it's definitely quite rose scented, however it is not too overpowering as to prevent me from using it. I like how easy it is to quickly rub into my face before bed, it is a product that fit seamlessly into my night time routine. After using this night creme for a week, there is not a noticable difference in my skin's appearance, but it does feel hydrated and soft. I am keen to continue using to see if it has any impact on fine lines and wrinkles.

I was lucky to get to trial this night cream as part of a trial team. Firstly the packaging is sleek and classy, the jar is nice and heavy and has a quality feel about it. The cream itself is rich, thick and has a gorgeous herbaceous smell to it that's not too overpowering. It feels luxe and rich going on but is a bit heavy which worried me as I have oily skin. It takes some time to absorb slowly but when it did my skin felt gorgeous and plump so I was hopeful for a great result. When I woke in the morning my skin was quite oily and there was just no wow factor for me, it's not bad but it's not outstanding either. I think it's probably better suited to normal or dry skin types. My skin is oily but also somehow simultaneously dehydrated which makes it tricky. I'm yet to find a night cream that delivers great hydration but isn't too heavy. All in all this was a lovely cream but just a tad on the heavy side for my skin.

I saw this pop up in Recently Reviewed and had to add my two cents worth!

I picked this up earlier in lockdown (so many moons ago!) and I've been loving it! To be fair I am partial to a bit of essano, especially the body care, and I needed a nightcream so figured with lack of store options I probably couldn't go wrong with this baby.

I was right! It's a great price and a wonderful product - super hydrating and a lovely treat for the skin at the end of the day. It smells like most other essano skin care, not overly scented, but a natural floral/herby smell.

This is a great intro to night creams, its just that little bit richer than a day cream and at a time when simple daily tasks ground us in normality, this adds a little touch of luxury to the mundane.

I have always loved essano. this night cream comes in a black jar and it has a thick white consistency. it doesn't have a very powerful smell.

a little goes a long way with this elegant cream. It does take a while to absorb into your skin but you will wake up with skin so soft and smooth. I fell in love with this cream my skin loves it, my skin is glowing and soft. This is definitely a night cream I will repurchase

I have received this cream for a trial, I must say am impressed with this night cream. I have always loved using cosmetic brands that are as natural as possible. And when I saw the first ingredient, which is water, I felt satisfied, in addition to the fact that the names of the other ingredients can be understood without much problem, which tells me that they are the most natural. This product has essential oils for our skin such as rosehip oil, sunflower seed oil, flaxseed oil and vitamin E, which are excellent emollients for our skin that hydrate and fortify. Its packaging is very fine and brings all the necessary information from its benefits, mode of application, skin type, ingredients, etc. The cream comes in a dark glass jar, it feels very solid, which also includes information about the cream. That seems great to me because that way I can correctly identify it when I take it out of its box. The texture of the cream is thick, its colour is off-white, its smell is peculiar to jojoba oil, or seeds. The cream is recommended for normal to dry skin. My skin is a combination type. But in my case, I feel free to apply it, because I have already used jojoba oil and never had any problem. I apply very little on the oily areas like my forehead and chin. And I apply to touches on the other parts of the face. My skin absorbs it super-fast. And I love that because it makes the application easier and does not take my time. Honestly, I don't have many wrinkles, but I have one between the eyebrows, which is where I have applied it with more patience with a slight massage. In the morning I have noticed that the wrinkle becomes less accentuated. And my face feels soft.

First and foremost a huge thank you to the BR team for giving me the opportunity to be on this trial I have been using quite a few Essano products lately so this trial was very relevant to me. Ok let's get down to business,the packaging is very feminine and pretty with it's signature pink colour and gold writing which gives the impression you are receiving a quality premium product without the hefty price tag that often comes with high end skincare.I love that there is no plastic wrapping in sight and the box is completely recyclable it was also lovely to see a wee message on top of the box "it's time for you" this made me feel more important and that Essano cares about their customers.The product itself is contained in a glass amber coloured jar to protect the contents from light and has a plastic screw top lid which is easy to take off and pop back on, everything from ingredients,sustainability to how to apply the product is in a decent size print and easy to read. On opening the jar I received a strong whiff of a botanical earthy scent which didn't really appeal to me because I prefer a more floral smell with jasmine notes but that's just my own personal choice.The consistency was very light and thin and did feel lovely smoothing into my skin each night,a little went a long way to make a difference to the feel and look of my skin,by morning my skin felt softer and looked more dewy and plumped.There was no allergic reaction when using this product on my sensitive skin although I did patch test for 24 hours or so just to be on the safe side.In terms of seeing reduced fine lines and wrinkles I did not notice too much of a difference but it is early days so I think with continued use my skin will keep improving but what I did notice was how hydrated my skin was compared to before I used this creme because my dry scaly patches that I get on my forehead and chin/cheek area were virtually gone! that alone is enough to keep me using this product. I would definitely recommend this lovely night creme it's affordable and comes from a sustainable reputable company that offers fantastic products that work without blowing your budget.I'm excited to see what else Essano brings out next.

I really enjoyed this product. I have quite dry and semi sensitive skin. I HAVE to moisturise twice daily and I need something really moisturising after I wash my face to rehydrate my skin. The collagen boost night cream comes in a glass container and packaged in a box. When you open the box there’s a little flap that has “it’s time for you” written on it. Yes it is! It’s so nice to be reminded your taking a little time out to do something for yourself and that is what skincare is for me. It has a seal under the lid which I like because it means no one has tampered with it. The box has plenty of info on it, including what it doesn’t have in it (all the additives), that it’s cruelty free and made in New Zealand and even a step by step night routine on the back for those who may not be aware of what you should be doing to take care of your skin and get the best benefits out of your skincare products. My first impressions were that there was a light fragrance but wasn’t overpowering and I could smell that it had oil in it (if that makes sense). It felt rich and heavy without being too thick to apply. Being a night cream I obviously use at night after washing my face and replaced my usual night moisturiser with it. On the skin it felt moisturising and slightly occlusive which I enjoyed because as I am prone to dryness, having a moisturiser with a the ability to act as a barrier and lock in its moisture is great for my skin type. If you are prone to oily skin or pimples perhaps look at a review with that skin type to see how it works for them. I really enjoyed using this at night time and when I woke up in the morning my skin still felt moisturised. Over the 2 weeks I tried this product it did feel noticeably softer and almost calmer as I get a bit of redness. I expect to see even more improvements as I continue to use it. No noticeable improvements in my wrinkles but I wouldn’t expect a lot 2 weeks in. It’s also a product that I would definitely consider to use during the day in the winter months when my skin is dryer. It didn’t feel too heavy which I find a lot of night creams do. All in all I found this a great product that I look forward to purchasing again and even trying more from the same line. It seems to be working, it’s cruelty free and made in NZ and doesn’t have extra nasties in it and it’s reasonably priced. Definitely worth giving it a try.
