Weleda Skin Food Cream is a versatile nourishing and moisturizing product that takes care of rough and dry areas of the skin of the face and body.
The famous formula of the cream was developed back in 1926 by Weleda experts specifically for dry and dehydrated skin. The thick texture of the product melts into the skin moisturizing it deeply and replenishing the lack of moisture.
The product contains Chamomile and Calendula extracts to improve the regeneration processes, soothe the skin, and enhance healing, while Violet relieves tightness and Rosemary provides a toning effect. Weleda Skin Cream leaves a delicate herbal scent due to the essential oils of Lavender and Orange.

I bought this cream specifically for the winter season because I have dry skin. It has a thick, rich texture and a good ingredient list. I mostly use it in the evenings. The scent is somewhat unique but pleasant. It absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a residue.
In winter, my hands become very dry. I received a sample of this cream and initially liked it. However, after purchasing and using it consistently, I didn't see any results.
I spent a long time deciding which cream to choose and eventually went with this one and its light version. Here's what I was looking for: an everyday cream, suitable for morning use under makeup and nourishing enough for evening use. I have combination skin with pores and blackheads. This cream is best used in the evening to help with peeling, or in the morning on the cheeks. I'm waiting to test the light version for morning use, and I'm pretty sure it will be perfect.
For those sensitive to fragrances, this cream has a strong scent initially, but it fades after application. The scent is somewhat herbal. Overall, it's an excellent cream for winter, suitable for both hands and face. It didn't cause any breakouts, even during my cycle, so I think it's great!
For the winter season, this cream is excellent. It has a thick, rich texture that the skin seems to absorb completely. The scent is light and herbal.
The cream is wonderful.
This cream solved my problem with dry skin. No more flakes and dryness. I use it in the morning and evening, and even as a base for makeup, my face shines not from oily shine, but from its moisture saturation. I also don't know if it's related to the application of this cream specifically, but I have had significantly fewer breakouts. Therefore, I recommend it to all my acquaintances, especially during the winter period. The ingredients are great, very satisfied.
The cream is of high quality and reliable, effectively protecting and restoring the skin of the hands after exposure to wind.
Good cream for autumn-winter.
The cream is good. It moisturizes effectively. However, it is too thick for my liking. I find it uncomfortable to spread it on my body and even on my hands. I have decided to switch to Weleda Light instead.
A good all-purpose cream.
This cream is not bad, but it is not suitable for facial skin. It feels very uncomfortable on the face. I use it for my hands. During the winter period, it works wonders in healing irritations and dryness on the hands.
The cream effectively softens and eliminates peeling, but it is definitely not suitable for the face as it clogs pores excessively.
An excellent multi-purpose rich cream. The scent is superb!
The cream is very good, it moisturizes well, and I really love the herbal scent.
This cream is only good for applying on heels. It is very greasy and has a disgusting smell that reminds me of a bonfire. I can't understand how anyone can put it on their face.
The first cream stole my husband! I had to order more. We like it! It's thick! And we also like the smell!
I have very sensitive and delicate facial skin. And this cream suited me perfectly, leaving my skin smooth and moisturized.
The cream is very rich, but it works. You can't wash it off with just a simple cleanser, you need to use micellar water. However, it doesn't clog the skin and has a pleasant scent. It is perfect as a night mask. It is great for cold weather and dry sensitive skin.
I bought it a long time ago, but only with the cold weather did I realize how powerful it is in nourishing. For daily use on my hands, personally, it feels a bit greasy, but if there are dry, windy areas on the body, it works perfectly. It contains a lot of oils, so it doesn't absorb quickly, but I feel comfortable with that rather than having dryness on my feet and hands. I recommend it as a SOS remedy for maximum moisturization and softening.
I really like products from this brand, but in my opinion, this cream is extremely greasy. It's even impossible to wash your hands properly after using it.
I am satisfied with the cream! The ingredients are excellent.
I have been using this cream for 28 years and I have dry dehydrated skin. It was a wonderful gift from a friend. At first, it seemed very dense, which was unusual. However, after applying it, my face became shiny but without any film, and it felt comfortable, nourished, and protected. I used it overnight, and in the morning, my skin felt soft and rejuvenated. This cream is great for dry skin during the cold season. After about a week or two, I noticed some clogged pores, but it turned out that I hadn't been cleansing my skin thoroughly enough. So it's not related to the cream itself.
Not just a cream, but a real find!
This universal cream is perfect for my skin! It's a must-have for cold weather, as it moisturizes and softens my hands.
I also use it for chapped lips, as it helps heal cracks.
I used to have a problem with dry and rough skin on my elbows, but not anymore thanks to this cream!
It is also recommended for use as a face mask, as a primer before applying makeup, and even for treating split ends.
The cream has a light and pleasant scent. There is a small size available, which is convenient to take with you on the go! Dermatologically tested.
I use it in a very small amount for my hands throughout the day, when dish soap or something else has dried out my skin. In general, in the morning and evening, I use the same company's butter.
I highly recommend it. It works wonders for hand skin. It effectively combats dryness.
I have been buying this cream not for the first time, and it is simply amazing. It moisturizes well and removes roughness from hands, especially after working in the soil. I highly recommend it to everyone and I use it constantly myself. It is very thick and economical. My rating is 5 stars.
This cream moisturizes very well. I have problem areas on my legs in the summer. Skin Food is my savior. The price of this natural cosmetics brand is pleasant. I highly recommend it. It will also save those whose hands become flaky from constant use of disinfectants and alcohol.
This product provides excellent moisturization and absorbs quickly. I use it for my hands and it is suitable for the autumn-winter season.
I bought this for my teen daughter who has eczma - which flares up in the dry heat of the indoors winter. Skin food is rich creamy and absorbs well while leaving a good barrier to protect the skin. It smells great and isn't greasy. Would 100% recommend.
A great cream for quickly moisturizing very dry skin. However, it does leave a greasy shine after application. Minus one star for the high price of the cream considering its small size.
The texture of this cream is more like an ointment, very thick and viscous. But oh, the effect it has! I apply it after showering before going to bed, and in the morning, my skin feels hydrated and somehow firmer. Especially during the dry winter period, when my skin tends to become very dry, it works wonders. It eliminates flakiness. I wouldn't apply it in the morning, though, as I think it may not work well with makeup.
I once took a sample of this product. I didn't really like it. It felt very greasy and, for some reason, didn't provide any effect, neither nourishment nor hydration. The scent is herbal with a hint of lemon, very intense. I like it. I love Weleda products, but not all of them have worked for me.
The cream is not bad, but it's not worth the money, I think!
To be honest, I am very disappointed! I bought this product to apply on my face at night, but it is too thick and feels like plain oil on my face. The smell is repulsive, I wouldn't even consider using it on my hands. Maybe it works well for dry skin, but for me, it's just too much! I'll only use it on my legs!
I really like the pleasant herbal scent of this product. The texture is slightly thicker compared to the Weleda Calendula in the yellow tube. After applying the cream, my skin feels pleasant to the touch and smooth. I bought it specifically for my face.
The cream was very helpful last winter. It saved my severely cracked hands after trying out six other creams. It has become my favorite and now an indispensable little cream.
I chose this product because of its "natural composition". I use it several times a day for my hands. It effectively eliminates dryness and minor flaking. It has a strong herbal scent, but it doesn't bother me or make me uncomfortable.
I absolutely adore this cream and use it for my face. It has a very thick, I would even say dense, texture. At first, it reminded me of an ointment. It is quite difficult to apply on the skin, but that doesn't bother me at all. It is absolutely perfect for my dry skin and smells delicious. I also use it for facial massages.
I read recommendations from beauty bloggers and decided to try the La Roche-Posay Baume AP+M as a replacement.
Pros:
+ I liked the scent, it's interesting and herbal.
+ It's natural! And it seems to be vegan.
+ It's affordable, and the small size is convenient for trying it out.
+ It works decently for hands. You wait a bit, endure the stickiness and heaviness, and then it absorbs.
Cons:
- The scent is strong, not for everyone. Those who prefer subtle, light scents like vanilla/coconut might not be satisfied.
- The texture is extremely thick. It's impossible to spread the cream after squeezing a pea-sized amount. You have to repeat it a couple of times just to cover the outer layer.
- It has a sticky texture. I thought of applying it on my body (as recommended), but for my dry skin, it's a terrible experience. It's unpleasant and difficult to apply, and I don't want to moisturize my skin with it before bed because everything will stick.
- It doesn't heal dryness on hands. At the beginning of winter, my boyfriend and I used Lipikar from La Roche-Posay because we ran out of hand cream. It turned out that it healed dryness and cracks perfectly. We've been using Skin Food for a couple of months now, and there's no reaction at all.
I didn't like the cream, in my opinion, it's overrated. It doesn't moisturize my dry hands well. The smell is not very pleasant. For this price, there are better options available.
The cream is not bad, it is greasy but absorbs quickly. My skin is dry and I haven't noticed any super effects yet. I plan to use it for facial protection during the winter period.
Great cream. During the winter period, my hands crack from the cold, and this cream really works! It heals and softens them.
Nourishing. If used on the face, only use it at night, as the first 30 minutes feel like a greasy mask. In the morning, there is no dryness. It also nourishes the lips quite well. Overall, it is not bad, but not an amazing find either.
This cream is amazing! I have extremely dry skin on my hands, and I constantly have many cuts near the cuticle and around the nails. I have tried many different creams, including this brand, and Skin Food is definitely the best. If I apply it before bed, my hands are noticeably in good condition by morning. The only downside is that the cream is very thick compared to others, so it does get used up quite quickly.
Skin food is a must-have for winter and for those who have problems related to dryness and flakiness of the skin on the body. I usually apply it on my hands, fingers, elbows, and sometimes even on my lips - it works quickly and flawlessly, providing excellent nourishment. After using it, my skin retains moisture better, and any flakiness or dry patches disappear within a few days. I haven't tried it on my face. I used to buy this cream for myself in Germany, but this time I got it for my sister - she is also very satisfied. I'm curious to try other products from this series.
Thick and nourishing, this product provides good hydration. However, the scent may not be to everyone's liking.
This cream is thick and perfect for cold weather. It has a pleasant herbal scent.
I bought this product not from my favorite makeup brand, as the purchase was spontaneous in search of a nourishing cream for dry hands. But I will leave a review for girls who are unsure whether to buy it or not.
In the end, I use this cream for my face. To give you an idea, I have extremely oily skin, and no mattifying skincare or foundation has ever worked for me. I couldn't live without blotting papers and I've tried everything - lightweight fluids, gel textures instead of cream - nothing worked. In the summer, I could only rely on mineral powder because my face would turn into a mess two hours after applying makeup... But I took a risk and applied the Skin Food cream on my face... And WOW!!! My skin is practically matte!!! About 90% matte... I forgot what it feels like to have a matte face. I am extremely satisfied. Girls with a similar problem like mine, give Skin Food a try on your face, it might work for you like it did for me... The scent of the cream is herbal, lanolin-like. I apply it as suggested below, by warming it up in my fingers. The cream absorbs excellently. I am very pleased with it.
I bought this product based on the advice of numerous bloggers, both local and foreign. I have used the entire tube and I really liked it!!! I will definitely buy it again. I used it on my face, as I have oily and often dehydrated skin. After using this cream, my skin feels magical! The effect is long-lasting. Normally, my pores get clogged easily, but I have never experienced that with Skinfood. It's quite surprising considering how thick the cream is. It's a bit difficult to apply and spread evenly. I used it at night or during winter days. Those with less oily skin will appreciate this cream even more. Once applied, the cream feels absolutely weightless on the face. The scent is strong and herbal, but not artificial. It dissipates after 5 minutes. I highly recommend giving it a try.
The effect was amazing for me. If applied to dry areas, it helps overnight. Even my husband liked it, and his hands are rough.
I expected the cream to have a thinner consistency. It is perfect for dry skin!
This cream is excellent for dry areas of the skin. It has a refreshing scent of lime and herbs. It is highly effective, delivering outstanding results. I highly recommend giving it a try!
I call it the "emergency cream". It's especially relevant in the spring. It does a great job of dealing with dryness. It has a thick texture, I agree, and it's difficult to rub it in. I apply this cream to my face with light, patting motions (in fact, I apply any textures this way).
The cream is rich and nourishing, everything seems normal, BUT!! How can there be alcohol in the composition of a cream for dry skin?! I chose the cream based on reviews, tried it out, but it seems like it dries out my already dry skin even more. It moisturizes temporarily. And the scent is absolutely overpowering.
I wanted to write a positive review about the product but was a bit shocked by the price. I bought it two days ago with a discount, as I expected, for 317 UAH. Now it costs 271 UAH. Well, 46 UAH is not that little... It's frustrating how prices fluctuate so drastically. You wait for that discount, and in the end, the price drops even more the next day than when you bought it on sale. Anyway, I am satisfied with the cream. I highly recommend it to everyone with dry skin. The delivery was very fast.
I have very dry skin on my feet, very dry indeed. And only this cream helps eliminate the dryness. I really like it.
The cream is multifunctional and has a wonderful scent. It can be used to moisturize heels under socks, protect hands from the cold, nourish elbows and lips, and even smooth a tiny amount onto hair tips. However, Lanolin and wax are not the best ingredients to regularly apply to the entire face. If your skin barrier is compromised, it can clog pores in the long run. Therefore, it is best to use it only on small dry patches.
The cream reminds me of honey in terms of how it applies and spreads, but it overall absorbs quickly, which is what I expected from a cream with protection against unfavorable environmental conditions. After the slight stickiness disappears due to absorption, my skin feels velvety and delicate. Overall, I am quite satisfied with this cream for the price.
This product nourishes the skin well. I use it as a night cream when my skin needs rescue from dryness. It has a pleasant scent too.
The best product for winter dry skin for me, now in its second year. A special must-have for the mountains! I bought it in both large and small sizes, specifically the small one for trips :) Thank you, Weleda, for this invention!
