Green Rooibos - Going Green

Everyone is talking about "going green" and more green teas are being drunk by healthy consumers the world over. Rooibos or "red bush" tea is now also available in "green", but how can red be green?

Instead of being allowed to ferment for long periods of time, as with normal rooibos, no fermentation takes place and the leaves and stems are rolled and dried directly. The green format of rooibos tea has higher levels of the originally occurring anti-oxidants than fermented rooibos.

Rooibos (Aspalathus Linearis) is endemic to South Africa and grows only in the Cedarberg region of the Cape. It is a traditional, local remedy used by the Khoi people as a general health tonic and to calm nerves. Rooibos is naturally caffeine free and contains aspalathin which is rich in anti-oxidants that fight free radicals to help prevent ageing. Rooibos extract also contains zinc and alpha hydroxy acid which promote healthy skin. Rooibos has a soothing effect on the skin and has been used to treat eczema and other skin irritations.

Green rooibos extract is blended with Aloe Ferox in Imbali hand and nail treatment to create a deeply rich moisturising cream to soften and nourish dry hands and cuticles. Especially good for sensitive skin.

Rooibos, the healing herb.

African Summer Toes

Prepare your feet for an African summer with foot care treatment products from Imbali.

Introducing the new Smoothing Foot Scrub with mint, seaweed and pumice to exfoliate, moisturise and revitalise feet. Natural pumice grains work to remove rough skin whilst softening seaweed extract helps to hydrate dry skin, revealing softer, smoother feet. Mint is a popular traditional medicine with cooling and refreshing properties.

Tips for the perfect home pedicure:
Begin by soaking feet in warm water to cleanse and soften skin and nails. Dry feet thoroughly, particularly between the toes - then follow with treatment steps 1 and 2:

Step 1: Slough away dead skin and callouses with Imbali Smoothing Foot Scrub. Regular exfoliation will leave feet feeling fresh and smooth and also aids with circulation in the feet. Rinse feet, pat dry, trim nails if required and follow with Step 2.

Step 2: Massage Imbali Foot Repair Cream into feet until absorbed. The soothing and moisturising benefits of mint and seaweed will leave skin feeling soft and smooth. For best results use daily, paying special attention to heels. Finish with nail polish if desired.

Imbali products are inspired by the healing traditions of Africa and formulated with local plant oils and extracts recognised for their beneficial properties.

Marula Oil – Mother Nature’s Moisturiser

Marula oil (Sclerocarya birrea) is one of Africa’s finest skin care oils. Rich in antioxidants and oleic acid, marula oil contains essential components for the maintenance of healthy skin.
A natural oil, derived from the nut of the marula fruit, marula oil has traditionally been used as a moisturiser for women and as a baby oil. The mystical marula fruit tree is native to Southern Africa and regarded by many as a sacred tree. Central to local culture, the marula tree cannot be felled without permission from the local chief.

In the northern parts of South Africa, the marula tree plays an integral role in the culture and survival of the local people who eat the fruit in the lean time of the year. The marula fruit has a high Vitamin C content of up to four times that of orange juice and is used to brew traditional marula beer. The marula nut is an important food item from which is derived marula oil.

Marula oil is absorbed easily into the skin and has been blended into Imbali hydrating body lotion to soothe and hydrate the skin. Imbali moisturising shower cream is enriched with marula oil to cleanse and condition the skin.

Imbali harnesses the unique therapeutic and beneficial properties of marula oil and other local plant oils and extracts in its luxury bath and body care range.
