I haven’t really used retinol before using this product which I found instantly brighten my skin and smoothed fine lines. It transformed my skin making it dewy and younger looking after the applied it. Lovely to use under my moisturiser.

I absolutely love this. I have dry skin so I love the texture of this because it’s like an oil on the slightly thicker side. I love how this is a natural ‘retinol’ so I can use this in the mornings and not be worried about irritation and sun sensitivity. This helps moisturise my dry skin in the morning before I follow up with an actual moisturiser and spf. I love this product a lot and a little goes a long way! I’ve used this everyday for about the last 6 months and still have more than half the bottle left! I don’t have a lot of fine lines and wrinkles so can’t say if this helps with those areas, but as a moisturising agent, I love this and think it works great with dry skin.
My third product l have been using in the Essano range , It's great it can be used during day and at night I have been doing massage to areas of my face every day night and day , l use this its very smooth and goes into my skin very easily The other l use in the range is collagen boost night cream and advanced brightening vitamin C serum ,
Being an alternative to regular retinol it doesn’t upset my skin. However it doesn’t soak in and even when applying moisturiser up to five minutes later, the moisturiser doesn’t rub in easily. This is despite only using a couple of drops of the product.
This is an awesome product and delivers! The natural retinol in this product prevents from side effects usually caused by retinop such as acne and flaking. Value for money and it works!
Tips: Apply moisturizer after 20 minutes to lock in the retinol
I’ve heard that retinol is one of the only scientifically proven skincare ingredients you can get so I was keen to try it. I came across this Essano one which is actually a natural retinol from something called Bukuchiol. I tried it morning and night for a couple of weeks but realised the instructions say not to use it in the morning (fail!). Anyhow about 4 drops at night was enough. The serum really does feel like an oil, not light like I was expecting - I guess that’s the rosehip oil component in it. Because of this I didn’t really like the scent which reminded me of a previous rosehip purchase I didn’t enjoy. It feels a little oily on my skin so I wait 15 minutes or for it to sink in before I apply my night cream. I’ve got pretty strong combination skin so didn’t really feel any sensitivity whilst using this like I might do with an AHA but it was a little oily for me. After using for a while I’m not sure whether it’s done much but I do see I’m less clogged up on my nose and my tone has evened out. Using this had made me decide to try a more chemical retinol next and if you are sensitive this one might be a nice alternative.
Tips: If you want to try it as a primer it’s really nice under a BB cream.
Received in Xmas BBBE 21'. Have been using for a couple of weeks now. Results for me so far have been: my skin tone looks even and really beautiful. Skin is soft and looks brighter, from within. I feel like my skin looks like younger me. Wonderful product with wonderful results.
Huge fan, keen to repurchase when I finish this up.
Big fan of Essano products, which is why I was so delighted to find this in my Christmas BBBE. After having used this pretty regularly at night for a couple of months (it’s only running out now!) I’ve noticed the fine lines on my forehead are… gone? I’m turning 28 soon so there probably wasn’t much to start with. In any case, I’m chuffed with that result. The other wrinkles/lines on my face were developing under and in the outter corners of my eyes. Those ones haven’t really diminished heaps, but they haven’t got worse either. I’m not sure if I will purchase again for a while as the lines/wrinkles aren’t very concerning to me. I will, however, continue using other Essano products as I always find them helpful and useful.
I was recommended this to help with my stress breakouts and it really helped ! Reduced redness and helped heal my problem areas, loved using this after a shower. I haven’t got any wrinkles yet but we all know that looking after and treating our skin Is the best tactic.
Tips: Remember the best treatment for future skin is to look after it now
Nice product, I was looking for a retinol alternative that wasn’t super expensive. I’d been using another brand, but was finding it expensive to keep buying and wanted to try something else. I really like this, it smells great with a nice texture. I’m turning 30 this year, so I’ve been wanting to add active products to my routine, I’ve noticed my skin is less red, and my active breakouts clear more quickly and don’t get as inflamed. Overall would continue to purchase as it’s a great price and seems to be effective so far.
Tips: A little goes a long way. I like to let mine soak in, and then apply moisturiser over the top to seal it in
