As someone who had terrible acne as a teenager, I never thought I'd see the day when I would be slathering oil on my skin! I purchased the Essano mini set after hearing so many wonderful things about it, and I am very glad I did. My skin is very combination- I have a somewhat dry forehead, enlarged pores on my nose and cheeks and frequent hormonal breakouts on my chin. This means that I have no idea what face products I should be using to fit my skins needs. I have tried a cleanser from this range a year or so ago, and found the scent to be quite off-putting (I think they have reformulated since then as I have the cleanser in the mini range and it doesn't smell the same). This rosehip oil has a hint of that musky scent, but in my opinion its very subtle and disappears upon application. Using this oil or the first time was quite terrifying- I was sure that I would wake up to find my entire face had broken out! I've been using this for a couple weeks now however, and no such thing has happened. I apply a couple drops prior to night cream, pressing my oil kissed hands first onto my forehead (so the bulk of the oil hits the driest part of my face), then my cheeks, and whatever residual is left onto my chin. I let this soak in for a minute before applying eye cream and night cream. My skin feels soft and plump after application. I do find that the oil sits a little on top of your skin so I would only use this at night. I also only use this a couple times a week as I'm not sure my skin would need this intense an amount of moisture on a daily basis. I will definitely repurchase when my sample size vial runs out.

Tips: Squeeze 2-3 drops onto your hands, rub your palms together quickly then press onto your skin (quickly before your hands absorb the oil!)
Awesome product. I loved using this on my skin. I saw results when using the product. It made my skin feel super clean.
So I wanted to know what all the hype about using an oil on your face after cleansing was...decided to trial the pack from local supermarket....wow,am pleasantly surprised with what Rosehip oil did,the nest morning,my aged skin felt so nourished & hydrated I literally freaked & thought how soft as a babies bottom my skin felt...haven't stopped using this stuff,am now a converted user
I love rosehip oil as I find it really helps add a bit of extra moisture to my skin - especially during winter! I usually would apply this after cleansing my face and then apply moisturiser on top, and if using for stretch marks, scars or sun damaged skin I would exfoliate in the shower and apply this afterwards. It absorbs really quickly and doesn't actually feel super oily on your skin so I feel like it would suit all/most skin types. Would definitely recommend!
I recently started using this product again after giving myself a break from it for about 3 months and I forgot how much I loved it. I use this every night before my moisturizer, it takes about 3 drops to do my whole face. By the time the morning comes around it has completely absorbed and leaves my skin feeling great. The packaging is really good on this, it has the little eye dropper so I can easily control how much I'm using and the bottle is glass which I like, plastic to me is a bit cheap feeling. The price point for this is great and its super easy to find (local supermarket). I haven't gone through a whole bottle yet so I can't tell you how long it lasts but I would say possibly the better part of 6+ mths. I know for some people using oil on your face sounds a bit scary but it is worth giving a go as it also helps with acne scarring and fine lines. I never find that my skin if left oily but I do have Normal/Dry skin so I'm not sure how this would go on someone with Oily skin. The one thing I don't like about this is the smell, to me it just smells like cooking oil and it does tend to linger for a while but its natural so I suppose the smell isn't going to be really nice and floral, but I do wish it had a faint smell of something nice. Overall great product :)
I saw this at the supermarket after seeing a little bit about it in a magazine, so thought I would pick up a bottle of the oil to use at night in combination with my normal eye cream. This product is wonderful! Easy to apply and massage into the face. It absorbs very quickly too which is good if you don't want an oily pillow. I have noticed that it is very good for healing any spots or marks on my face and generally reduces the redness. For the price of the bottle and how far it goes on each application, I believe it is fantastic value. It is so good to see an organic NZ product on the market that does as it says!
Tips: Avoid popping this on the oily parts of your face, but apply liberally on any marks or redness.
This is a really nice gentle face oil. I think that it did help with some redness on my skin. I didn't really find it all that moisturising though. I had to use a fair amount to feel that my skin had been moisturised. It is kind of an average product for me. Also I think it does help a bit with scars though if you keep up with putting it on them at least every night.
This Rosehip Oil has been the best thing for my skin. I use this morning and night before my moisturiser. I use it all over my face including around the eye area. Its cleared up dry skin patches, help reduce pores, has reduced redness and makes my skin feel so soft. It also seems to be helping my makeup sit better and last longer throughout the day. I have Oily skin with the odd dry patches. it seemed strange to put oil on an oily complexion, but it actually seems to help control it. The only reason i haven't given it 5 out of 5 is for the slight smell of the oil. i haven't tried the Triology or any other Rosehip oil yet, so not sure if this is the same with all of them. But its not strong enough or bad enough to stop me using this amazing product. Great price so its an affordable staple. Definitely try it!
Tips: A little goes a long way so just add a little at a time.
I decided to buy a Essano Rosehip Oil face care pack as I had brought their face wash while waiting for my usual to be delivered when I had run out. I didn't like the smell of the oil, but it didn't like my skin even more! Felt like it was burning, and normally my skin is incredibly tolerant. And despite only using a little I felt and looked like I had dipped my face in a bucket of oil
Tips: Maybe test a little on the inside of your elbow or somewhere discreet if your skin is sensitive before putting it on your face.
I bought this product with the Essano Treat your skin pack as I thought that it would be a great way to become introduced to the range. I am honestly only two days into using the Rosehip oil and my face already feels so different. I use the oil both morning and night and followup with either the facial moisturiser or night cream as an added boost of hydration and my face is truly loving it. I am quite oily normally and don't normally put oils on my face to wear during the day but after experimenting with this product, I've realised that I can apply this in the morning, followed by the facial moisturiser and I won't look like a greasy mess at the end of the day. My skin feels so much softer too.
Tips: The tincture vials look small but 3 to 4 drops is enough. Follow that up with the facial moisturiser for an added treat for your skin. Don't forget your decolletage
