Ultra absorbant moisturiser

I have tried this moisturiser for 2 weeks now and I just loved it, my face is less oily than ever! It is lightweight, non greasy and ultra gentle.

Amazingly hydrating, beautifully shine free

I love this moisturiser! My skin feels instantly hydrated and soft, it doesn’t feel like it sits on my skin but actually sinks in. It has a beautiful matte finish without any shine, my skin tone is much nicer and balanced, redness on my cheeks has disappeared and a little goes a long way. I would definitely use it again. It smells lovely and sits well under makeup too.

Tips: Use as the final step after the Essano Oil Control Deep Pore Cleanser and Oil Control Balancing Toner. A beautiful 3 step regime leaving you with soft, shine free, clean skin.

Nice lightweight moisturiser

I got this in the vault after reading a lot of good reviews here. I have combination skin, which gets oilier in summer, and that combined with wearing a mask at work has lead to me breaking a lot more than I have in years. This moisturiser, along with several other products (some of which I will review also), has helped improve my skin a lot, and it's now much better.

It feels lightweight, but still hydrating. I think this is intended to be a daytime moisturiser, but I use it night. I find I don't need a moisuriser in the morning, because I use a couple of serums, and a hydrating sunscreen. So it would probably be too much to use a moisturiser as well, although this could change as the weather cools down.

Also, one of the serums I use is in the morning has 10% niacinamide, and my foundation also contains niacinamide (although probably a very small amount). So I don't want to overdo it with the niacinamide in case it causes irritation.

I have very oily sensitive skin and this moisturizer helps to keep my oil away, I haven't had any reactions due to my skin being sensitive it's amazing stuff.

Tips: Use with oil control cleanser and toner for the best results.

Essano oil control oil free moisturiser

This moisturiser is so good for oily skin. It’s the right thickness in my face and I definitely notice a difference in my skin as I’ve been using it for a few months now. By far one of the best oil free moisturisers. I recommend to anyone who struggles with oily skin to start using this product

A nice non oily alternative

I found this to be a really great basic moisturiser, not too rich and definitely more matte. I had no oil issues during the day with shininess.

While this is a great base for makeup as so smoothing, I probably would prefer something richer for winter. It is quite thin, and I found myself using a lot more than usual. It also has a nice clean smell to it.

Tips: I feel this is more of a summer holiday moisturiser!

Matt Free - YES PLEASE

An oil free moisturiser that actually hydrates?!! You've found it with this product. I'm all about that skincare life. I love trying new things that help me look my best self. I wear make up most days and because of my oily t-zone, at the end of the day my foundation looks like an oily mess. The past few days of using this face cream seemed to make my foundation last a lot longer than it usually does. So when this face creams claims to control sebum for a matt, shine-free finish all day....it does. My face was so incredibly soft after using this face cream - all only from using one pump as well. As I write this review I had previously put on the face cream about 9 hours ago, and my skin is still soft to the touch and I can also confirm my t-zone is not oily at all.

I would use this again!

Tips: One pump is enough for your whole face

Love the pump!

First off I love this pump bottle! I am so over moisturisers coming in pottles or tubes. Give me a hygienic, easy to dispense pump bottle anyday!

This is very light and a slightly weird texture compared to your usual lotion, but it is lovely to use and does absorb quickly with no residue.

It is immediately effective at mattifying skin, although that mattification (not a word!) didn't quite last all day for me. But it got me through the work day so that's the main thing.

I find it very hydrating and smoothing and it definitely doesn't clog pores - my t-zone is pretty much blackhead/clogged pore-free after 2 weeks of use.

The only reason this isn't a 5 star product for me is that it doesn't mattify all day, but other than that, I really enjoy it and would recommend!!

Oil Free Moisturiser

This moisturiser is very light and absorbs quickly into the skin. The smell is pleasant and fresh.

A great product for very oily to mildly oily skins, Niacinamide helps keep the shine from oily skin at bay. The lightweight formula keeps skin hydrated throughout the day. Skin is left feeling smooth and ready for applying makeup over the top.

The packaging allows for no mess application and pumps out just the right amount to moisturise your whole face and neck.

Proudly made in NZ is always a selling point for me and it's affordable for those on a budget.

Tips: Apply as the last step in your skincare routine. Start with cleanser and toner Oil Control Niacinamide Range. Apply a single pump direct into your palm and evenly distribute all over face and neck, avoiding eye area. Go as you are with shine free skin or Apply your makeup look over top.

For best results use morning and evening.

Best for oily skins.
