The Wonder Product by Weleda

So a while back I published a What's in your bag post with Cristina. One of her favorite items, Weleda skin food, was listed in the post. Being new to the Weleda line I was intrigued. But not having been to my local Whole Foods in a while threw me off track from picking up the product. That was until a couple of days ago when I read an article praising the multi functional skin food. I knew that I needed to check this product out and see what it was all about and I am happy to say there is much ado about something! This stuff is heaven. There is one caveat though, and that is the aroma. It has a very distinct herbal aroma that could be offensive to some. I love it, to me, it smells like a field of wildflowers and herbs. If you can deal with Calendula and Rosemary it isn't that bad. The aroma dissipates and you are left with soft supple skin. I have been told that standard operating procedure usage with this cream is dry hands, elbows and feet. But it appears users tout it can do so much more. You can mix it with pigments as a highlighter, it can act as your facial moisturizer, fine line corrector, wind burn or chapped lip saver and it makes ragged cuticles and nails look like new. Skin food contains no synthetic preservatives, fragrances or chemicals. It is all natural and Made in Germany. The product is super thick so a little goes a long way. Be sure if you are applying it to your face to use it sparingly and blend very well. It is sold at Whole Foods and online at Drugstore.com. If you go to Whole Food they have a tester and you can check it out. It is currently on sale for under $10.00, for a 2.5 oz tube.  It is a tad on the pricey side but for all the ways you can use it, it sure redeems itself.  Check it out and tell me what you think.
