Made with organic sunflower seed oil, and extracts of wild pansy, chamomile, calendula and revitalising rosemary extract to perk up tired skin, it is a great rescue remedy for lack-lustre or generally undernourished complexions.

It can be used as a protective cream in harsh weather and is excellent for anyone regularly out of doors.

How to Use:
A little goes a long way, so apply sparingly. This very rich cream is best applied to the face by gently patting on, so as to avoid dragging the skin. Elsewhere on the body, gently smooth into the skin until the cream is absorbed. To deeply nourish hard working, dry hands: apply liberally, cover with gloves and leave overnight.
Awards & Press Coverage:
Health & Beauty Magazine, September 2010. Feature: Festival chic. What they say? Weleda Skin Food. No handbag (or rucksack!) is complete without this multi-tasking cream. Great for dry lips, elbows and knees, you can even use this celeb favourite as an emergency face mask, on cuticles, or to thin out potent fake tan! If it’s good enough for Alexa Chung, it’s good enough for us.
Woman’s Own, 2 August 2010. Feature: Good Health. Did you know? What they say? As well as being itchy, dry skin on the lower legs means nutrients from the blood aren’t reaching the skin. The dryer the skin, the weaker the protective barrier – healing is slower and the risk of infection greater. The fix? Use a rich cream such as the award-winning Weleda Skin Food a favourite with models such as Erin O’Connor.
