essano Body Wash

I really do enjoy a good shower and to me what makes a good shower is a great Shower Gel/Body Wash. There is six varieties in the Essano range of body washes and I have used three of them. Needless to say I do enjoy these. I like the bottle size, 445mls, it is not too big to fit nicely in my shower along with my other things, it is 100 recycled material and can be recycled again, once you have used it all up. It has a pump, super handy, I really dislike the ones without a pump, they are so awkward to use. The actual body wash is a clear, quite thick liquid which I find lathers up super well, love a lot of bubbles! I find the scent just right, not too overpowering but enough to close your eyes and imagine you are somewhere exotic. For me, the best way to start or finish my day.

I've used a lot of Essano products over the last few years because they are a reasonably affordable supermarket brand, with better for you natural ingredients and New Zealand made, all things I like to have in skincare products.

The Essano body wash isn't the cheapest on the shelf (but not too expensive), but it's one that when I use it I feel like I'm making the more environmentally conscience choice.

The scents are nice and aromatic in the shower and the pump bottle is a good size. While I would still consider other brands of body wash (because I'm a product floozy), this is a choice I would definitely return to time and time again.

This product ticks all the ethical issues but yet comes in such pretty packaging which being pump you dont over use so lasts ages so is economical as a added bonus.

I love this product so much I'm onto my third bottle. I get the jasmine one each time which has the signature Essano fragrance I love. The coconut one is lovely too which I must try. The scents are very girly so keep my husband away which is handy!

The shower gel itself is clear but non drying like a creamy verison. It doesnt over foam but foams as much as you need.

Definitely a excellent staple product that supports kiwis!!!

I have used the charcoal flavoured body wash and it was amazing! left my skin feeling amazing and smooth. I use it with a loofa and the smell and flavour of the body wash was amazing. The bottles are large as well which means it lasts for a long time. Would definitely reccomend.

I was going through a phase in my life where i was buying a lot of products with coconut smells & ingredients. I love this product! Smells lovely i would recommend this product. I used it after every shower, and the lotion would last on my skin for a day. Smells amazing! That stayed around for a day as well. If you have really dry skin, i would recommend looking at a more thicker lotion that contains Urea. How ever this product is great for applying on before catching up with a few friends or seeing family it leaves you smelling great!

These body washes are really nice. They are gentle but effective, and smell great! I've used the Collagen & Goji Berry, Manuka & Elderflower, and Coconut & Frangipani, and would be keen to try some of the other scents.

I've been using the coconut and frangipani bodywash for the last couple of months and am enjoying it. It only takes a small amount on my loofah to be able to wash my body. It's not overly bubbly but spreads well which makes the bottle last ages. It's not as strong of a fragrance as other brands I have tried with the same notes but that's not too much of a issue as it gets the job done

smells very good , strong smell ,lotion is thick which contains essential oils in it , nurishes skin well .

I was lucky enough to be chosen to trial this body wash and the timing of it''s arrival was perfect as I'd just run out of my usual thanks to my darling 3 year old and her need to copy everything I do. Now the reason I have titled this review family fave is because not only did I use it and have to share with my 3 year old but apparently my husband was using it too as he liked the smell!! The packaging for this is lovely, stylish and practical- pumps make life easy particularly if you're trying to supervise little people in the shower with you and the instruction of one pump is easy and literally saves your product from going down the drain. I had the manuka honey scented wash for sensitive skin and was pleased to read that this is also cruelty free. This body wash is lovely, it has a nice subtle scent and doesn't smell sickly sweet like some honey scented products can, it lathers easily in the hand or onto a loofah. A little goes a long way and the scent lingers on the skin- my 6 month old ended up covered in it a few times and she smelt lovely when I got her up in the morning! In terms on value for money I'm impressed and we've already bought another bottle for the second bathroom as it really is going to be our new tried and trusted was for ourselves and the girls.

Made in NZ, this body wash is also cruelty and Palm Oil free, all of which are important to me when choosing products. It comes in a dark plastic bottle with a handy pump which makes it easy to use as well as looking pleasant. I used a loofah and found that two "pumps" were sufficient for my whole body. The lather is light and airy rather than thick. The fragrance is very light - almost undetectable, but I quite like that as it doesn't interfere with perfumes etc. My skin felt "clean" and soft after use and I had no issues with irritation or rashes. I will buy this again as it does what it claims (other than the very light fragrance) and is kind to my skin and my conscience
