Really hydrating without being greasy

This is a good little moisturiser. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated without greasy and shiny. SPF would be a great added ingredient but otherwise it does the job. I do like that it sinks into my skin without just sitting on the top. It works quite well under makeup too. I love that there doesn’t seem to be any added fragrance. I will continue to use and would definitely recommend to anyone with oiler skin.

Essano Oil Control Moisturiser

I found this moisturiser really enjoyable to use. It really does what it says. Feels very hydrating on the skin, its very light weight - I wouldn't say it feels like a gel lotion as such but just a thinner more light weight moisturiser, it's not thick and doesn't feel heavy. Relaxing and refreshing to use, I have been using this after cleansing and toning without fail and I am really liking it. I will be rebuying, it is super affordable and a really great product at that. My face is feeling smoother (I am using the whole regime also). Personally I am still getting my standard oily T zone, slightly better but not miraculously better it is definitely still happening - I have been using it a week so fingers crossed it will continue to improve, but an otherwise great product and would recommend.

Tips: Use after Cleansing and toning, potentially a serum in between if your skin wants it. I use about one and a half pumps personally and that is enough for my face and neck and even a little on the back of my hands.

Light but does the job!

This was a fantastic moisturizer. I really enjoyed using it because it was nice and light and had a nice smell. I didn't have to worry about it taking ages to dry because it absorbed straight away. Not too heavy which I absolutely hate! Only a few pumps is needed with this product and your face is left feeling super silky smooth. I really enjoyed using it night and morning after using the cleanser and toner. Nice packaging and easy to use bottle. Great product that I will be absolutely buying again! I have noticed such a difference to my skin and the quality of it. I am thrilled with this product. Thanks so much Beauty Review!

Tips: Only need a few pumps to use :)

Beautiful moisturiser

Where to start with this fantastic moisturiser. It was lovely. I enjoyed the fact that it was a light weight consistency which didn’t leave my skin oily And it didn’t feel heavy or too thick on the skin. It again kept the shine away while also still being incredibly moisturising for my skin.

Tips: Use all three products the cleanser, toner and moisturiser in conjunction if you have an oily t-zone and you will have a winner.

Fave In The Range

The Essano Oil Control Oil-Free Moisturiser was probably my favourite product in the range.

It comes in a dainty pump and the packaging is coloured green unlike the other two products in the range which are pink with a green stripe.

The moisturizer is white and not too thick, but still creamy. It absorbs into the skin easily and is the most gentle of the three products on the skin.

It gave a little bit of a matte, shine-free finish. And was definitely light, not greasy, moisturizing and left the skin feeling smooth.

I would use this moisturizer again.

Tips: It's New Zealand made skincare, you should try it,

The BEST moisturiser

This moisturiser was the best final step in this system you could ask for. It was light, silky, and let my skin breathe all day.

After using the toner and having my skin feel quite dry, it was a relief to put this on top as the final step. It added so much moisture back into my skin, but still kept my oily t-zone at bay until late afternoon.

The smell was exactly what you'd expect from an Essano product - flowery but not overpowering. I found 3 pumps was enough to cover my face and neck without feeling like I'd either missed patches or had too much on.

This is one of the best products I have used for my oily skin. I'm not even halfway through the bottles and I've already purchased the system again because I dont want to run out!

Tips: Put this on as soon as you've applied the toner to help everything soak in better

essano Oil Control Oil-Free Moisturiser

I used this as the final step in my cleaning regime before bed and can honestly say I didnt like it. It felt very thick and heavy on my face and just made my face feeling very icky. A little went a long way with this product but I feel like if this is meant to be an oil free product it should probably feel alot lighter as is what I've found using different brands of oil free moisturizer.

Essano Oil Control Oil Free moisturiser

Comes in Essanos typical brown plastic, this one has a green label and a good pump applicator. One or 2 pumps does face and neck. I love it! Absorbs super fast with 0 sticky residue or shine. This white lotion is light and yet actually feels like it’s moisturising and softening and smoothing skin. I find a lot of oil free moisturisers make me look shiny and more oily than normal moisturiser as soon as I apply or they leave a weird almost tacky feeling like they coat the skin and don’t absorb and I’ve tried hundreds! I guess the true oil control test will be summer when my oil production increases but it seems to be helping right now. It has a light slightly sweet scent hard to describe maybe honey and freesias? But it just smells fresh and clean and isn’t overly intrusive. Will definitely buy!

Absolute game changer for under make up

This is a lovely lightweight moisturizer. I used it after cleanser and toning with the Essano Oil Control cleanser and toner and it stopped my chin being coated with oil by afternoon as it usually is everyday. Becuase of this, it helped my foundation stay nice all day rather than being affected by excess oil production.

The moisturizer is easy to use with a pump bottle, one pump dispenses the correct amount. It is light, mildly scented and applies easily to sink in fully. I used a serum underneath for a moisture boost at night, but the moisturizer alone was plenty for during the day.

I've struggled my whole adult life balancing acne control with needing gentle skincare as my skin is sensitive for harsh ingredients. I really rate this as the perfect combo of highly effective ingredients without harmful chemicals. I'll definitely be buying more when this runs out.

Tips: Use as a day cream for more stability for your foundation. Apply as serum underneath at night if needed.

Non-greasy, calming moisturiser

While I will probably go back to using my Drunk Elephant or Glamglow moisturisers, I was very impressed with this Essano moisturiser as more of a drug-store, affordable range skin care product. It was soothing and pleasant and didn’t leave my skin feeling greasy. Great for morning and night use and I could definitely feel that my skin had soaked it up overnight. The scent was light and pleasant and the packaging made it nice and easy to use. Would definitely recommend it as an affordable moisturiser option
