essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser

Nothing special. Didn’t help clear my skin, it was irritating & I disliked the smell. This may work for you, everyone’s skin is different.

I picked this deep pore cleanser from the beauty vault. I ran out of my current. I have glo lab products too that I’m using with this.

Packaging bright and noticeable . Consistency is like a clear light gel . Feels smooth on my skin lathers up well .

Overall this cleanser cleaned my skin well . Nothing astounding here . Good for a basic skincare start. I started my daughter and son off at age 11 for skincare.

I reviewed the essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser at the same time as the essano Oil Control Balancing Toner and the essano Oil Control Oil-Free Moisturiser. The cleanser was nice to apply, lathered up easily, and had a pleasant scent. It made my skin feel quite clean and not too dry. Comes in a pump bottle, which made for easy use, and a little bit went a long way.

It is hard to review the product in isolation, but overall the three products made my skin feel quite dry initially (though the cleanser didn't), and oily overall and had a few breakouts during using it. I read somewhere that it can take over a month to "train" your skin to be less oily with these products, so I will give them more time.

I trialed the Essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser. The cleanser comes in a plastic pump bottle. I was a bit disappointed that the bottle is plastic. I'd much prefer it to be glass so the impact on the environment is less. The cleanser is clear and thick and does have quite a strong smell. It lathers nicely and feels nice on your skin. My skin felt clean after using it. I used the cleanser morning and night and I can't say I found a huge difference in the oil control of my skin, and T-Zone in particular. The cleanser was fine and did the job of cleaning my skin, but it wasn't anything special and I wasn't wowed by the results. I'll finish the bottle and I'd use it again if gifted but I probably wouldn't go out and buy it myself.

I recieved this item to review with the toner and moisteriser and I’ve quite liked the cleanser. It’s a nice consistency and I really like the pump bottle it makes it a lot easier to not be using too much. It only foams up a little bit it gets in around my nose and cleans the parts that get quite oily. It’s rinses off nice and easy and makes my skin feel nice and clean. I found using it every day made my skin feel too dry but every second day was a lot more gentle on my face. Used in conjunction with the toner and moisteriser it’s really nice and keeps the oil at bay but I’ve found it too hard on my skin to use every day. Every second to third would be better.

Ok right off the bat, the smell is not for me. My friend and I agree that it smells like window cleaner! But my flatmate says it reminds her of something like clean and clear from back in the day. Scent aside, I don't find it too drying which is good. My skin is a little bit dryer this time of year so I definitely need to follow up with a moisturiser regardless of which cleanser I use. A bit too soon to tell if it's made a lasting improvement in my skin, but my T Zone has been less oily and I've only had minimal breakouts (though I think my birth control is to blame for the current pimples!) If you can get past the scent, I would recommend trying it out. Especially since it's a kiwi brand!

This cleanser is good. It removes dirt and makeup without stripping my skin of essential moisture which is important for oily skin. It managed to break down my heavy foundation quite well too.

I felt like my pores appeared smaller and less clogged with about a weeks usage so would be keen to see how it continues to perform over time. Would use it again for sure.

This is a great cleanser- it foams well, it cleanses well and it left my skin feeling really nice and clean after a day with a full face of make up. It didn't irritate my sensitive skin and the smell is quite pleasant- almost masculine smelling so my hubby was happy to use it too! Big positive is this being cruelty free, I'm trying to make more ethical purchases so this is great! Downside would be the packaging- I find it annoying when I can't see how much product is left.

I enjoyed using this product. Had a lovely consistency and fragrance. The pump mechanism was great and took makeup off well and left skin feeling clean and smooth. Would use again
