Our mission is to preserve your natural beauty through thoughtful, effective skincare, so that your skin shines not only today, but also in the future.

What is preventive skincare?
Preventative skincare is all about taking daily steps to protect your skin from harmful elements like pollution, UV rays, and aging. By giving your skin the right care every day, you can prevent premature signs of aging and damage, keeping your skin healthy and radiant for longer.


The Basics of Preventive Skincare

Preventative skincare is simple, but effective when done consistently. Here are the most important steps you can take to protect your skin preventatively, including practical examples that you can easily implement into your daily routine.

Daily hydration

Well-hydrated skin is more resistant to external aggressors, such as pollution and temperature fluctuations. Daily hydration also helps to strengthen and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. Whether you have oily, combination or dry skin, it is important for all skin types to stay hydrated.

Start your day with a glass of water to hydrate your body from the inside out. After cleansing your face, apply a moisturizing cream that is tailored to your skin type. If you have dry skin, choose a richer cream. For oily or combination skin, a lighter formula be nicer. Don't forget to also use a face wash in the evening after cleansing your face. night cream to apply.

Our face creams contain a carefully formulated blend of soothing ingredients such as Rooibos, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride and Shea Butter, which smooth your skin and leave it feeling silky soft. They are also enriched with humectants such as Glycerin and Sodium Hyaluronate, which attract and retain water, keeping your skin hydrated and resilient.

Also try to drink water regularly throughout the day, especially if you spend a lot of time in a dry or hot environment.

Sun protection

Sun protection is perhaps the most important step in preventive skincare. Using sunscreen daily not only protects your skin from sunburn, but also reduces the chance of pigment spots, fine lines and wrinkles.

Even on cloudy days, UV rays can damage your skin. Apply a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every morning after your moisturizer. This doesn’t have to be complicated; choose a lightweight sunscreen that absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a white cast. Remember to reapply sunscreen if you’re going to be outside for a long time, such as after your lunch break or during an afternoon walk. In a hurry in the morning? Choose a day cream that already contains a sun filter.

Nourishment from within

What you eat has a direct impact on the health and appearance of your skin. Foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries, nuts and green (rooibos) tea, help protect your skin from harmful free radicals that can cause damage.

Add colorful fruits and vegetables to your meals every day, such as blueberries, spinach, and tomatoes. These are full of antioxidants that help protect your skin. Also consider snacking on nuts like almonds or walnuts, as they are rich in healthy fats and vitamin E, which help maintain a healthy skin barrier.

Regular exercise and enough sleep

Exercise improves blood circulation, which gives you healthy, glowing skin. Getting enough sleep gives your skin a chance to repair itself and prevents signs of fatigue such as dark circles and a dull complexion.

Schedule at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day, whether it’s a walk in nature, a yoga session at home, or a quick workout. Additionally, try to maintain a consistent sleep schedule, with at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Make sure your bedroom is a calming environment, free of screens and with adequate ventilation.


Tips for an effective preventive skincare routine

  1. Start early

Don’t wait for the first signs of aging to appear; the sooner you start preventative skincare, the better.

In your 20s, focus on simple steps like cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection. As you get older, add products that address specific skin concerns, like an eye cream for fine lines or a face cream or serum with antioxidants.

  1. Use mild products

Choose products that respect and protect your skin's natural barrier. Avoid harsh ingredients that can irritate the skin.

For example, avoid facial cleansers that dry out or irritate your skin. Instead, use a gentle cleanser like our Rooibos Purifying Face Wash, which removes impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oils.

  1. Adjust your routine to the season

Your skin's needs change with the seasons, so adjust your skincare routine accordingly.

In the cold months you can switch to a richer cream to give your skin extra nourishment. Add a face mask to your nighttime routine for extra hydration. In the summer, switch to a lighter formula and pay extra attention to sun protection.

  1. Listen to your skin

Every skin is unique and can change over time. It is important to listen to your skin's signals and adjust your routine accordingly.

If you notice your skin has become more sensitive or red, switch to products with soothing ingredients. If your skin feels dry, consider adding a facial oil or a face mask to your routine for extra hydration.
