Weleda Skin Food Original Ultra-Rich Body Cream 2.5 Fluid Ounce, Plant Rich H...

So nice. Thick and creamy with a faint clean citrus-vanilla-grass scent. Great on backs of hands and shins, feet, cheekbones and around mouth (or wherever you’re dry) in winter. Absorbs quickly for how thick it is, leaves the faintest glow. I haven’t had good results layering over other lotions, it gets sticky as a top layer. Works best for me as a stand-alone, even with the other products in line (light moisture face lotion, body lotion, and body butter). Highly recommend for dry skin.

I absolutely love this product. I find it to have a pleasant, mild smell and a nice consistency. It is thick but spreads really nicely and gives kind of a sheen to the skin. It absorbs quite well on the body and face. Compared to other plant based creams I’ve used, this one is much less greasy and leaves the skin nicely moisturized without any after effects. I have discovered a specific use for it that cancels the need out for another cosmetic product, namely brow gel. I find this leaves my eyebrows softened and keeps them in place, also gives a bit of shine that is even nicer than the eyebrow gel I’ve bought from sephora. I especially like that Weleda Skin food products are gentle enough to use as an eye cream when you need that extra hydration to fight winter dryness.

I decided to try Weleda Skin Food because my daughter, who is 23, uses it religiously on her face. She is 23 with medium skin tone, and I am 55 with fair skin, so it doesn't necessarily seem like the same product would work for both of us. BUT, I do have pretty dry skin so I thought I'd give it a go. I apply it last, at night, after cleansing, using a nighttime moisturizer and a serum. This occlusive cream is rich, acting like a barrier. I was worried it would sticky -- it doesn't -- and that it would make me break out -- it hasn't. I don't quite look like my 23 year old daughter, BUT my skin looks (and more importantly feels) SO MUCH BETTER. Just plumper and more hydrated. It genuinely reduces the appearance of my forehead wrinkles, including my 11 lines between my eyes. I actually started using it in the winter, because I live in New England and ski a lot, my skin is subject to extreme temps. But I now use it year round and carry it with me on all my travels. It has become a staple in my routine. And let's not even talk about the price point -- so so reasonable! The only thing I don't LOVE about it is the way it smells, but it's not too strong and I can definitely live with it. I'm a huge fan.

Great non-irritating moisturizer for my sensitive rosacea skin. No burning when using it!! My face feels better and is way less dry, itchy and uncomfortable. No idea how this thick stuff could be used as a makeup primer it’s so thick and takes a while to soak in. I only use it at night. I love how it smells it literally relaxes me.

I have been using this as a face moisturizer at night, and it has completely transformed my skin. I live in SoCal, and the weather is in the middle of changing. Yesterday we had 5% humidity, temperature has been vacillating between the high 80s and low 50s. My skin is unbelievably dry, especially my face. As a total skincare junkie, I’ve been using two different types of moisturizer, straight Argan oil, Marine Hyaluronics by The Ordinary, and rosewater. Nothing worked. My undereyes were peeling. My foundation and concealer caught every single dry spot to the extent that I couldn’t wear makeup without looking like I had a peeling sunburn underneath. I was just about fed up when I Googled “best moisturizer for dry skin” and this came up. This is a new holy grail. The (Mild) Downsides: The smell is not phenomenal, a bit like paint, almost. It scared me at first, but I have very sensitive skin, and it hasn’t irritated it. I believe the smell is natural. I also get reactive breakouts to some products, but not this, so even though it’s thicker than acrylic paint, fear not. That brings me to my next point— this is THICK. Very, very thick, and depending on the temperature, difficult to spread. I usually just take the opportunity to massage my face, but once I get to the thin eye area I swap to a patting motion OR cut it with some Argan oil. It feels sticky but once it sinks in it really isn’t. It may be best to think of it as an overnight mask, or in very thin layers, a primer. This will make your skin incredibly happy and hydrated, but it will also make you shine like a freshly waxed floor if you lay it on thick during the day. A little does go a long way, but it’s tough to get that little to go the way. All downsides have been 200% worth it for me. My skin is no longer peeling at all. My light coverage foundation goes on the way you see in commercials. My concealer is working without issue. My skin feels plump and not-fatigued. I have even been able to return to using my retinol and glycolic acid in spite of the extremely dry weather, and my skin is STILL happy and moisturized. I could not recommend this enough if you’re at a loss with dry skin, and if you aren’t afraid of stickiness, lay it on thick and sleep in it.

My face is beyond dry all day every day, especially around my chin, and this product has truly changed my life. I have tried so many “ultra repair creams” and they have all been just a temporary fix. I used to have to carry around moisturizer in my purse and re-apply 3-4 times a day, but now, I don’t need to! I only use at night and apply my normal moisturizer in the AM and I stay hydrated all day long! This is definitely a product I’d only use once a day, almost like an overnight mask, since it is very thick. I’ve also seen more improvements with each day that I use it, and it’s only been a week. 10000/10 would recommend!

Fantastic for face and entire body. It is thick but absorbs nicely. Herbal ingredients are very soothing for acne prone skin. Leaves you with a healthy glow and works great under makeup. I immediately bought another tube when I ran out. Great all around moisturizer for morning and night especially if your skin is over 40 and a bit on the dryer side :) Also it is so much more affordable than others that are no where near as good

I have seen RAVING reviews from all over, but MUA’s in particular that made me pull the trigger on this. I will say, it absolutely makes my VERY dry and dehydrated skin look flawless with makeup. Truly, a dream. However, and the reason for only three stars, as others have said, it does have a very strong fragrance and has caused my skin to seriously hate me. I didn’t want to believe it was this product because of how good my makeup was coming out, so I started rubbing a little on my hand and dabbing my makeup brush on there just to pick some up to blend my foundation in rather than a full lather. Nope. I definitely do have super sensitive skin, so if you don’t, you’ll likely be okay. I didn’t mind the thickness because as someone with very dry skin, any moisturizing product I use feels like diaper cream 😂 I don’t mind thick, but I am genuinely nervous for how long it’ll take to repair my skin after the damage this unfortunately caused. It’s been extremely red, blotchy, and generally just irritated. I naturally have clear skin with some occasional redness every now and again. But with this… my skin is angry 24/7 at this point, with or without using it. Seems it’s been aggravated enough from using this a few times a week for about a month, so I’m hoping my clear skin returns after some barrier repair 😅

My wife has been asking for this months and loved it, her skin is looking better than ever.

Nachdem ich eine Allergie gegen meine alte Augencreme entwickelt hatte, musste ich zwangsläufig meine Pflegeroutine überdenken. Ich habe bereits früher schon seeeeehr viel positives über diese Creme gehört (als Gesichtscreme) und dachte mir ich gebe ihr mal eine Chance. Nachdem meine heißgeliebte Creme von Clinique aufgebraucht war, war es an der Zeit der Skin Food Creme eine Chance zu geben. Sie ist super. Anders kann ich es nicht sagen. Meine Haut ist recht verwöhnt und ich kriege von vielen "billigen" Cremes einfach ziemlich viele Pickel. Von dieser hier absolut nicht. Keinerlei Allergie, Rötungen oder ähnliches. Ich benutze sie rein als Gesichtscreme, ich kann mir aber aufgrund der Reichhaltigkeit vorstellen das sie auch gut für jegliche anderen trockenen Hautstellen geeignet ist. Meine Pflegeroutine sah und sieht im Grunde so aus das ich mich abends abschminke, wasche und dann eine reichhaltige Pflege auftrage die über Nacht einzieht. Mein Gesicht spannt sofort nach der Reinigung, ist also tendenziell sehr trocken, bis auf den obligatorischen T-Zonen-Glanz. Morgens entferne ich die nächtliche, übriggebliebene Schicht sanft mit Mizellenwasser und trage dann Primer und Makeup auf. Das war's. Eine wichtige Anmerkung auch bezüglich anderer Rezensionen hier: Die Creme zieht nicht ein. Tut mir leid aber das ist völlig utopisch. Sie ist von der Konsistenz sehr dick, ungefähr wie Bepanthen-Salbe sogar etwas dicker. Und genau so fettig. Das ist ein sehr guter Vergleich. Aber trotzdem angenehm und sehr beruhigend und pflegend. Ich benutze sie wie oben geschildert über Nacht, daher stört mich der "fettige Glanz" nicht. Aber sie ist absolut nicht als Makeup-Unterlage geeignet. Zumindest nicht in ihrem Ur-Zustand. Falls ich nicht drum herum komme, massiere ich sie ein, warte 15min und tupfe dann vorsichtig und ohne Reiben die glänzende Schicht mit einem sauberen Kosmetiktuch ab. Da bleibt immernoch eine reichhaltiges Gefühl auf der Haut übrig, zum "Schichten" mit Primer, Makeup usw. etwas ungewohnt aber es funktioniert. Um ehrlich zu sein ist so derart reichhaltig das sie nicht nur mein Gesicht super pflegt - um genau zu sein spare ich mir seitdem die Augencreme. Sie brennt nicht in den Augen und spendet sehr viel Feuchtigkeit. Ich kenne die All About Eyes von Clinique und was-weiß-ich-alles für Cremes, alle sollen Feuchtigkeit spenden und Falten minimieren. Mag sein, aber ich habe noch nie eine Creme gesehen die meine Augenfalten, speziell am Unterlid, so gut pflegt. Ich halte absolut nichts von solchen Aussagen das eine Creme Falten verschwinden lässt oder ähnliches. Ich benutze die Creme bereits seit 5 Monaten täglich - aber wenn ich meine Augen mit dieser Creme eincreme sind meine Falten deutlich weniger ausgeprägt. Sie sind nicht weg, aber die Haut ist einfach absolut nicht trocken und die trockene Textur, die Falten richtig auffällig macht ist einfach nicht vorhanden. Das ist die erste Creme die (bei mir) genug Feuchtigkeit spendet um wirklich einen Unterschied zu machen.

I use this as a night cream, it smelled beautiful and is so nourishing without feeling greasy. I even started using it under my makeup when doing a full face makeup. Skin stays hydrated and glowy! Heard about it through Bella Hadid on IG so I had to try it. Will purchase again and again!

I love this cream; I mainly use it for my hands, but it works on dry skin wherever you need it. It is the best hand cream I have ever used and I have tried so many over the years. This one stands out as you only have to use a small amount. It is particularly good for my cuticles which can get dry & hard and no other hand cream has really helped this issue. It is thick and initially leaves your skin shiny but it soaks in and the shiny goes. It has a rather sharp smell which reminds me of eucalyptus. I'm not keen on the smell but I love the product so much I have accepted it. It's rather expensive considering the amount of product; but if it works I am prepared to pay the price. My only complaint - I wish it came in a larger tube. If you have dry hands, give this a try you won't be disappointed. I restrict it to my hands as there are other good lotions or creams for the body that are more cost effective. Although I can purchase this from my local health food stores it is cheaper on Amazon.

My face skin totally colapsed the passed winter and was super dry and just trubble. I've read about this product and the bennefits it provides. And my face is sooooo soft, looks amazing and I just love it so much. Will buy again ofc 🙏🥰💯
