South African Through and Through.
Rooibos grows in the Cederberg mountains and almost nowhere else on earth. It contains aspalathin and quercetin — antioxidant compounds that protect the skin against environmental damage and reduce inflammation. Combined with the beef tallow base, it makes a bar that is genuinely kind to sensitive, reactive, or sun-exposed skin. No synthetic additives. No imported botanicals. A South African ingredient in a South African soap.
More details
What Is the Rooibos Boerseep Bar?
Traditional boerseep — beef tallow, water, and sodium hydroxide — with rooibos added. Rooibos has well-documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that make it useful as a topical ingredient, not just a drink. The antioxidants protect skin cells against oxidative stress from sun, pollution, and daily exposure. In a tallow base that nourishes and supports the skin barrier, the combination is effective for sensitive or sun-damaged skin.
This is also the most distinctively South African bar in the range — an ingredient with deep cultural roots, in a soap format that has been made here for generations.
Who It’s For
- Sensitive or reactive skin — rooibos reduces inflammation and calms redness.
- Sun-exposed skin — the antioxidant compounds help protect against environmental damage.
- Anyone wanting a proudly South African product — rooibos is native to this country and grown nowhere else.
- Daily body use — gentle enough for everyday washing on all skin types.
How to Use
- For body — use like any bar soap. Lather between wet hands and apply. Rinse clean.
- For face — the anti-inflammatory properties make this a good choice for reactive or redness-prone skin.
| Rooibos gives the bar a warm, earthy colour and a faintly herbal scent. Store on a draining soap dish to extend bar life. |
Ingredients
This product contains the following ingredients:
Rooibos Tea
Beef Tallow (Skin)
Tallow is incredibly similar to the chemistry of our own skin. So, when issues like dryness, acne, or eczema arise, tallow can soothe the skin and provide the exact mineral requirements needed for optimal healing. Beef tallow penetrates deeply into the skin, providing intense hydration. It restores and strengthens the skin’s natural protective barrier.
Aqua (Water)
Sodium Hydroxide
Sodium hydroxide, also known as caustic soda (Afrikaans: seepsoda), is a common ingredient in traditional soap making. It plays a crucial role in the soap making process. It’s a highly alkaline substance that triggers a reaction called saponification when mixed with fats or oils. Without sodium hydroxide, the saponification process wouldn’t occur, and you wouldn’t have soap! Once saponification is complete, the sodium is fully consumed in the reaction and completely safe to use on your skin.
