 This serum is ideal for the treatment of oily, sensitive, ageing and even acne-prone skin. Apply it just before your organic moisturiser because that’s where the magic happens. The key ingredient, hyaluronic acid, ensures that all the nutrients are better absorbed so they penetrate and deeply nourish your skin. And what a collection of actives to be absorbed! Developed using the very best African extracts like kigelia, rooibos and aloe, this truly is a one of a kind skincare formula.  

Our strict ingredient policy means that you can always shop according to your values. Every item on FtN is checked to be better for the environment, socially responsible, good for you and free from toxic ingredients.

A great addition to the sensitive range I've been using for restoring my skin tone and repairing the texture. It feels great on the skin and is slowly but definitely bringing back the glow.

I absolutely love ESSE, I have been struggling with my skin (mostly stress and hormonal) for about 4 years now and i can honestly say that it has just calmed my skin down so much. I use this serum at night only and when i wake up in the morning my skin looks plump. I have only been using this specific serum for about 2-3 weeks BUT it has already made a difference.

Great serum. Very hydrating and refreshing on my skin. The dryness in my skin has definitely improved.

I used Esse products long ago and it was amazing. Excited that I started using it again.

It feels alive on my skin. I see a difference after a weeks use.

Too rich for my everyday use but I love it after having used the cocoa scrub. Be sparing - I feel sticky when using too much.

This is the first serum I have ever used so my review might not be that helpful. However, I use this serum after I tone and I have noticed a Difference in the brightness of my skin. It soaks in very quickly as well. A little goes a long way.

This brand is always pricey, but makes up for it in quality
10/09/2018, By Este-mari
I don’t see a noticible difference, but it does feel good on my skin. Just a bit pricy!
12/07/2018, By Jane
Hydrating and refreshing. A little goes a long way.
07/07/2018, By Carmen
Way too expensive for such a small bottle! Did not see any difference while using it. Love the other products, but wont recommend this one.
04/06/2018, By Natalie
It goes on very light. you have to apply your moisturiser on top. It really helps the skin fully absorb your moisturiser. I apply at night and my skin feels wonderfully soft and hydrated the next morning.

Nutrient dense, so far so good!

I've tried a few Esse products and even though some products are great, I find most to be overhyped and overpriced. I don't mean to trash the brand..The cocoa scrub, cream mask and body oil are great but this serum is not. It didn't make my skin any worse but also didn't make it any better. I'd give this a miss.

I've used the serum for about a week now, I love Esse products, but honestly can't say I noticed any difference using the serum.

I suspect that the slippery properties of the serum might be inhibiting absorption of the moisturiser put on top of it. Usually when I use just the moisturiser, if I rinse my face 12-24hrs later there's no residue to wash off because the skin absorbs the cream fully during the night, but with the serum it seems most of it washes off.

This is the first time that I have used the Esse serum and I am very impressed. It definitely reduces fine lines!
07/09/2017, By Hayley
Have fallen in love with this serum (not to mention the whole Esse range!)
20/06/2017, By Liesl
the serum is a miracle cream. it absorbs immediately and makes the skin feel elastic and moist. it still feels good the next day
29/05/2017, By raeesa
Good product. However I feel that I got very similar results from other serums that are a lot cheaper.
02/12/2016, By Jan
Could see the difference after using for two nights. Decided to only use Esse products from now on. The light moisturiser is my favourate of the Esse range and works well with this, no more blocked pores etc. Like the idea that is South African as well, always support local first.
24/09/2016, By Karin
I really enjoy this, skin feels great in the morning.
27/07/2016, By Esmé
This product is nice and light and absorbs easily. It is perfect for summertime on my dry skin. However, for winter I do not find it moisturising enough.
26/01/2016, By ashleigh
This product is effective. However i dropped mine and the bottle is glass and it broke. Thats my own fault but the glass is very thin.
22/06/2015, By Yvette
The product has a typical serum consistency that can feel a bit clammy, but the soft vanilla smell is wonderful and I can feel the difference in my skin!
