The Natural Africa is a new brand to me and I must say a rather exciting one. Their range offers luxurious, eco-friendly skincare that has been crafted from sustainably sourced African botanicals and this is all from an independent small business. How good is that? The Natural Africa, believes natural beauty is the celebration of your skin’s innate ability to thrive and that really does make sense to me. It’s all about embracing your skin’s true essence, highlighting its natural glow and also maintaining its health through the purest, most wholesome means.
As I expected from The Natural Africa, the products are crafted with the utmost care. They sustainably source their botanicals, which are cherished for their medicinal properties and are rich in natural oils, vitamins, antioxidants and omegas. They are then formulated by their team of pharmaceutical and dermatological specialists to protect, nourish and renew sensitive skin.
At the heart of the brand is a simple truth: nature knows best. It is this truth that guides everything the company do and I congratulate them on that too! The Natural Africa is proud to offer a skincare collection that is rooted in African ancestry, a range that honours the past, whilst also empowering the women of today.
At the moment the brand currently has 4 skincare products and we have loved reviewing 3 of them and it is great news that their range has been created for all skin types to use. There is another new launch coming early 2025, hopefully I’ll be able to tell you about that soon.
Cape Aloe Serum from The Natural Africa
CAPE ALOE SERUM to NOURISH/RESTORE
This is a unique blend of African botanicals with superior antioxidants that will amplify the hydration levels and seal in moisture to your skin. You’ll find this serum will enhance your skin repair and healing as it is rich in antioxidants, antiviral and antimicrobial properties, as well as having powerful anti-inflammatory properties. The result is that your skin is left feeling luxuriously soft. There is a unique blend of African botanicals Aloe Ferox, Devils Claw, Rose Geranium and Grapefruit to amplify hydration levels and seal in moisture, leaving your skin sumptuously soft. Hyaluronic acid helps skin stretch and flex and therefore helps reduce skin wrinkles and lines. That is something we are all looking for.

It is suggested that you use the serum on your skin in the morning and evening after cleansing. Gently apply it to your face using upward, circular motions. Allow the serum to fully absorb into your skin before moving on to the next step in your skincare routine. I am sure you’ll love this serum as much as I do.
