Annique Hydrafine Moisturiser – 50ml

Perfect hydration, balanced skin and a refined complexion — all day, every day.

What It Does

The Annique Hydrafine Moisturiser is a carefully formulated daily moisturiser designed to solve one of the most common skincare challenges — finding a product that genuinely works for both normal and combination skin simultaneously. Normal skin needs consistent hydration and protection without overloading it. Combination skin needs oil control in the T-zone while still nourishing drier areas on the cheeks — a balancing act that most moisturisers fail to achieve.

Hydrafine solves this with a sophisticated blend of five key active ingredients — each targeting a specific aspect of skin balance. Green Rooibos provides antioxidant and soothing protection. Marinematt controls excess sebum and refines shine. Niacinamide minimises pores and improves skin tone. Vitamin B5 draws moisture in and repairs the skin barrier. Allantoin soothes irritation and promotes healthy cell renewal.

The result is a lightweight, non-greasy formula that absorbs quickly, hydrates meaningfully and leaves skin feeling smooth, calm and balanced from morning to evening — without the tightness of dryness or the shine of excess oil. Completely fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, it is gentle enough for sensitive skin and effective enough to make a visible daily difference.

Backed by more than five decades of Annique Rooibos skincare experience, Hydrafine delivers the perfect moisture balance for normal and combination skin — every single day.

Key Ingredients & Benefits

Green Rooibos Extract
A potent natural antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental stressors, reduce inflammation and calm irritation. Particularly effective for soothing the sensitive or stressed areas common in combination skin while providing broad antioxidant protection across the entire complexion. Annique’s unfermented Green Rooibos contains significantly higher antioxidant levels than regular Rooibos — making it a particularly powerful daily skin protector.

Marinematt
Derived from marine algae, Marinematt is a specialised oil-controlling active that reduces excess sebum, refines skin texture and delivers a natural matte finish — without stripping the skin of essential moisture. Particularly effective at targeting the T-zone where oil production is most active, while leaving normal and drier areas comfortably hydrated.

Niacinamide
One of the most well-researched and multi-functional skincare ingredients available. Niacinamide improves skin tone, reduces the appearance of enlarged pores, strengthens the skin barrier, regulates sebum production, reduces redness and fades dark spots. It works simultaneously in oily zones — balancing oil production — and in drier areas — strengthening the moisture barrier. An exceptional daily active for combination skin in particular.

Vitamin B5 (Panthenol)
Draws moisture into the skin and helps repair the skin barrier. Improves skin softness, elasticity and accelerates healing. Its soothing and hydrating properties are gentle enough for drier patches while light enough not to overload oilier areas — making it an ideal balancing ingredient for combination skin.

Allantoin
A calming and protective ingredient that promotes skin cell regeneration, soothes irritation and improves overall skin texture. Non-comedogenic and lightweight, Allantoin supports healthy cell turnover and healing without sensitising or congesting the skin — ideal for daily use on normal and combination skin types.

Who It’s For

Normal skin
Provides gentle, balanced daily hydration and antioxidant protection — maintaining the health and radiance of skin that is already in good condition without overloading it.

Combination skin
The Marinematt and Niacinamide combination specifically targets the challenges of combination skin — controlling oil and shine in the T-zone while maintaining hydration in normal and drier areas simultaneously.

Those wanting a lightweight daily moisturiser
Fast-absorbing and non-greasy — ideal for anyone who finds traditional moisturisers too heavy, too rich or too congesting for daily use.

Fragrance-sensitive skin
Completely fragrance-free — making it gentler on skin and ideal for those who react to fragranced skincare products.

Those concerned about pores and skin texture
Niacinamide is clinically proven to minimise the appearance of enlarged pores and improve overall skin tone — a meaningful daily benefit for anyone concerned about visible pores or uneven texture.

Anyone focused on prevention and daily skin health
Daily moisturising with antioxidants, Niacinamide and Vitamin B5 protects against premature ageing, environmental damage and the early signs of skin deterioration — an essential daily investment in long-term skin health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Hydrafine Moisturiser suitable for all skin types? Hydrafine is specifically formulated for normal to combination skin. It provides hydration without heaviness and helps control oil in the T-zone. Those with dry or very dry skin should use the Annique Lucid moisturisers. Those with very oily or problem-prone skin may find the Annique Face Facts Moisturiser more suitable.

Will it make my skin oily or shiny? No. Marinematt — a natural oil-absorbing marine extract — helps control shine and mattify the skin, particularly in oil-prone areas like the forehead and nose, without stripping moisture from the rest of the face.

Will it clog my pores? No. The formula is non-comedogenic and lightweight — hydrating the skin without blocking pores. This makes it ideal for combination skin that is prone to congestion in the T-zone.

Can I use this under makeup? Yes. The lightweight, fast-absorbing, non-greasy formula is designed to sit comfortably under makeup — providing a smooth, balanced base for foundation application.

Why is it fragrance-free? Fragrance is one of the most common causes of skin sensitivity and irritation in skincare products. By formulating Hydrafine completely fragrance-free, it is gentler on the skin and suitable for those who are sensitive or reactive to fragranced products.

What is Niacinamide and why is it important? Niacinamide — also known as Vitamin B3 — is one of the most well-researched skincare ingredients available. It minimises pores, improves skin tone, reduces redness, fades dark spots, strengthens the skin barrier and regulates sebum production. It is particularly effective for combination skin because it works simultaneously on oily and drier areas — balancing the complexion as a whole.

How is this different from the Hydrafine Night Cream? The Hydrafine Moisturiser is a lightweight daytime formula focused on hydration, oil control, pore refinement and daily protection — designed to be worn under sunscreen and makeup. The Hydrafine Night Cream is a richer overnight formula focused on deep moisture restoration and skin repair — designed to support the skin’s natural overnight renewal cycle.
