essano Hydrating Rosehip Gel Foaming Cleanser

First of all the gentle smell of roses is absolutely divine. i love it! This stuff goes for miles. A full pump of this would probably do your entire body. i have very dry skin so Not only is it soap free (which means it won’t dry out my skin) but also contains Aloe Vera to help hydrate your skin while you cleanse it! its amazing.

I have to say I am a huge fan of anything with Rosehip in it, so I love this cleanser! The smell is delicious, the formula is really nice, and overall it does a good job! A little goes a long way with this, and my bottle has lasted ages, I also love the pump, so easy to get out when in the shower.

Only one quarm would be that sometimes I feel like it doesn't remove everything from my face, but nothing that another quick cleanse doesn't fix.

I am hard to sway from my standard skincare routine, & really, I need an exfoliator. This is the only reason I would not buy again. It smells amazing, the whole series is awesome, the night cream is my favourite, but as they don't offer an exfoliating cleanser, it's not something I would buy again. If you have dry or sensitive skin though, then I would definitely recommend this,

...so I had to try this cleanser. It comes with a pump and comes out in a gel form which turns into a creamy-foam with water like most cleansers do, just a bit creamier. It smells amazing, but I can't really describe the scent.

I need at least 2-3 pumps to cleanse my face and I use it twice as I don't feel it would do a very good job of removing my make-up.

It smells delicious though and I really like its consistency and how it doesn't dry out my skin. It's nothing special for me though, so once I used it up I won't be repurchasing this.

I love this! Bought the tester pack from countdown after deciding Cetaphil wasn't for me, and have been using it for two weeks. I've noticed my skin is firmer and my pores are smaller, and my blemishes on my chin and cheeks (which are usually out of control) have gotten much smaller. Would definitely recommend, great for a supermarket brand!

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.
