    This is a very emolient face cream great for extreme conditions. I think it is too heavy for an everyday moisturizer but it works wonders in cold mountain weather. They sell it in small travel size...

    At first I liked the results: a night cream that delivered soft, smooth, happy skin every morning. But after three weeks of usage I started waking up to skin that looked irritated and blotchy. ...

    Not for me! I can not stand the smell. I also would not advise on facial usage. Perhaps I was expecting too much from the reviews posted, but did not find this as anymore than a marginal product.

    I like the smell, but this cream is very very very greasy on my skin. It never completely absorbs. Would not repurchase.

    OK, now I'm going to jump on the Skin Food bandwagon. Weleda must be wondering what the hell is going on with the huge spike in sales and it's all due to MUA! Fantastic product, supremely...

    My positive sentiments essentially echo those expressed below -- but with one major caveat. This cream does not really absorb well -- i.e., it's so rich that even when I use it overnight, my face...
