Rare Beauti

A barrier-first skincare brand for sensitive, reactive and overwhelmed skin, founded in Gqeberha by Juanelle Venter after 23 years in skincare. One gentle seven-step ritual. Nothing harsh.

Juanelle didn’t want a hard sell. The site opens with care and understanding, and products come later, once trust is there.

One routine is all you need

Seven numbered steps that work together. The site is built around the routine, not a wall of products.

The butterfly is the dot on the i

Rare Beauti is spelled with an i on purpose. The butterfly stands for the journey from stressed skin to confident skin.

The challenge

Great products. Hard to choose from.

The old site sold each product on its own. Visitors with sensitive skin couldn’t tell which step they needed, how the routine fits together, or where to start. Our job was to make the routine the hero and guide people to the right product, gently.

What we built

A website that feels like the products.

Soft, pressed surfaces like a calm treatment room. Every feature below is from the new site.

01 · The ritual dial

Turn the ritual.

Seven steps on a dial you can drag, tap or step through. Each turn shows the product, what it does and when to use it. One switch shows the morning or evening routine.

02 · Meet the steps

Seven cards. One routine.

Every product is a numbered step. Tap a card and it flips to show when to use it, who it’s for and how to apply it. A final card helps anyone who isn’t sure where to start.

Seven flip cards for the routine steps
03 · Product pages

Calm, clear, and easy to buy.

Each product shows its step in the routine, a plain-language description, who it’s best for, size options and Payflex instalments. ‘Add to your ritual’ replaces pushy ‘Buy now’ buttons.

04 · Shop by concern

Start with how your skin feels.

Visitors can browse by routine step, by kit, or by concern: tight and thirsty, red and irritated, congested and more. Every product is tagged to the concerns it helps.

05 · Stressed or supported

Show the feeling, not just the product.

A simple switch shows how a stressed barrier feels against a supported one. It explains the brand’s whole idea in one tap, before anyone sees a price.

06 · The founder’s story

More than skincare.

The About page puts Juanelle’s philosophy first: work with the skin barrier, not against it. The goal is calmer, healthier skin over time, not a flawless photo.

About page
Design system

Warm, calm, and consistent.

Warm whites and soft gold, with one colour for each step of the routine, used as small accents and never as loud blocks. The name is always set in Unna, black on light pages and white on dark.

About our work

Fair questions.

See all questions →

Is Rare Beauti a real client?

Yes. Rare Beauti is a South African skincare brand for sensitive skin. Its founder gave us permission to share the project, her vision and her goals.

Why only one case study?

We would rather show one real project in depth than a gallery of mock-ups. More case studies will follow as projects launch.

Can my site look like this?

Your site will look like your business, not someone else’s. What carries over is the approach: understand your customers first, then design around how they choose.

Will you feature my site here?

Only if you’re happy for us to. We always ask first, and you see the write-up before it goes live.
