AYA Natural Skincare
Couldn't load pickup availability
A natural skin moisturiser for face and body.
Light enough for morning and rich enough for night. AYA Cream sinks in quickly, leaving skin soft, smooth and comfortable with no greasy film. Made with nourishing nut and botanical oils, plus our signature fermented papaya.
What's in it, and why
- Macadamia oil: our main oil, rich and silky, and close to the natural oils in your skin.
- Avocado and apricot kernel oils: add richness for drier skin without feeling heavy.
- Marula oil: a lightweight African oil rich in oleic acid and antioxidants, known for absorbing easily.
- Jojoba oil: close in structure to your skin's own oils.
- Baobab and rosehip oils: high in essential fatty acids, which help soften dry, rough patches.
- Aloe ferox: South Africa's own aloe, for a cool, comfortable feel.
- Fermented papaya: its natural papain enzymes gently help lift dry, flaky skin.
Who it's for
All skin types, face and body, and a favourite with customers with sensitive skin. As one put it: "My skin is red and inflamed. This cream soaks in, and it feels calm and soothed immediately."
Contains nut oils (macadamia and apricot kernel). If you have a nut allergy, check with your doctor first.
Use it on its own, or with any AYA Natural Skin products. 100ml glass jar.

Pair it with AYA Balm: what customers say
Great Balm!
I have a small eczema patch on my hand, and I have tried almost everything to get rid of it, but nothing worked. I used this balm only for a few days, and now the patch is gone!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
I was given many reasons why I should try the Aya Balm. The only thing that caught my eye was..."It's great for Mosquito bites'. WELL WELL WELL, Aya Balm you rock! Within minutes of applying this to my Mozzie Bites....it calms the itch right down and soothes the horrible pain and swelling that comes with it. Well done Aya - not many brands live up to their sales pitch!
Love this balm
I've used many different balms in my life. After landing on AYA Balm which was gifted to me by a friend I knew that this one is a keeper. It keeps my lips moisturized for long especially in the winter months. It is also easy to apply and last very long. Thank you AYA!
Wish I'd discovered this sooner
I wish I had discovered this sooner! It is a remarkable product - excellent for babies, toddlers and parents.
Wonder balm
I got this for my plumber fiance to keep on him at work for nicks and cuts etc - its worked wonders and the metal screw tin is great for him too. It actually helped draw out a piece of glass he has had stuck in his hand for a long time and prevent further infection. And i also steal some for spots on my face which its helped with too. Will definitely be getting more!
Teenage love!
My very fussy teenager loves this product. He has very dry hands and he uses this every night to keep the skin from cracking. Much better than petroleum-based Zambuk!
South AfricaLove this Cream
I have really tricky skin; my hands get dry quickly, and my skin is red and inflamed. This cream is just magic; it soaks into my skin, and it feels calm and soothed immediately.
South AfricaQuality
I love AYA —this batch seemed more “watery “ if thats the word—compared to previous products.
South AfricaPure Love
My family and I have been using AYA products for several years and we love all of them. Our ages range from eight to 59 years and each of us uses the range of products that is appropriate for them. We cannot imagine our skin care without AYA products.
