Have you ever tried a local skincare brand? What’s great about them is that they are made with our climate and common skin concerns in mind. One brand that has been around for over 40 years is Placecol, and their mix-and-match range of high-quality products will give you a back-to-work glow for a fresh start to the new year.
A South African skincare solution
Before and during the 1980s, the skincare market was flooded with expensive international brands. A local husband-and-wife team who were creating their own skincare products noticed a gap and soon Placecol was being stocked in pharmacies across the country. This brought homegrown products to the people. And the people were impressed!

Packed with natural ingredients, including the antioxidant-rich oil of the Manketti nut, both the regular and Illuminé ranges boast day and night products that are gentle yet effective. They tackle some of SA’s biggest skin concerns, namely signs of ageing and hyperpigmentation. In 2003, the brand was invited to become an official supplier to Edgars stores nationwide, bringing their products into the hands of everyday South Africans.
