Although I use a wide range of brands when it comes to skin products, this is the only daily moisturiser I use now. I have quite oily skin and yet this keeps me moisturised without adding oil factor and it doesn't break me out. The smell is quite pleasant which is nice for anything that's going near my nose. I lasts a while as you don't need much for your face, and has kept my skin moisturised even through this harsh, windy winter. The price is also very affordable, and the mini sizes are great for travel. My fave!

I have been using this moisturiser since I had a trial of it from Countdown online shopping. After I finished the deluxe sample which actually lasted me a long time I purchased the full sized bottle.
My skin type: Combination (dry areas with oily t-zone)
Packaging, coming in a plastic bottle of semi opaque brown to resemble old glassware, and with a wrapping of essano logo and colour of rose pink, complete with a pump action dispenser which allows you to get the right amount in one shot for coverage over your entire face, creating less mess from overspill.
Formula, a nice thick cream that melts onto your face as you gently massage it in, I use this at night time right after I have washed my face as a skin booster and have only just started to do this since I got the deluxe as I had other creams in my regime and no real room for a rosehip one, especially when rosehip is a healing oil but the best thing about this moisturiser is that is also has jojoba oil in it which is brilliant for combination skin so the moisturisers has most skin concerns covered. The aroma of the cream is also amazing and transports you to a warm summer evening sat in the backyard of an old English rose garden with the heavy musk of warmed roses.
After using this cream for over the course of a fortnight, once a day, straight after cleansing my face at night time I found that my skin looked more perky and less tired. The combination of natural oils in the cream helps balance my skin.
There is no residual stickiness that you find with other creams, especially as with the pump dispenser you only take what you need, there is no left over on your hands to get sticky, it all melts nicely and settle quickly into your skin. It is as if your skin drinks it up!
I purchased this a week ago as I wasn't able to get hold of my usual moisturiser and I've been using it every morning and evening since. It has a pleasant fragrance - not too overpowering - and half a pump is enough to do my face and neck. I have combination skin so it's tricky for me to find products that cater to me but Essano's Rosehip Moisturiser keeps my face hydrated all day without leaving any oily residue and I've even noticed an overall improvement in the appearance of my skin (not so many breakouts, feels soft and supple and looks so much more healthy!) At $20 for a bottle I was initially a bit skeptical as I don't like to spend lots of money on something that won't work but I've been so impressed by it, I will be continuing to use this from now on :)
I have purchased and repurchased this for about a year now. I find it hard to get a moisturises that doent feel horrible on my face. I have tried a few and some feel as if they're too heavy, others overpowering with the scent and some I have just noticed do not do a single thing for my skin. I like the scent of this, it is quite subtle and while the bottle is small I only need like half a pump to do my whole face. I use it each time before i apply makeup to moisturise my skin underneath and when I take my makeup off at night and I have not found that it makes me break out. My complexion has evened out a little bit - my skin looks kind of glowy so I love this, will repurchase again!
I got a sample sized tube of this in a set from Countdown. To be honest I wasn't expecting much. However I have been pleasantly surprised. A nice and light lotion, this product is white in colour and to me, smells lighty lemony. This product hasn't irritated my sensitive skin and I am going to buy a full sized one this week. I layer this under my spf and it hydrates to the perfect level. I really like the fact that it is a homegrown company as well.
This is the first product from the Essano range that I have tried and I was drawn in by their use of Rosehip Oil.
I must say, I do like this moisturiser. It is quite light and great for everyday wear. The scent is pleasant but can take a little bit of getting used to. I really like the pump bottle and find them way more convenient than the typical tube. It is reasonably lightweight, doesn't feel greasy and it is gentle on the skin with lots of good natural ingredients.
I haven't noticed any improvement in the redness in my skin; but I haven't noticed it getting any worse! I would buy again; despite being a little more expensive then other supermarket brands, it is a decent size bottle and has lasted me a while so far. I am keen to try the other products after using this!
Tips: Countdown also often have sales including Essano - that would be the best time to give it a go.
I got this the other day, its not quite what I expected, the bottle is plastic, and the cream has a light pink tinge, however it does not exactly smell like roses. I use 2 pumps and find that is a good amount, but I think it absorbs into the skin really fast before I have had time to apply it to the whole face.
I love using this as an everyday moisturizer and like to follow up with it after my Essano foaming cleanser. It helps to restore and lock the moisture into my skin, I use it twice a day. At night after applying the cleanser and in the morning after washing my face with water. It's a great product to use under makeup as it's hydrating but also absorbs quickly and isn't greasy so my makeup stays put on top. Definitely a winner for me.
I use this ever morning after i've washed my face with the same brand! I find that it takes a while to soak in but leaves the skin feeling well moisturized. I would recommend using under makeup for sure, stays still the whole day but wait till it drys
I used this product for a month - didn't even finish the body. I use a daily facial scrub in my morning shower - followed by moisturising my face with this. It was too oily for me - and i found it caused acne in my t-zone. It is however very affordable and attainable!! I may pull it back out and give it another go :)
Tips: Maybe i was using wrong quantity?
