Weleda Skin Food

Celebrating Earth Month this April with WELEDA SKIN FOOD – a green hero in more ways than one…

Created in 1926 to treat dry and rough skin, the formula for Weleda’s iconic Skin Food is the natural product choice for beauty devotees worldwide every day. Only the finest ingredients from specially selected biodynamic and organic farms are used to produce the health-enhancing herbal and homoeopathic formulas for Weleda’s exquisite body care products. All products are free of synthetic preservatives, fragrances, colours, raw materials derived from mineral oils and parabens.

High-profile celebrities have long discovered Skin Food as their ultimate skin hero and the product has become a firm favourite with makeup artists and models alike as their green beauty saviour backstage and beyond. During New York Fashion Week Skin Food took centre stage at The Green Shows Eco Fashion Week when design visionary Gary Harvey created a one-of-a-kind garment made from recycled Skin Food packaging. The dress was unveiled at the runway show on opening night and was a true green statement! Skin Food also accumulated a huge following during London Fashion Week when it was provided to all models at the Model Sanctuary, brainchild of Supermodel Erin O’Connor on her personal request.

Skin Food is a must-have rescue remedy for moisturising and conditioning rough, dry skin anywhere on the body or face. The ultra-rich, deeply-hydrating formula contains a blend of herbal extracts, including the soothing properties of chamomile, the mild antiseptic properties of pansy and rosemary leaf, and the anti-inflammatory effects of calendula flower. It also contains a blend of lanolin, enriching oils and waxes, including essential fatty acids and vitamin E from organic sunflower seeds and is completely free of preservatives and parabens. The refreshing fragrance is from pure essential oils including sweet orange and lavandulae.

A little goes a long way, so apply sparingly. This indulgent 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 fully absorbed. For a deeply nourishing treatment, gently and liberally apply Skin Food to hands, then cover with cotton gloves and leave overnight.

NATURALLY FRESH with Weleda Organic Deodorants

NATURALLY FRESH with Weleda organic deodorants

Weleda’s all-natural deodorants have long reached cult status for their effectiveness and versatile aromas of earthy Sage, purifying Citrus and luxurious Wild Rose. Weleda is celebrating the success of the range with a special promotion giving new customers the chance to experience the long-lasting protection and freshness.

Weleda’s deodorants work by neutralising odour-causing bacteria that can accompany the body’s natural detoxification without preventing perspiration or disrupting the body’s natural functions. The formulations combine a mixture of purely indulgent essential oils and are free from anti-perspirants such as Aluminium Salts, which are known to interfere with the natural functions of the skin.  The deodorants are dermatologically tested for efficacy and skin tolerance and can be applied throughout the day, as often as required. All formulations are free from synthetic additives, including fragrance, colour or preservatives and made without raw materials derived from mineral oils. Conveniently packed in a non-aerosol bottle, they are easy to use and care for the environment.

Sage Deodorant

Natural essential oils of Biodynamic Lemon Peel and Orange infuse this fresh formulation, which has immediate invigorating properties and serves as a purifying disinfectant.

Wild Rose Deodorant

Floral fragranced, this deodorant is made with pure essential oil from organic Rose Leafs, which has mildly astringent properties and refreshes and tones the skin whilst cleansing away impurities. The exquisite scents of Wild Rose and Neroli are combined with natural herbal extracts.

WELEDA POMEGRANATE REGENERATING BODY CARE

INTRODUCING WELEDA POMEGRANATE REGENERATING BODY CARE

Cultivated for more than 5,000 years, the pomegranate has been a symbol of life and fertility and metaphorical references of ‘the beauty of a woman’ have been attached to it since antiquity. Today it’s efficacy and highly anti-oxidative effect is scientifically recognised.

Weleda is delighted to introduce Pomegranate Regenerating Body Care, the optimal companion for the skin’s natural ageing process and a holistic, pro-ageing solution. The soft, feminine fragrance of the range inspires and stimulates through notes of Neroli and Blood Orange rounded off by sensual Sandalwood, Davana and Vanilla. A blend of organic Pomegranate Seed Oil and pure natural plant extracts helps improve skin firmness and enhance natural radiance whilst protecting skin against skin-damaging free radicals.

Weleda uses only raw plant material obtained from biodynamic cultivation or from own contract projects that
are oriented to the company philosophy and anthroposophical tenets. The Pomegranate Seed Oil (Punica Granatum Seed Oil) is sourced from a certified organic cultivation in Turkey, where seeds are cold pressed and subsequently filtrated to maintain a powerful complex of mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids (with a minimum of 60% punicic acid), Vitamin E and Flavonoids.

A new blend of oil and aqueous-alcohol extracts containing Millet Flake and Sunflower Petal complemented
by Millet Husk and Ruscus Rhizome rounds off the formula. Millet Extract from certified organic cultivation in
Switzerland and Austria has a long tradition of being used in foods to ‘beautify the skin and hair’. The oil
extract (Millet Flake) with Miliacin can stimulate cell reproduction while the aquaeous-ethanol extract (Millet
Husks) contains Silicic Acid, which promotes the ability of the skin to retain moisture, promotes the synthesis
of connective tissue and has anti-inflammatory effects.
Precious Sunflower Petal Extract cultivated in Eastern Europe (Bulgaria and Hungary) is known for its wound healing properties and Ruscus Root Extract from Macedonia has valuable medicinal properties and displays vein-tightening and capillary-strengthening effects.

All products in Weleda’s Pomegranate Regenerating Body Care are:
• Dermatologically tested
• Certified natural and obtained from biodynamic cultivation projects or certified organic cultivation
• Free of synthetic fragrances, colours, preservatives and raw materials derived from mineral oils
• Products and ingredients are not tested on animals

Pomegranate Regenerating Body Oil contains precious Pomegranate Seed Oil, distinguished by its antioxidant and regenerative virtues. The rich formula nurtures intensively and boosts the skin’s radiance. Natural cell regeneration is stimulated and skin protected through the highly anti-oxidative effect.

Pomegranate Regenerating Hand Cream cares for hands, noticeably improving appearance and texture. Precious pomegranate seed oil has anti-oxidant properties and promotes skin cell regeneration. Hands, in particular exposed to damaging environmental influences, are actively protected so that the premature formation of age-related pigmented maculae (age spots) is prevented and the natural selfprotective function is enforced. Pure Sesame Oil and natural Shea Butter protect the skin from moisture loss and care for hands, making them palpably softer. Extract of
Golden Millet, rich in silicic acid, stimulates the formation of those structuring components of the skin, which provide it with firmness and elasticity. Valuable extracts of Ruscus and Sunflower Petals complement the rich, yet easily absorbed formula.

free from synthetic perfumes, colouring and preservatives and contains no raw materials on a liquid petrolatum basis. The pH of the product is skin-friendly and skin tolerance was dermatologically certified.
