essano Clear Complexion Purifying Gel Cleanser Review

I love natural products, as they usually seem to work with my sensitive skin, and am always on the hunt for more, so this product was right up my alley. It is packaged in a cute white and pink tube which is pretty easy to open/close and easy to control the amount of product that comes out. The smell is a natural sort of herby and fresh kind of smell which I didn’t find too unpleasant. I found I didn’t need too much product to cover my whole face. The cleanser applies really smoothly, however doesn’t really foam up or anything but I didn’t mind that. It doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry, tight or stripped of nutrients, which I really liked. It was nice and gentle- my skin had absolutely no reactions whatsoever which was great! My skin felt clean, smooth and fresh after using this. I did find that my skin has become clearer and less red after using this for four weeks. I don’t have particularly oily skin (mine is more dry), however at times it can get oily in the T-zone, which I had noticed kind of went away with using this cleanser. I have also had less breakouts since using this, I still got a few odd pimples here and there, but it was mostly controlled. For $15 it’s a pretty good cleanser and does it’s job well!

Aleyah (15) really loved the gel cleanser I would see her every night cleansing away , happily doing so.

I don't think the Essano Clear Complexion range had a fragrance at all maybe slightly medicinal?

She said her skin felt smooth and clean , no tightness and her skin looks great!

She said it had a very mild bubbling action but the bubbles dissappeared quickly. She used a 20c coin sized squirt

Rinsing clean , no residue at all. Aleyah has really enjoyed using these products and recommends them to her friends.

At first I was sceptical about changing my current face-washing routine to use this cleanser as I was very happy with my Cetaphil. However, this cleanser has wowed me beyond belief! Thank you so much Beauty Review for giving me the chance to trial this product because it has changed my skin-care routine forever!

This cleanser is described as a gentle, soap-free product that will leave your skin feeling clean, refreshed, and non-greasy. Boy, does it deliver! I have never had a cleanser that seems to do everything it says it will, and more! Not only does my skin feel thoroughly cleansed without being dried out, but it also controls oil production, and as an added bonus, is the best makeup remover I've ever used!

I had no idea it would be so effective, but after a couple of uses, I stopped bothering to use my micellar water, and now only use this cleanser to remove my makeup. With only one wash, my skin is left feeling clean, controlled, and amazingly makeup free! I can't believe this cleanser can do all of this without making my skin feel dry, I never need to use another cleanser again!

I love how this range is organic. The packaging is so cute!

I also find that it’s handy having the bottle upside down as you don’t need to force the product to the other end.

It’s quite a thick gel almost but once you start to massage it into your skin it foams slightly.

It doesn’t have a strong smell to it which is good as some perfumes can irritate my skin. I feel like my skin is squeaky clean after I use this. It’s also great at removing make up!!

A little goes a very long way and it’s quite easy to accidentally squeeze too much out

I was sent this cleanser by BR as part of the complete Essano Clear Complexion range. I really like this cleanser. It has a gel texture and an interesting banana-ish smell (which I personally love) and feels nice on my skin.

I used this product religiously morning and night and I've had some great results. I usually break out each month on my chin and this month I have miraculously managed to avoid that! I would like to credit this cleanser and the whole range, actually, but I am sure there are many factors!

I love the smell, the simple packaging and the texture. I also love that the product is made up of great ingredients that aren't going to damage my skin in the long term. I would definitely recommend this product - although I will note that the texture is not necessarily for everyone (ie if you prefer more of a scrub or an oil cleanser).

This is a really nice gentle cleanser that I would recommend to anyone with oily skin.

The cleanser comes in a standard squeeze tube that matches the rest of the line.

This is a gel cleanser that is really gentle on the skin. Sometimes even gel cleansers are a little harsh on my skin, causing it to feel tight and overproduce oil. This cleanser was great. It does foam a little bit,but not too much and very gently cleans the skin without stripping all the oils away.

This cleanser did help control my oil, but I found that it was a little to gentle to really get into my pores and remove all the dirt and gunk. It did remove my makeup, but not my waterproof mascara.

I did like how gentle this cleanser was, it did help prevent further breakouts and made my skin look nice, I just wish it did a little more. I would use this product again

Big fan of this! Love the smell, and makes my face feel refreshed and clean, after using. Does everything I look for in a cleanser and has simple, but pretty packaging.

Used this to wash my face after taking off my makeup and have no complaints at all about it. Would definietly recommend and think it's a really good cleanser for $15!

I really like this cleanser, it's very gentle and makes your skin feel really clean. Some cleansers can almost strip your skin and make it feel tight, but this one cleanses your skin so well without drying it out.

Often after cleansing my face I will virtually be gasping for a moisturiser, but this one kept me feeling soft and nourished.

I would recommend this to anyone with acne prone and/or dry-combo skin. It works so well on my skin, and doesn't break me out! A lot of texture on my face has been reduced and I think this cleanser has definitely helped. Like most of the other products in this line, I will be repurchasing when I run out!

I have been using this wash for about a year now, and I am currently on my second tube. It has completely changed my early-thirties skin- I feel like I am about to jinx it but, honestly, I used to have acne all the time and now I just get the occasional hormonal breakout. I does feel dry after washing but I use the accompanying moisturiser after this (seriously good). It has BioDTox (tm) which cleans pores and keeps sebum levels at a healthy level. It has rosemary leaf in it and other certified organic ingredients. It definitely smells fresh and natural- a little like tea tree oil (actually has green tea leaf extract in it). This clever cleanser has confirmed my faith in natural (this is 96.6% natural origin of total) skincare- I am a total convert.
