Hydrated, Happy Skin Starts Here
Why a Rooibos Moisturiser Is Your Skin’s New Best Friend
If you've ever wondered whether a facial moisturiser is really that important, consider this: skipping your moisturiser is like making your morning Rooibos… and forgetting the Rooibos. Sure, your skin might get by without it, but it’s definitely not going to thrive.
At Annique Rooibos, we believe radiant, resilient skin should be within reach for everyone — whether you’re a skin care newbie or a seasoned serum-layering pro. So, let’s take a fresh look at why a Rooibos-infused moisturiser should be the first product in your cart — and why it might just change everything about the way you see your skin.
Let’s Talk Moisture: Why Your Skin’s Crying Out for It
Think of moisturiser as your skin’s daily drink of water — essential for:
- Hydration: It helps lock in moisture and prevent transepidermal water loss (yes, that’s a real thing).
- Smoothness: It reduces dry patches, flakiness, and tightness, especially in winter.
- Oil Balance: Even oily skin can become more oily if it’s dehydrated! A good moisturiser helps regulate sebum.
- Wrinkle Control: Well-hydrated skin ages more gracefully. Dry skin = fast-track to fine lines.
- Soothing Irritation: Moisturisers with Rooibos calm redness, sensitivity and flare-ups.
And here’s the kicker — if you’re skipping moisturiser because you think your skin doesn’t need it? It probably needs it the most.
Why Annique Moisturisers Are Different (and Better)
We’re not just another pretty tube or jar. For over 50 years, Annique has been leading the way in natural, science-backed skin care that actually works — proudly South African and proudly Rooibos-based.
Rooibos: Nature’s Red Gold
Every Annique moisturiser is infused with Rooibos extract, rich in antioxidants like aspalathin and nothofagin — natural powerhouses that fight free radicals, reduce inflammation, and keep skin calm and strong. Rooibos is also hypoallergenic, so even sensitive skin types can benefit.
Formulated for Every Skin Type
Whether your skin is dry as the Karoo, shiny like a boerewors braai, or somewhere in between — there’s a Rooibos moisturiser that’s made just for you:
- Lucid Moisturiser for Dry Skin: Rich and comforting. Great for parched, mature or sun-damaged skin. Leaves that oh-so recognisable natural Annique glow!
- Lucid Moisture Lotion: A lighter cream for dry skin.
- Sensitív Moisturiser: For dry delicate skin types that react to everything else. It soothes, softens and restores.
- Hydrafine Moisturiser: The multitasker for normal to combination skin. Balances oil, hydrates just right, and keeps skin calm.
- Face Facts Moisturiser: For oily or problem-prone skin. Lightweight and refreshingly effective.
- Rooibos Skin Moisturiser: Our all-rounder for normal skin — because "normal" still deserves something special.
Top Tip: Can we let you in on a little secret? It’s not just the moisturiser you use, but also HOW you apply it that can make a world of difference. We recommend pressing your moisturiser onto your skin, not rubbing. Excessive rubbing can stretch the skin, leading to fine lines and wrinkles faster. Here’s the pro way to apply your moisturiser: Take a pea sized amount, press and spread onto the palms of your hands, then gently (yes, gently!) press onto your face, starting with the dry cheeks, then forehead and the rest of your face. Don’t forget your neck! The neck area often reveals your age faster than your face.
