Annique Forever Young Crème de Nuit 50ml
A rich, upgraded anti-ageing night cream — nourishing, repairing and rejuvenating your skin with every night’s sleep.
What It Does
Night time is when the skin does its most important work. Free from the environmental stressors of the day, the skin’s natural repair and regeneration processes become most active during sleep — making the evening routine the most powerful opportunity to deliver the active ingredients that genuinely slow and reverse the visible signs of ageing.
The Annique Rooibos Forever Young Crème de Nuit is one of Annique’s best-selling skincare products, and it has just been upgraded. The well-loved original formula — built on VNA10+, Macadamia Nut Oil and Rooibos Extract — has been enhanced with two outstanding new actives: Bakuchiol at 0.5% and Squalane at 5%. These additions take an already effective anti-ageing night cream and make it significantly more powerful — adding collagen-boosting, skin-brightening and intensive hydrating benefits that work synergistically with the existing formula overnight.
Bakuchiol is a natural, plant-derived alternative to retinol — offering comparable anti-ageing and skin-renewing benefits without the irritation that retinol can sometimes cause. Squalane is a lightweight yet deeply hydrating active that mimics the skin’s own natural oils, restoring moisture, strengthening the skin barrier and leaving skin soft, plump and radiant by morning.
Experts recommend introducing an anti-ageing night cream from the mid-to-late 20s — when collagen production begins to decline — to help prevent premature wrinkles, maintain firmness and slow the visible signs of ageing from an early stage. Whether used as a preventative treatment or a restorative one, the Crème de Nuit delivers results that are visible, meaningful and long-lasting.
Key Ingredients & Benefits
Bakuchiol (NEW — 0.5%) A natural, plant-derived active extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea Corylifolia plant. Known as a bio-retinol, Bakuchiol delivers comparable anti-ageing benefits to retinol — boosting collagen production, improving skin firmness and elasticity, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and helping to fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation — without the irritation, dryness or sun sensitivity that retinol can sometimes cause. Suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin, and safe for use during pregnancy.
Squalane (NEW — 5%) A lightweight, fast-absorbing hydrating active naturally found in the skin — though its levels decline with age, contributing to dryness and loss of elasticity. Squalane mimics the skin’s own natural oils, delivering intense moisture without clogging pores. It strengthens the skin’s protective barrier, prevents moisture loss, shields against environmental damage and provides antioxidant protection — leaving skin soft, smooth and radiant by morning. Non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types including oily and acne-prone skin.
VNA10+ A biotechnological plant extract derived from the Mexican Skin Tree. This bioactive peptide is incorporated into the formula to enhance skin rejuvenation and combat the signs of ageing — supporting skin renewal and vitality, and promoting a more youthful-looking complexion with consistent overnight use.
Macadamia Nut Oil Rich in essential fatty acids that closely mimic the skin’s own natural oils. Macadamia Nut Oil nourishes and hydrates the skin deeply, helps maintain the skin barrier and leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and replenished overnight.
Rooibos Extract (Aspalathus Linearis) Annique’s signature ingredient. Rooibos adds powerful anti-ageing antioxidants that protect the skin from oxidative stress and free radical damage accumulated during the day, while its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties make the formula gentle and supportive for sensitive skin types.

Who It’s For
Ages 25–35 — Preventative support Experts recommend introducing an anti-ageing night cream from the mid-to-late 20s, when collagen production begins to decline. Used from this stage, the Crème de Nuit helps prevent premature wrinkles, maintain firmness and slow the early visible signs of ageing.
Ages 35+ — Restorative support For those already experiencing loss of firmness, visible fine lines or uneven skin tone, the upgraded formula — with Bakuchiol and Squalane — provides the active overnight repair and renewal support that mature skin needs.
Sensitive skin Fragrance-free and formulated with Bakuchiol rather than retinol, this night cream delivers powerful anti-ageing results without the irritation risk — making it suitable for even reactive and sensitive skin types.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Retinol and Bakuchiol? Retinol is a vitamin A derivative that boosts collagen, speeds up cell turnover and effectively reduces wrinkles — but can cause irritation and sun sensitivity in some individuals. Bakuchiol is a plant-based alternative that offers similar anti-ageing benefits at a milder, gentler rate, with significantly less risk of irritation. It is suitable for sensitive skin types and safe for use during pregnancy, making it an excellent option for those who cannot tolerate retinol.
Can I use the Crème de Nuit together with the Forever Young Retinol Night Treatment? Yes. The two products are designed to work in a complementary way. If you want to use both in the same routine, apply the Forever Young Retinol Night Treatment first after cleansing, wait 10 to 15 minutes for it to absorb, and then apply the Crème de Nuit. Bakuchiol may also help soothe any potential irritation caused by the retinol.
Why use the Crème de Nuit if I already use the Retinol Night Treatment? While both products offer anti-ageing benefits, they work through different mechanisms. The Retinol Night Treatment is a potent active treatment that stimulates cell turnover and enhances skin texture. The Crème de Nuit provides complementary collagen support through Bakuchiol, alongside deep hydration from Squalane and Macadamia Nut Oil — which also help counteract any dryness or sensitivity that retinol can sometimes cause. Used together, you get the best of both anti-ageing approaches.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin? Yes. The Crème de Nuit is fragrance-free and uses Bakuchiol rather than retinol — making it one of the most effective yet gentle anti-ageing night creams available for sensitive or reactive skin. Rooibos Extract further supports sensitive skin with its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties.
From what age should I start using an anti-ageing night cream? Annique recommends introducing an anti-ageing night cream from your mid-to-late 20s, when collagen production naturally begins to decline. Starting early helps prevent premature wrinkles, maintain skin firmness and slow the visible signs of ageing — making it easier to maintain a youthful, radiant complexion for longer.
Is this fragrance-free? Yes. The Crème de Nuit is completely fragrance-free, making it safe and comfortable for all skin types including sensitive and reactive skin.
