Annique Lucid Moisturiser Dry Skin – 50ml

Annique’s No.1 moisturiser — deep, lasting hydration for dry, dehydrated and mature skin.

What It Does

Dry and dehydrated skin needs more than a surface fix. Factors like South Africa’s harsh climate — from the intense dry heat of the interior to the biting cold of winter — strip moisture from the skin faster than most moisturisers can replace it. The Annique Rooibos Lucid Moisturiser Dry Skin was developed with exactly these conditions in mind.

This is Annique’s best-selling product, and for good reason. Its unique consistency delivers a deep moisturising action that penetrates beyond the surface, raising the skin’s moisture levels and restoring a genuine sense of suppleness and comfort. It soothes on contact, works immediately and continues to support the skin’s moisture barrier throughout the day.

Formulated with Shea Butter, Macadamia Nut Oil, Green Rooibos Extract, AquaVital+ and Pre- and Probiotics, it nourishes, protects and supports the skin’s natural balance — leaving skin visibly more radiant, soft and comfortable with regular use.

Key Ingredients & Benefits

Shea Butter A deeply nourishing and emollient ingredient that softens and conditions dry skin. Shea Butter creates a protective layer that helps lock in moisture and prevent water loss, making it especially effective for very dry or mature skin.

Macadamia Nut Oil Rich in fatty acids that closely mimic the skin’s own natural oils. Macadamia Nut Oil absorbs easily and helps restore suppleness and smoothness to dry, tight or dehydrated skin.

Green Rooibos Extract (Aspalathus Linearis) Annique’s signature ingredient, rich in antioxidants and valued for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. Green Rooibos helps calm irritation, protect against environmental stress and support overall skin health and comfort.

AquaVital+ A specialist hydrating active that supports the skin’s ability to attract and retain moisture. AquaVital+ helps deliver the immediate and sustained hydration that dry and dehydrated skin needs throughout the day.

Pre- and Probiotics Support the skin’s natural microbiome — the healthy balance of microorganisms that play an important role in maintaining the skin barrier. A balanced microbiome helps the skin defend itself against dryness, sensitivity and environmental damage.

What It Improves

• Skin moisture levels and hydration
• Skin suppleness and softness
• Skin radiance and complexion
• Dryness, tightness and discomfort
• Skin barrier strength and resilience

Who It’s For

Dry and dehydrated skin The primary target for this formula — designed to deliver deep, lasting moisture to skin that struggles to retain adequate hydration.

Mature skin As skin ages it produces less natural oil and loses moisture more rapidly. This formula supports mature skin’s need for richer, more intensive hydration.

Sensitive skin The inclusion of Rooibos and gentle, skin-supportive actives makes this suitable for sensitive skin that needs effective moisture without irritation.

People in dry or cold climates Specifically developed with South Africa’s challenging climatic conditions in mind — ideal for those in dry inland regions or areas that experience extreme cold.
