Average but affordable

I'd been wanting to try the essano Advanced Brightening Vitamin C Concentrated Serum for a while and grabbed it from the Rewards Vault. Like others I have mixed reviews of essano products - they're at a good price point and make some great promises in terms of being cruelty free, paraben free and in recyclable packaging, however some expected product benefits can be lacking.

essano's Advanced Brightening Vitamin C Concentrated Serum comes in a small glass bottle with a pipette. It's a creamy white colour and two drops effectively covers my face and neck before I use a moisturiser or night cream. It's a nice consistency which absorbs easily and is not sticky.

I was surprised to realise this product is only 5% Vitamin C and while my skin appears brighter I don't believe it's done anything for my skin pigmentation. I wouldn't repurchase.

Tips: I've used Vitamin C serums from Kiehls (10% Vitamin C) and Olay and while they're pricier they come in bigger bottles and seem more effective to me.

Yes!

This product is great. It comes in the standard Essano pink packaging. inside the box is a small dropper bottle containing the product. The product is a thick white lotion with a creamy orange scent.

I have applying this at night and I love the look and feel of my skin - beyond what I would have expected. My skin does look healthier and is brighter as per the product claim. I'm surprised as I like Essano but not usually this much, with the exception of the wrinkle rescue. I like that this product doesn't smell of rosehip, the primary reason I'm not usually as keen on Essano products.

The only criticism I have is that the lotion is too thick for the dropper and I have to bang it against my hand to get the product to dislodge. But otherwise, it is a fabulous product and my skin is clearly benefitting from it.

Tips: Apply at nights to clean skin - lovely!

Alright

I really like the way this feels on my skin when I apply it but it hasn’t really changed anything. It says it will brighten my skin but it’s made no change. I’ll continue to use it up because I do like it as part of my routine and I also really like the scent but after that I will be looking elsewhere. I do think it’s potentially worth the cost.

LOVE THIS!

I really love this Vitamin C Serum!!! I've been using it in the mornings and love the way it makes my skin look and feel! It's got a lovely light citrus scent which disappears almost immediately so doesn't irritate my skin and leaves a light, glowy and radiant finish to the skin. I've been using the Essano Niacinamide serum in the evenings and I believe that using these serums this way has really contributed to my skin's clarity, smoothness and glowiness! Would definitely recommend this serum! I get it from Pak n Save when it's on sale as it's a little cheaper than other places but definitely worth it!

Tips: Keep it away from windows because Vitamin C is sensitive to light and it can make the formula go bad. You only need one or two drops to cover your face and neck so a little goes a long way. If you haven't used serums or acids before, start off using it a couple of times a week and work your way up to every day if you have sensitive skin!

Nice Serum cream

Hi beauties, I have been using this for quite a while now, and it has made a difference to my skin. Doesn’t look so dull, feels soft and smells great! But I do prefer the Oil Serums best x

Tips: Use a little goes a long way, wait for it to dry before applying a moisturiser to your face and neck, so it absorbs better x

Great, light serum

It’s a great feeling, light serum. So far in the 3 weeks of using my skin does look brighter. It also feels good under moisturiser or foundation.

Tips: A little goes a long way!

Wonderful!

Big fan of Essano products, so when I saw this I knew I had to try it. I have dark circles from old scars on my chin, lots of redness, and developing crows feet on my eyes. The bottle lasted me quite some time, using every day at least once, sometimes morning and evening. After about a week of continuous use I noticed how radiant my skin was first thing in the morning. Hadn’t see a fresh face like that in years, so I was surprised. Although I still have very faint dark spots, and the redness has come back, this serum did lighten, moisturise, and plump up my skin.

Beautiful Serum

I really like how this serum feels on my skin it sinks in and feels very hydrating, I have been using this product for a month now and haven't noticed any lightening of my dark spots as yet but I still have plenty of product yet to see if there are any results. The container for this serum is so tiny I thought I would go through this very fast but after a month I still have around half of it left a little actually does go a long way way which is nice the formula is very fluid like and spreads over skin really well. I dont particularly like this product under my makeup it seems to break it apart by mid day so I only use this now at night and when you wake up the skin does feel so lovely. I will continue to use even if I don't see results of lightening its still a really lovely product to add into your skincare routine.

Love this product

I lived using this product. I like how it is hydrating but not oily like a serum so good for oily skin. Has a pleasant scent and has given my skin a nice healthy glow.

Tips: Use a small amount use at night, not under make up
