Essano Gentle Foaming Cleanser

I got the treat your skin pack on special for $20.00 from Countdown which included cleanser, rosehip oil, moisturiser, body lotion & night cream. Perfect sizes for holiday travel, not to mention you can try these before deciding on the full-size versions. I wet my face first, applied a small amount of cleanser, avoiding my eyes, which are sensitive. I used my Nivea deep cleansing facial kit which comes free from Farmers when you spend $25.00 or more on Nivea products. Its got 2 brush & 2 foam attachments, I used the soft brush attachment to get the cleanser into my skin. Anyway, it left my skin feeling clean & also soft & smooth & I would definitely recommend this cleanser.

Tips: Just use a small amount, mix with warm water & your away!

Just pretty average

I decided to try a new range and thought the Essano sounded like it would be just the kind of cleanser I needed. I wanted something natural, and I've heard such incredible things about Rosehip. The pump bottle is fantastic for dispensing, however it can be a bit of a nuisance when you get to the end of the bottle and want to get the last of the product out. I liked how gentle the cleanser was on my skin, and it didn't leave my skin feeling dry and tight like some others can. The downside though was it didn't remove all my makeup, I found I needed to cleanse a couple of times on the full-face makeup days. And I'm not sure 'foaming' should be in the product description - I didn't ever really get a foam from it at all.

Overall a fairly nice product, but pretty middle of the range in my opinion

Tips: If you're wearing makeup, wash your face twice to ensure you've removed it all.

Smells Delicious

This product cleansed my skin without drying it. Got all my makeup from around my eyes off too and it also smells yummy :)

Heaven in a pink bottle.

This is by farrrrrrr my favorite supermarket cleanser ! As soon as I saw "organic" and "rose hip" I was instantly sold, it is a pleasant smelling, beautiful textured cleanser that leaves your skin so soft and clean. I prefer not to mix it with water, I wet my face and use the cleanser to remove make up and cleanse my face, also great for double cleansing as it does not dehydrate your skin. The cleanser goes well with its little friends, the gentle moisturizer and night creme . Ahhhh I adore this range.

Tips: Instead of bringing the cleanser to a foam with water, dampen your face and use straight from the bottle onto your face.

Didn't remove my makeup

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.

Okay but not great

Like many others here I bought the pack of miniatures to try out this range of products. I was keen because this cleanser is free of parabens and claims to be made in NZ from organic ingredients. I was impressed enough after using up the sample to buy a full size product and have been using it for about three months now. On the plus side, this is an inexpensive, easily bought product, just pop it in with the weekly shop. It is in a handy pump package which dispenses just the right amount for cleansing the face and neck. I have found it to be lightly fragranced and easy to use. It makes a nice foam which spreads well. It rinses off easily and skin feels nice and clean after use. On the other hand I am finding that my skin feels a bit dry and tight after using this cleanser and I am in a hurry to put on my serum and moisturiser. Eye make up is not totally removed by this product either, but it is a bit much to expect from any cleanser! Previously I had been using a trilogy cream cleanser and changed mostly because of the fabulous expense - I will be going back to that product, but will continue to buy this for my teenaged daughters who are finding this cleanser great for their oilier skin.

Lovely Cleanser

I got this, like many of you, in the travel size pack about 2 months ago. Overall I really love it. My skin is slightly oily and this has been good for that, I have had far less breakouts since using the range. I usually remove make up with a wipe first, then wash my face with this, followed by the night cream and so far so good! Will be buying it in the full size :)

Not drying

I purchased this in the pack of miniatures this brand sells to try out this range of products and see whether I wanted to purchase full sizes of any of them. As a lover of rosehip oil as a moisturiser this range really appealed to me.

I love that this comes in a pump bottle as I find this the quickest and cleanest way to use most beauty/skincare products. The cleanser looks like a gel when it is dispensed and when massaged into the skin turns into a light foam (it doesn't foam as much as a standard cleanser and to me is somewhere in between a cream cleanser and really foamy soap like cleanser). I like the light scent that this product has and have found it nice and gentle on my dry sensitive skin. Despite its gentleness I feel it cleanses my face well and doesn't leave my skin feeling dry and tight. I think this is a great cleanser for those who want something gentle and effective, but, probably not the best for those with more blemished skin who need a stronger (salicylic acid (or similar) containing) cleanser.

I think this is great value for money and I will enjoy using it when my skin isn't so prone to breakouts.

Tips: Purchase the miniature pack and try this in the small size before purchasing the full size to see if this is right for you :)

Not my favourite

I liked the fact that this cleanser was more natural and didn't contain nasty chemicals but I'm not a huge fan of foaming cleansers. I much prefer cream cleansers and felt like I needed quite a bit of cleanser to actually clean my face. It has a light fragrance, which is pleasant but it left my face feeling a little dry. I really like some of the other Essano products but probably wouldn't use this one again.
