I found this a very effective cleanser, which left my skin feeling soft and clean. It easily removed my makeup at the end of the day, and washed off cleanly and quickly. The pump was a bit tight at the start, and it did dispense more than I needed sometimes. The design of the label is stylish and appealing, but I am trying to reduce my plastic consumption, so maybe providing refill bottles would be a good idea, and ensuring that the plastic used was recycled and encouraging recycling of the bottles would be appropriate.

Tips: Just use half a full pump of the product, a little goes a long way.
I haven't always been in love with cleansing.. There was one product that totally opened my eyes and changed my mind.. Since then however with pretty high expectations I have had an open mind at trying other cleansers..
I got a couple of these in a Sample bar box so have given them a fair good trial.
Easy to use pump. Ideal for keeping in the shower - not like lids with a flick open.. You know the kind that soak up shower water and go all gunky.. EW..
Nice formula that lathers easily. Feels good on the skin and does a pretty good job and all round cleansing, make up removal etc..
What I don't like is how 'squeaky' almost over cleaned/stripped my skin feels after using it. Being it is a product that is meant to have wondrous Rosehip Oil in it.. I certainly wasn't expecting that sort of result.
My skin might feel clean.. But it feels like its too tight and like its been stripped of the good stuff.. So in saying that I don't use it often! Its more a part time relationship rather than full time!
I got a trial pack of the Essano range and being a huge fan of rosehip oil and some of the other Essano products I was really hoping this cleanser would be great. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. I found that the cleanser didn't remove my makeup. I have to cleanse a number of time or use another makeup removing product.The cleanser has a nice sweet but subtle scent. It claims to be a foaming cleanser but it didn't seem to foam up for me. It did leave my skin feeling nice and soft (after numerous washes to gt makeup off). I would only recommend it to some one who doesn't wear makeup.
I love this! Bought the tester pack from countdown after deciding Cetaphil wasn't for me, and have been using it for two weeks. I've noticed my skin is firmer and my pores are smaller, and my blemishes on my chin and cheeks (which are usually out of control) have gotten much smaller. Would definitely recommend, great for a supermarket brand!
Tips: Use after removing make up with a make up remover or cleansing balm
I got this in the Essano trial size pack, but this is probably my least favourite of the products from that.
I love the packaging; both the colour scheme and the practicality of the pump bottle, and I really like the smell, which is a slightly sugary rose scent in my opinion, but very mild and not irritating.
However, I just don’t love much else about this cleanser. Because it doesn’t foam up a lot (it’s almost in between cream/foaming), I have to use quite a bit (at least four pumps with the mini bottle) to actually have enough for my entire face. That means I go through a lot of product each time I use it.
The main reason I won’t be repurchasing this is that, like every other foaming cleanser I’ve tried, it leaves my skin feeling a bit tight and dry. It’s nowhere near as bad as some other brands I have tried, but given that it claims to replenish the skin’s natural moisture barrier and be non-drying, it is disappointing. That being said, my skin just doesn’t seem to agree with any type of foaming cleanser, so it may not have this effect for everyone.
This isn’t the worst cleanser I’ve used, but it’s still not for me. If you’re wanting to try it out I’d definitely recommend buying the pack of mini size products so that you can try out some of the rest of the range also – the night cream and rosehip oil are particularly amazing!
This foaming cleanser is silky, smells divine and leaves my skin feeling fresh and soft. Not like other foaming cleansers that strip the skins oils, this one nourishes the skin. Love love love!
Tips: A tiny amount goes a long way xo
I purchased this on a whim when I ran out of my usual cleanser. what appealed to me most was the fact that it was a gel foaming cleanser so I could use it with my foreo cleansing tool. Unfortunately I don't find I get much of a foam from it, and personally I'm not a large fan of the scent that this product has. However it does what it says and is a good cleanser, I just don't think it's the one for me!
I am hard to sway from my standard skincare routine, & really, I need an exfoliator. This is the only reason I would not buy again. It smells amazing, the whole series is awesome, the night cream is my favourite, but as they don't offer an exfoliating cleanser, it's not something I would buy again. If you have dry or sensitive skin though, then I would definitely recommend this,
This is a good basic average cleanser! I must be the only person in the world that is immune to rose-hip. So I gave this to my teenage brother that has sever acne to try out. Therefore I am writing this on his behalf and how well it worked for him.
At fist he was put off the scent but to me it smelled divine. So girly and rosey. One pump is enough and it therefore made it so much easier for someone in there teens especially boys to use.
It took about 3 weeks before we noticed a major difference. His pore were much clearer aswell as the blemishes where much smaller! No big bumps here! He seems much more confident now and he doesn't mind the scent due to how effective it was.
I suffer from a combination of oily, dry, blemished and sensitive skin. Finding a skincare that works for me is hard work! I was hesitant to try Essano as I thought adding 'oil' to already slightly oily skin would cause further problems, BUT I am so surprised, and happy with the results.
I have used this product for the past year and my skin blemishes have improved, my skin is more hydrated, and it cleanses like a dream. I use this at night in the shower and it's also great for removing all my daily makeup.
Great price, great product, highly recommend.
