    I have heard so many great things about this cream, but found it too expensive to try, until I recently found a "travel size" for a reasonable price. Sadly, now that I tried it, I don't understand...

    Really rich thick moisturiser, amazing smell (like most Weleda products) although I personally find its too thick for most everyday purposes and I use it primarily for the odd patch of dry skin-...

    In our house Weleda Skin Food is in the medicine cupboard. We are never without it. It's the go-to dry skin cream. We use it to treat: raw knuckles in winter, rough patches on elbows, anything that...

    Great product. Leaves skin soft and moisturized but a tad bit greasy, which is okay in rough weather imo. The fragrance is citrusy/orangey/medicinal but not bad and it doesn't linger. A definite...

    I have to start by saying that I have very seasonal skin. It's incredibly dry during the winter and combination in the summer. For the brutal winters (even in the desert here) this is the only...

    Skin food is a thick moisturiser that I find hard to spread on its own. I use it on my hands, and I can definitely feel that it imparts moisture. The smell is not unpleasant, especially for a...

    Overall, not a fabulous moisturizer, but a good one for hands and a very good one for the face. For the face it is very good at moisturizing but not too greasy and really does soak in well. For the...

    I normally use Sea Buckthorn hand cream, but for the winter I prefer this one. Leave my hands hydrated and I love how it smells! It's always in my bag ;)
