essano Hydrating Rosehip Gel Foaming Cleanser

This brand is now at the top of my list for skincare, i love it! so affordable and high quality! There seems to be a lot of us who love this brand, based on the glowing reviews.

I brought an Essano trial kit from Countdown, which included this facial cleanser.

Other products in the trial kit included Rosehip oil, facial moisturiser , night creme and body moisturiser.The little bottles are so very cute, and the trial sizes a perfect size. A great set to also take away travelling for a long weekend!

My skin can be dry, sensitive yet combination in some areas, it changes a lot during the seasons too. My skin tends to react to different products, so this was a great way to try all of these products to see if they were suitable. All of these products were fantastic and caused no irritation to my sensitive skin.

The packaging is great, stylish and looks like a luxury brand yet the price in comparison is so much cheaper than others! . The pump is great, more convenient and hygienic.

The facial cleanser is a lotion-like consistency and feels lovely cleansing the skin and so gentle on your skin. However, it does not do deep cleansing -so you will need a separate eye makeup cleanser to take away eye makeup and mascara. I think this is absolutely fine in my opinion, as its a gentle cleanser that doesn't leave your skin irritated or tight feeling like other cleansers!

The subtle fragrance of rosé is lovely and not overpowering.

Such a lovely product, like the rest of their ranges. All the range is now my holy grail! . I'm so glad i tried Essano out, as its so much more affordable than my clinique and Estée Lauder products.

A great cleanser that I will continue to repurchase!

I love this product. I won a gift pack with this in it and wowzers I am amazed.

One pump (from the bottle I have anyway) gives me about a pea sized amount, maybe less, so I use two pumps. I find it lathers better on a face brush thingy rather than in my hands. However, without the brush, the formula is so silky!! It glides onto the face smoothly and it makes my face feel so amazing while its on and when it's washed off.

The smell is really interesting. I've smelt anything quite like it, and now I'm glad I have because I love the smell of it!! Everything about this product blows me away, and I'm so glad that it's soap free because it makes my face feel so much more moisturized.

Have been using this for almost a year now and its only just starting to get low now. It is very gentle and doesnt dry your skin out. I need to use a makeup remover to completely remove makeup but have found my skin doesnt seem to get as many pimples since using this.

I purchased this as part of the Essano Rosehip Kit after hearing so many ladies rave about the range on here and reading about the benefits of rosehip oil.

I have oily, acne-prone skin so normally I tend to go for cleansers which specifically target these concerns, but I have previously used a more gentle cleanser and it worked really well with my skin so I wanted to give this a go.

I really liked the pump bottle it came in, it's my preferred style of packaging when it comes to cleansers as I find it allows you to disperse just the right amount of product without wastage.

Like the other products in the Essano Rosehip range, this has a lovely light rose fragrance, which is feminine but not overpowering, especially as I dislike a strong fragrance in skincare. The formula is a clear, gel-like liquid which is quite thin in consistency, similar to a lotion. I used a few pumps of this applied directly to my wet face, using either my hands or my exfoliating brush to cleanse my face.

I found that despite being a 'foaming' cleanser this didn't really seem to foam much for me at all, even with a few pumps. I also didn't feel like it really provided a thorough cleanse so preferred to use it at the end of the day after using a makeup remover and with the exfoliating brush to really give a proper cleanse.

This is a very gentle product and I liked that after using it my skin did feel clean and soft. I probably wouldn't purchase it myself again though as I felt it didn't really provide the clean my troubled skin really needs by itself and I would prefer something with a bit more punch to meet my skincare needs.

I have been using the essano body lotion and don't mind it's rose scent but this just smells wrong. It's got a hint of the fresh floral smell of the body lotion but it also has a more artificial smell, almost like a fruity nail polish remover or those nasty cheap scented nail polishes from back in the day. The packaging is nice enough, and will survive being dropped in the shower. The pump gives a good amount of product too. I suppose it does everything it says it will. It is gentle and foams up nicely but it won't cut through make up so I wash my face with almond oil to remove my make up first. All in all I using it up because I have it but I won't be repurchasing. I don't like to use something with such a bad and heavy smell on my face.

I have just repurchased this one as I liked my first bottle so much. I initially received a sample of it and have continued using it since last year.

I think what I like so much about this one is that it it's very gentle but still leaves my skin feeling clean. I find a lot of cleansers can leave my face feeling tight and dry afterwards, but I have not had any issues with this one. It has quite a thick gel consistency and lathers up nicely. The pump top bottle is handy for the shower althought the downside of that is that it's normally hard to get to the remaining product at the end of the bottle.

I wasn't sold on the scent initially. The first Essano product I tried was the body lotion (which smells amazing) and I was taken aback at first that they did not have the same fragrance. This one is a lot more delicate and unobtrusive though, and it has grown on me over time.

I have noticed on the odd forgetful occasion that it's not the best at removing heavy eye makeup. I normally use a separate product to remove it before I cleanse anyway, so this is not a dealbreaker for me.

Overall I feel like this is a great product and reasonably priced.

I really like this cleanser!

It comes in a pump bottle which I find super convenient – I hate having to unscrew bottles etc when doing my routine.

For a ‘natural’ product it smells delicious! I am not normally a fan of the ‘natural’ smelling products so this sweeter scent is a great change in my opinion. I honestly can’t stop smelling it as I wash my face.

My skin is sensitive dry-combination and I find this formula just right. It doesn’t strip my face of moisture, is gentle, but it does actually clean it well. I had no irritation at all.

It doesn’t fully remove my waterproof mascara, so I still have to remove that separately (not a biggie for me though).

A little goes a long way - I received 2 x 30ml samples in a subscription box and I have been using it for the longest time.

Easy and convenient to purchase, just from your local Countdown. The $13.99 price for 140mls is great considering how long it lasts!

I have very sensitive and dry skin, I am on my 3rd bottle of this product and it is the only thing that I will ever use again. It is so hydrating and makes my skin silky smooth. follow this with the moisturizer and it is the perfect match. My skin has never been clearer, and being in winter my skin is normally so dry but I have not had an issue this winter thanks to this amazing product.

I have very dehydrated skin at the moment and I bought this product in hope that it would hydrate my skin and provide my skin with extra moisture and nourishment . I have trialled this cleanser for about a month and it has done nothing for my skin , after cleansing my skin feels tight and stripped of any moisture it had, my skin also broke out a lot whilst using this product which was really strange. I tried to give this cleanser time to see if it would do what it says but I've ended up pushing it to the back of my cupboard and never using it .

I stumbled across this cleanser just recently as I hadn't seen it before - and due to my curious nature when it comes to cosmetics I had to buy it. I usually give my self a good week before making judgement on a product, and now three weeks in I am planning a trip to get some more.

I have found so many cleansers have dried my skin, left it feeling tight and irritated and this one has done the complete opposite. It feels like it is cleansing deep down in the pores and removes all makeup, including waterproof mascara. After a shower my skin feels moisturized and not tight at all.

And the big plus for me is that my skin blemishes have been disappearing one by one. Very happy :)
