Sensitiv Soothing Moisturiser – 50ml

Calm, comfort and care — designed for skin that deserves extra gentleness.

When your skin reacts to the world around it — whether from harsh weather, environmental stress, or an inherent tendency to sensitivity — it needs a moisturiser that works with it, not against it. The Sensitiv Soothing Moisturiser is a rich, caring water-in-oil emulsion developed specifically for the needs of sensitive skin, with careful consideration for demanding climatic conditions.

At its heart are two powerful natural actives: Rooibos extract, celebrated for its anti-allergic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and macadamia nut oil, which is naturally rich in phytosterols to help ease itchiness, reduce tightness, and support the skin’s own recovery process. Together, they work to calm visible discomfort while helping to rebuild and reinforce the skin’s outer protective barrier.

This moisturiser is fragrance free and has been dermatologically tested, making it a trustworthy daily choice for anyone with reactive, dry, or allergy-prone skin.

Key Ingredients & Benefits

Rooibos Extract
A South African botanical prized in skincare for its natural anti-allergic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. In this moisturiser, Rooibos extract works to calm reactive skin, reduce redness-associated discomfort, and protect against environmental oxidative stress.

Macadamia Nut Oil
Naturally rich in phytosterols, macadamia nut oil closely mimics the skin’s own lipid structure, making it exceptionally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. It helps ease itchiness and feelings of tightness, while actively supporting the skin’s natural recovery process after exposure to irritants or harsh conditions.

Who It’s For

Sensitive Skin Types
If your skin flushes, tingles, or reacts easily to products, weather changes, or environmental factors, this moisturiser’s fragrance-free, dermatologically tested formula is built around your skin’s specific needs — calming irritation and strengthening the protective barrier.

Mature Skin
As skin matures, its natural lipid barrier thins and its ability to retain moisture decreases. The macadamia nut oil in this moisturiser replenishes those lipids, while the rich water-in-oil emulsion delivers sustained hydration that mature skin demands.

Dry and Allergy-Prone Skin
For those who struggle with persistent dryness or skin that reacts to allergens, the Rooibos extract provides anti-allergic and soothing support, while the overall formula helps restore comfort and resilience throughout the day.

How To Use

After cleansing and toning, apply your chosen serum suited to your skin type.
Press the moisturiser gently onto skin — do not rub. Use regularly throughout the day as needed.
During the day, the moisturiser may be applied directly over your foundation without disrupting makeup.
For an intensified moisture and suppleness boost, follow with Essense Skin Detox and Forever Young Revitalising Cream as the final step in your routine.

Pairs Well With

Liquid Skin Nutrition Spray – 100ml
Designed for the Sensitiv range and listed by Annique as an ideal companion to this moisturiser, the Liquid Skin Nutrition Spray delivers targeted nutrients directly to sensitive skin. Apply the spray before the Soothing Moisturiser to prepare and prime skin for maximum absorption and comfort.
Resque Rooibos and Hemp Body Crème – 250ml
Both products are formulated with soothing Rooibos extract to calm reactive and sensitive skin. Use the Resque Rooibos and Hemp Body Crème on the body while the Sensitiv Soothing Moisturiser addresses the face, creating a consistent, gentle care routine from head to toe.
Forever Young Revitalising Cream – 50ml
Annique recommends layering the Sensitiv Soothing Moisturiser with Forever Young Revitalising Cream for a higher degree of intense moisture and suppleness — ideal for mature or very dry sensitive skin that needs extra nourishment and firming support throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I wear this moisturiser under makeup?
A: Yes. The Sensitiv Soothing Moisturiser can be applied directly over your foundation during the day, so you can top up moisture and keep skin comfortable without needing to redo your makeup.

Q: Is this moisturiser suitable for skin that reacts to fragrances?
A: Absolutely. This formula is completely fragrance free and has been dermatologically tested, making it one of the safest daily moisturiser options for skin that is prone to reactions or irritation.

Q: How often should I apply it?
A: It can be pressed gently onto skin regularly throughout the day whenever your skin feels tight, uncomfortable, or in need of hydration — not just once in the morning.

Q: What makes this moisturiser different from a regular hydrating cream?
A: Its water-in-oil emulsion format and key actives — macadamia nut oil (rich in phytosterols) and Rooibos extract — are chosen specifically for sensitive skin. They help reduce itchiness and inflammation, rebuild the skin’s outer protective barrier, and deliver anti-allergic support that a standard moisturiser typically does not address.

Q: Can mature skin use this moisturiser?
A: Yes. It is recommended for both sensitive and mature skin types. For an even more intensive moisture result, it can be layered with Forever Young Revitalising Cream as a final step in your skincare routine.
