When I travel to South Africa, I make a list of my favourite beauty products, and stock up on them when I see them. They can be heavy, but it is way worth it when I get back to Sweden.
I love African Extracts Rooibos products. They work well, smell nice, and cost about $5 each. I also like products made particularly for curly and coily hair. There is a wide range at low prices and they really do work.
I do enjoy the local Simply Bee, Africology, Kalahari, Environ and Placecol skincare products.
- Two Sages Rosewater shower gel (handmade by a friend)
- Two Sages Rosewater Toner
- Iwori Marula Oil Shampoo (South Africa has great products for curly hair)
- Iwori Marula Conditioner
- Charlotte Rhys (South African products often found in hotels. The Ginger and Lime smells incredible)
- Africology Intense Hydration Night Treatment (contains Rooibos, Marula, African Potato and Aloe Vera)
- Annafella Lush Plush Cream (also made by a friend)
