Love this so much. I use it as a night cream and its so nice - its just an all round really effective moisturiser. I like knowing it's a natural product, so I'm not loading my face with chemicals....

Weleda is one of those brands I innately trust, probably because it was around the house when I was a kid. I started out using this for dry hands, but at some point, I read an article about using...

This smells beautiful, I can't describe it very well but it's kind of orangey, clean but spicy. Quite edible, but not like food. Anyway. I love the texture, so thick, it reminds me of oil paint,...

For this price point, I would prefer for it to have a pump, but the formula is so perfect that I don't mind. I use it for my face at night and wake up with a glow. It is thick, but doesn't break me...

Fantastic! I use this as at night on my face a few nights per week. My skin leans dry and I don't break out (well anymore anyway). It is thick and a bit greasy but you need to warm it up in...

Skin food really confuses me. I love it but not for the reason I think I am supposed too. Its supposed to be a really nourishing and moisturising cream but whenever I use this it makes my skin very...

This cream is especially good for dry, sensitive skin on the face. I would not suggest for combination-oily or very oily skin as it is way too rich and greasy! I found this works best warmed up...

I really have nothing bad to say about this product. I have very sensitive and dry skin, and I have never broken out from this, nor is it greasy. I use it overnight as a moisturizer on my face and...

This is a staple for me...I use it for everything. I even use it on my face for night cream. It does not break me out and I am sensitive so that is good. But even if you are scared to use it on...

Well I bought this on a friend's recommendation, she loves it. I do like the packaging, and I think you get a lot of product, but it's the cream itself that I'm not a fan of. It is quite thick and...

I must admit I'm a little shocked to see such glowing reviews. It made me doubt my opinion. But to me this cream can be summed up in one word - meh. It's fine. It's kind of heavy and greasy. I use...
