Liquid Skin Nutrition is your skin’s best friend. This multivitamin enriched spray regenerates skin, and nourishes all skin types. Its main active ingredients are Green Rooibos extract, multivitamin complex and ActiveSent. Here is a handy guide on how these ingredients soothe a number of skin conditions.

Sunburn

Spray it daily on your face, neck, shoulders, hands and arms to revitalise, nourish and protect skin. Use up to once an hour in case of sunburn.

“My daughter went to a dam with her friends and their faces and shoulders were severely sunburnt. I gave them all Essense Liquid Skin Nutrition to spray on and by the next day that burning sensation and the extreme redness was much better. I totally love this product; an absolute winner.” – Susan Hayward

Skin allergies

Liquid Skin Nutrition contains Green Rooibos extract, which is known to have anti-viral, anti-fungal, and antibacterial properties, making it perfect for those with sensitive skin conditions, especially rashes and chafing.

Use as often as needed throughout the day on the affected areas

Dryness

Liquid Skin Nutrition contains a multivitamin complex. This is a well-balanced composition of various vitamins that offers nourishment and moisturisation to the skin while energising and activating the cells

Acne

The ingredient ActiveScent in Liquid Skin Nutrition inhibits the development of targeted microorganisms, which cause acne.

ActiveScent helps to purify skin and promotes a healthy skin.

Perfectly Matched: Find Your Perfect Annique Foundation

by Rooibos | Apr 10, 2018 | Colour Caress, Sun protection

It’s important to take care of your skin, not only after you’ve taken off your foundation and make-up, but before you apply all of it as well.

When you say the word ‘foundation’ to a make-up enthusiast, they’ll tell you it’s what they use to cover their imperfections and even out the skin-tone on their face. But it is so much more than that. It’s part of a routine wherein they empower themselves and instil a sense of confidence and self-assurance that help them tackle the world head-on.

It’s important to take care of your skin, not only after you’ve taken off your foundation and make-up, but before you apply all of it as well. Prepping your skin before applying your foundation also holds its own benefits, including a clean, easy to- work on canvas, which will promote lasting stay of any make-up you apply.

Preparing Your Face for Annique’s Foundation
Rinse your skin with Rooibos-infused water, then pat dry. Apply the Annique serum best suited to your skin. Use the following products: Skin Detox, Liquid Skin Nutrition, Miracle Tissue Oil, your eye product of choice, the moisturiser most suited to your skin type, Q10 Therapy, a Freshener, and a sunscreen. Wait a minute or two for the products you’ve applied to settle.

Different Ways to Apply Your Annique Foundation
Fingers
Wash your hands before you start. When applying foundation with your fingers, you should never put more foundation than the size of a 10 cent on the back of your hand. Place bits of foundation onto your forehead, cheeks, chin and nose with your ring and middle finger. Spread out your foundation before you gently and with light fingers, blend your foundation until you have even coverage.

Foundation brush
Make sure your hands and brushes are clean before you start. Believe it or not, you only need half what you use when you apply it with your fingers, about the size of a pea. A brush is most effective to cover a greater area of skin when using a small amount of foundation. For the most effective application with a foundation brush, you’ll get the best results with a clean, flat brush, preferably with synthetic fibres. You’ll put the initial foundation on the back of your hand and use the brush to place it on your forehead, cheeks, chin and nose. Start in the middle of your face and work outwards with downward strokes.

Latex wedge/Make-up wedge
The great thing about applying foundation with a wedge is that it can get into all the nooks and crannies we would otherwise struggle with or miss. Start with a clean wedge and use the foundation you have on the back of your hand. Work the wedge and foundation from the centre of your face outwards. Don’t forget about your nose and to blend the foundation out towards your ears and neck.

Two kinds of UV rays

by Rooibos | Oct 3, 2017 | Sun protection

Summer is officially here and with it comes lots of time spent outside doing fun family activities. But with summer fun and games comes something we should all be aware of and take precaution against – the sun and the damage it can do to your skin.

Rooibos to the rescue

It has been proven time and time again to have cancer-fighting properties, so why would you ignore something that could end up saving your life? Thorough research has indicated that Rooibos inhibits the growth of cancer, and protecting yourself against it from the inside and out is the least you can do for your own health.

What exactly is skin cancer?

The Skin Cancer Foundation describes it as ‘the uncontrolled growth of abnormal skin cells. It occurs when unrepaired DNA damage to skin cells (most often caused by ultraviolet radiation from sunshine or tanning beds) triggers mutations, or genetic defects, that lead the skin cells to multiply rapidly and form malignant tumors.’

There are two kinds of UV rays that damage the skin and lead to skin cancer

UVB rays cause the every-day sunburn we encounter so regularly. These rays are shorter, penetrate only through the epidermis, and cause sunburn and cancerous changes.

UVA rays are longer and penetrate the skin on a deeper level. This kind of ray travels through glass and damages collagen, which speeds up the ageing process.

At Annique we have developed sun-care products with ingredients that help protect you and your family against both sunburn and ageing caused by UVB and UVA rays.
