Weleda Skin Food

Weleda Skin Food is an iconic intensive moisturiser for very dry and rough skin, trusted for generations as a rich, multi-purpose solution for areas requiring extra nourishment and protection.

Its thick, concentrated formula combines organic Sunflower Seed Oil and Sweet Almond Oil with Lanolin and Beeswax to replenish skin-conditioning lipids and create a protective layer that helps reduce moisture loss.

Particularly useful for rough heels, dry elbows, hard-working hands and other stubborn dry patches, Skin Food provides intensive moisturisation that leaves the skin feeling softer, smoother and more comfortable.

The signature Skin Food botanical complex features Viola Tricolor, organic Calendula, Chamomile and Rosemary extracts, providing soothing, conditioning and antioxidant skincare benefits.

Glycerine provides additional moisture support, while the oil-and-wax-rich formulation helps reinforce the skin’s natural protective barrier and protect very dry areas from further moisture loss.

Despite being particularly well suited to targeted dry patches, Skin Food is a versatile formula that can be used on both the face and body. Apply it to hardworking hands morning and night, massage into rough areas as needed or use it as an intensive overnight facial moisturiser when skin requires richer care.

Weleda Skin Food is NATRUE certified and formulated with organic botanical ingredients.

Why Choose Weleda Skin Food?

Weleda Skin Food is designed for times when an everyday lightweight moisturiser simply isn’t enough.

The combination of Sunflower Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Lanolin and Beeswax creates a rich, protective cream that helps replenish dry skin and seal in moisture. This makes it especially useful for stubborn dry areas that are frequently exposed to washing, cold weather or other drying environmental conditions.

The formula also contains Weleda’s characteristic blend of Viola Tricolor, Calendula, Chamomile and Rosemary, providing botanical conditioning and soothing benefits.

Compared with the lighter Skin Food Light, the original Skin Food provides a richer and more intensive texture, making it particularly well suited to very dry skin, rough patches and overnight care.
