The skin does not work the same way at night as it does during the day. By day it is in defence mode — managing UV exposure, environmental stress, and oxidative damage. By night it shifts into repair — rebuilding, regenerating, and restoring what the day has depleted. Most skincare routines ignore this distinction entirely. This duo is built around it.
The Vitamin C Face Serum — cold-pressed Rosehip, Marula, and Argan — delivers whole-plant Vitamin C and antioxidant protection in a feather-light oil that absorbs completely and works through the day. The Helichrysum Recovery Serum — African Helichrysum, Baobab, Kalahari Melon, and Marula — is richer, deeper, and specifically suited to the skin's overnight repair cycle, calming what the day has inflamed and nourishing what it has depleted.
Two bottles. Two roles. One botanical tradition. A ritual that works with the skin's own intelligence rather than against it.
THE DAY SERUM — VITAMIN C FACE SERUM
Rosehip (Rosa canina) Wild-harvested and rich in bio-active Vitamin C and trans-retinoic acid. Accelerates cellular renewal, softens fine lines, and returns luminosity to skin that has dulled from sun, stress, or time.
Marula (Sclerocarya birrea) Indigenous to southern Africa and exceptionally high in antioxidants. Calms, balances, and shields — non-comedogenic and suited to all skin types, including those prone to breakouts.
Argan (Argania spinosa) Cold-pressed and dense in phytosterols and squalene — the building blocks of a healthy lipid barrier. Deeply replenishes without weight, leaving the skin resilient and soft.
THE NIGHT SERUM — HELICHRYSUM RECOVERY SERUM
Helichrysum (Helichrysum gymnocephalum) Steam-distilled from wild-harvested fynbos. Anti-inflammatory, regenerative, and deeply restorative — it calms sensitised skin, accelerates cellular repair, and enhances the skin's natural radiance. The soul of the night serum.
Baobab (Adansonia digitata) From the Tree of Life. Vitamins A, D, E, and F alongside omegas 3, 6, and 9 — improving elasticity, strengthening the outer skin layer, and supporting recovery in areas that have been stressed or depleted.
Kalahari Melon (Citrullus lanatus) Pressed from the seeds of a desert plant evolved to survive extreme aridity. High in linoleic acid, ultra-lightweight, and non-comedogenic — it maintains the skin's moisture barrier through the night without heaviness.
Marula (Sclerocarya birrea) Present in both serums — locking in moisture, softening, and providing antioxidant protection through both phases of the skin's daily cycle.
WHAT THE SKIN RECEIVES
Brightness — the Vitamin C Serum works at a cellular level through the day, evening skin tone and restoring the quality of light that healthy skin produces naturally.
Defence — antioxidant protection against environmental stress and free radical damage, built into every morning application.
Restoration — Helichrysum accelerates the skin's overnight repair cycle, calming inflammation and rebuilding what the day has taken.
Nourishment — Baobab and Kalahari Melon deliver deep, lasting moisture through the night, leaving skin visibly softer and more supple by morning.
RITUAL
Morning — After cleansing, warm three to five drops of the Vitamin C Face Serum between the palms. Press gently into the face, neck, and décolletage. Follow with the Natural Lotion and sun protection. The serum absorbs completely — nothing sits on the surface.
Evening — After cleansing, warm two to four drops of the Helichrysum Recovery Serum between the palms. Press into slightly warm, damp skin — the botanicals absorb more readily this way. Allow to settle before sleep. The skin will do the rest.
Used consistently, the results are cumulative. Each morning the skin is brighter. Each evening it is better prepared to repair. Over weeks, the difference becomes visible and then difficult to imagine being without.
SKIN TYPE
All skin types. The Vitamin C Serum is particularly suited to dull, uneven, or sun-exposed skin. The Helichrysum Serum is especially restorative for dry, sensitive, inflamed, or mature skin. Together they address the full spectrum of daily skin need.

PROVENANCE NOTE
Helichrysum gymnocephalum — the immortelle, the everlasting — takes its common name from flowers that retain their colour and form long after cutting, a quality that hints at the unusual chemical stability that makes it so effective on the skin overnight. Rosehip, pressed from the wild rose seed, has been used in traditional medicine across southern Africa, South America, and Europe for centuries — its trans-retinoic acid content making it one of the most effective natural cellular renewal agents available. Baobab, from a tree that can live for several thousand years, and Kalahari Melon, from one of the driest places on earth — both oils carry the resilience of their origins directly into the skin.
Day and night. Two serums. One unbroken ritual.
