essano Hydrating Rosehip Detoxifying Pink Clay Mask

I love clay masks and always love trying out new ones. Essano products for me have been a bit hit or miss. But fortunately my skin loves this! I got this on sale for around $12 which is great as I see the RRP is $16.99.

It comes in a brown pot with the gorgeous Essano packaging which I really find appealing. It is pale pink in colour and has a very subtle scent. I like to apply using an old foundation brush, I do this with all masks now as it is far less messy and you get less wastage of product. This is lovely, thick and creamy and goes on your face super smooth. I have sensitive skin and get no stinging at all.

I let this sit for around 15-20 minutes. It does dry quite quick and hardens but it is not a super tight feeling like some other masks. I jump in the shower to wash this off, add water and it washes off easily. Afterwards my skin is beautiful! Super soft and smooth. It does not give me any breakouts at all and my skin looks even and less red. This is a really nice mask and the pot has lasted me ages as I rotate different masks each week. Look out for this especially when on special as you can get it for a great price.

I was lucky enough to receive this as a freebie when I purchased two other Essano products online from Healthpost and I have been using it once a week for about the last month now and honestly my skin has a definite glow about it and looks healthier.What I love about this and pretty much most of the Essano products is that it is natural based and free from any harsh chemicals that are going to irritate my skin and ofcourse made right here in NZ.The container is made from a hard plastic and i'm not so sure this is recyclable so they may want to change to glass containers in the future.Dipping my fingers into the soft clay texture of Rosehip Oil,Shea Butter and Aloe Vera and applying evenly onto my face feels lovely and soothing.There is a subtle Rosehip scent to the masque but it's not offensive and the Masque dries quickly.I did feel a slight tinging on my skin as the masque was doing it's majic but did not suffer any bad skin reactions.I left my masque on for about 10-15 minutes and then rinsed thoroughly with warm water,my skin felt soft,smooth and had a healthy glow to it afterwards.I found my moisturiser was easier to apply and sinked into my skin better,I also found my foundation also applied more smoothly and evenly.I love this masque because the results are exactly what my skin needed and hitting the big 50 soon,I need to take better care of my skin so this is my weekly pamper treat which is affordable and a pleasure to use.

I love all the Essano products and thought it was time to give the clay mask a try. Like all their other products it’s beautifully packaged in their recogniseable natural and rose pink colours. The smell is a nice subtle scent, nothing overpowering. Very cost effective as you don’t need to use a lot of product. Nice and smooth to apply although it does dry to give that tight feeling that I’m not a huge fan of, but it’s the nature of the treatment and not unbearable for the 10-15 minutes recommended.

Big bonus – it dries to a natural skin colour so if you have ‘surprise’ visitors you aren’t answering the door with a blue or white coloured face.

In short, this has become an essential Friday night pampering product, follow up with the Essano night cream and it leaves your skin feeling beautifully clean, soft and moisturised.

I have been loving Essano products all year so definitely had to give this one a go. I picked it up in an online sale for $5. Packaging is on brand with the darkened pottle and rose pink accents. Has a lovely suttle scent, pleasant not overpowering. Soft clay cream consistency. Super smooth application.

Dries down really fast. Does not leave skin tight. My skin feels soft and smooth. Also looks clearer. Such a gentle mask but one that really gets the job. Will repurchase, I like this mask a lot.

I have tried just about every clay mask I could get my hands on and none had delivered what i wanted.... a purifying mask that didnt leave my skin feeling like it had been washed with sandpaper. I picked this up at New World for $16.80 which for a jar of this size is great value. Like all clay type masks it doesnt look too pretty in the jar but this one smells devine (quite rosy /earthy). It goes on easily and dries to a pink lightweight mask quite quickly. My skin felt incredibly soft and clean after using it and I’ll definitely continue buying this incredible product

I usually really like the Essano products, they've all worked great for me in the past but for some reason this one wasn't too good for my skin. I cleansed my face like I usually would and applied the clay mask and left it for 15 minutes, then washed it off. I really liked the feel of it on my skin and was amazed at how soft my skin felt but the next day I had lots of breakouts which really bothered me because I was really wanting this to work on my face. I decided to try it again a couple of weeks later and it did the same thing, I had breakouts the next day. I ended up giving the mask to my friend because I really didn't want it to go to waste.

If you have dry skin or just want hydration, this is the mask for you!! This mask feels so luxurious on your skin, it's so rich almost like a body butter consistentsy. It dries down to a clay mask and it's super easy to wash off with warm water and a cloth. I can not emphasis how SOFT and plump this makes your skin feel! OBSESSED
