essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser

Comes in standard essano brown plastic with pink label. This product has a pump which I love. 1 pump is perfect dose. The formulation is a light almost clear gel consistency and has a light fragrance that’s hard to describe maybe faintly Freesia and honey? But the scent is not overwhelming and quite pleasant. I’m not sure if it reduces redness yet but haven’t had much time to trial after a fiasco with couriers. I can say it’s gentle and not stripping so no tightness after use and I think my skin is feeling smoother and blackheads improved. I will definitely purchase this again for the right price

The essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser is a gel formula, designed to remove oil, makeup and pore-clogging grime.

The formula is clear, and quite thick. It is easy to spread onto the face, and lathers up easily with a little water. I applied it with my fingers and found it really smooth and gentle on my skin. It doesn't have a strong scent, if anything I would describe it as clean smelling, and the whole regime smells the same.

I have been using this cleanser as part of my night time skincare routine, and found that it removes my makeup very easily, with just a gentle scrub using my fingers or cotton face pad. In general I am not very acne-prone, but I have not had any new spots pop up during my trial of this product. My skin is a normal/combination type, and since using this cleanser my face is feeling smooth and pretty good - not too dry or oily!

I have enjoyed using this cleanser and I think I'll definitely continue to use it!

My skin is complicated. Some days it is dry but for the majority of the time it is oily, especially around my t-zone. As soon as I saw that this product helped to remove oil AND unclog my pores, I knew I just had to try it. I wanted to do a little experiment the first day I used it and didn't remove any of my full face of makeup, just to see how powerful it was in removing make up. I definitely recommend that you use some form of makeup removal before washing your face with this as my skin was definitely not clean using this alone. The next day I removed my make up first before washing my face and what a difference it made. After washing my face my skin felt super clean and clear and not dry like some other oil control cleansers can make your face. I couldn't believe how soft my face was afterwards. It also has a pleasant scent and is not overpowering, so if you are sensitive to scent, this one could be for you! These past few days using this cleanser, I must say, my skin is looking a lot clearer and not so red. I would even be as bold to say that some of my pigmentation on my face is lesser. I would also say my oils are calmed down a little as well.

I would use it again. I think my only criticism is how little product you get for the price but that would be it. All you oily girls out there GIVE IT A GO!

I was hesitant to try this product as I have never tried Nicinamide before. The product itself was a nice smell and was an easy pump bottle for great quick access to the product. The packaging was a cute colour. When I started using it I had a few spots on my t zone. It made my skin feel soft and supple afterwards. I didn't need to use a lot of the product to get a good result. Using in conjunction with the toner and moisturizer I found the quality really great. I have combination skin so it didn't leave my skin too dry or too oily. I have found that my skin is looking a lot better and my spots have cleared up. My skin is looking more refreshed! All in all I would definitely recommend it to others. Really have enjoyed trying it out and having great results from it. Thanks Beauty Review!

I tend to avoid cleansers designed for oily skin as they can cause increased oil production, but this one is so beautifully balanced (follow through with the toner and moisturizer for optimal results) that it hasn't caused any issues.

This cleanser comes in a easy to use pump bottle, dispensing the correct amount of product each time. The cleanser has nice fresh ocean breeze type scent which adds a nice touch to my skincare routine.

I usually remove make up with a cream cleanser before cleansing, but I went straight in with this one in the interests of testing it out and it did a great job removing long wear make up including waterproof mascara.

I really love that this product does it all (cleanses and improves skintone / texture) with gentle, yet powerful ingredients. I'll definitely be buying more when it runs out.

This is hands down, THE BEST cleanser I have used for oily skin. I saw immediate results after using this (along with the toner and moisturiser) and the oil levels on my skin were next to nothing by the end of the first week.

The cleanser smelt a little bit chemically, but I was happy to not be lathering some overpowering flowery scent all over my face. It lathered up really well, and I found 2 pumps to be more than enough to cover my face and neck. My face felt super soft and my skin toned looked more even from the first use.

My t-zone is usually an oil slick my lunchtime, but I found with using this system I was pushing it out to 4pm and beyond before I started looking really shiny and horrible. I'm hoping that continuing to use this system will push that time out even further!

I really loved this product, the bottle was informative and directions were easy to follow, I used it in the shower at night before going to bed. A little went a long way with this product and it left my skin feeling very clean.

This is the first product I’ve tried that’s specifically designed to reduce oil, and has actually done what it says it will!

From the first use, I noticed that by the end of the day, my oil level was almost exactly as it was after cleansing in the morning.

Mild smell, which I appreciate! I’d highly recommend using the entire system, as I’m sure this contributed to the success of the product.

Only negative would be the size of the bottle. I’d probably prefer it to be slightly bigger.

I have really enjoyed using this cleanser and will definitely be sticking with it from now on. It feels very light to use and scrubs away dirt very effectively leaving my skin feeling soft and refreshed. The scent is pleasant and not too overpowering. A little goes a long way with it so the bottle should last quite a while. I’ve been double cleansing and my skin has felt much, much better with this product!

I felt the gel really helped with balancing the oils on my face and leaving a fresh feeling after. I have been using this deep cleaner for almost 2 weeks, and as my skin has been becoming less oily.
