Weleda Skin Food 75ml

The original. Weleda Skin Food has been made since 1926 and has never needed changing. A rich, intensely nourishing cream for dry, rough skin - hands, heels, elbows, face, and anywhere that needs serious moisture. Skin Food is built on a base of organic sunflower seed oil and sweet almond oil, emulsified with lanolin (wool wax) and beeswax into a thick, rich cream that delivers deep, lasting moisture without sitting on the surface. The botanical blend - wild pansy (Viola tricolor), chamomile, calendula, and rosemary - works with the oil base to calm and comfort dry, stressed skin. The fragrance is from natural essential oils of sweet orange, lavender, and benzoin - distinctive and warm rather than floral. This is a cult product for a reason. The texture is thick - more ointment-like than lotion - which makes it particularly effective for very dry patches, cracked heels, rough elbows, dry hands after cleaning, and winter skin. A small amount goes a long way. NATRUE certified natural cosmetic. Free from synthetic preservatives, synthetic fragrances, mineral oil, paraffin, and colourants. Made in Germany by Weleda AG. Not suitable for vegans - contains lanolin (wool wax) and beeswax.
