Weleda Skinfood Hand Cream

Weleda Skinfood is magical stuff! It is supurbly thick and so nourishing for really dry hands and dry areas on the feet. The smell is amazing, quite herby and fresh. I always have some of this on hand.

This is a current staple I've been using for weeks. I like that it's natural and not too expensive. It's kind of thick and leaves an emollient layer so it's best used at night. I apply it after I apply Trilogy's Ultra Hydrating Hand Cream and the combo works really well on my eczema prone hands that have been washing dishes, cleaning and cooking through out the day. You only need a tiny amount so a tube lasts a long time.

I love this hand cream, it really is skinfood as soon as you apply it your skin just eats it up. It's so thick and creamy, a little really does go a long way. You can tell by the way it feels and smells that it's made from all natural ingredients and good for you!

Honestly had forgotten how much I loved this till I remembered the picture. You should buy 2 of these its the best hand cream. The smell is nurturing and you instantly know there are no crappy ingredients its natural its light its nourishing and Im gunna find more now, so should you.

Personally I wouldn't use it as a hand cream unless I am doing nothing or about to go to bed because I like to use a good amount and really work it in, so it is a bit greasy. But in saying that I absolutely adore it! Working in a job where I'm always washing my hands with harsh hand soaps this perks my skin up amazingly. Growing up I always used aloe vera gels for sun burn but one day all I had was my Skin Food...I will never go back, it is amazing how much gets suck up by your poor parched skin and instead of spending ages being red I went brown(yes brown! not normal for me)very fast. Best product!!

This is the most brilliant product to use as you are going to bed. It is so thick and creamy, it takes a while to soak into your skin (hence why I use it at night) but man does it do the job. I love weleda products, I use a lot of their homeopathic products and love when their skincare works for me too. I use this pretty much everywhere on my body at some point during the year. After a night soaking in your skin feels a-ma-zing. A must for everyone with dry skin in need of some love.

This is a beautiful product. I like the natural smell to it. It is quite thick so I would use it at night time as you need time for it to absorb. Also really good to use on your feet and elbows. Great for men too!

I absolutely love this, the name is perfect, it is defiantly more than just a moisturiser for the skin, it feeds and nourishes and lasts for ages. I use it morning and night on my hands, feet and elbows and love the scent and the feel of it. It is really thick but it sinks into the skin really quickly. I certainly notice the dryness in my skin coming back when I stop using it so I always make sure I have plenty of it around.

I was lucky enough to win a 30ml tube of this in a Health Post competition on Facebook. I've been entering their comps for years so I was thrilled to finally win something. It is also the first time I've tired anything from Weleda. I'm not sure why I haven't tried them before as I do like using natural products.

This little green metal tube is the perfect handbag size. The white plastic lid is easy to screw on and off. The metal tube does mean that is is quite difficult to get all the product out near the end. Also I did go through this size fairly quickly as I reached for it often when I was travelling.

It is a very thick, opaque cream with a slight yellow tinge. You don't need much of it but it does drag when you apply it, so using more makes it easier to spread around. It is a little greasy until it sinks it. It smells absolutely amazing! It has a very strong lavender scent with a hint of citrus. And this is no artificial lavender scent so you know it's all natural (my mum's cat is scared of lavender and she takes off as soon as I get it out of my bag lol)

Weleda describe it as a whole body cream but I have only used it on my hands. I imagine it would be quite difficult to apply to your body and face. I suffered really dry hands over winter with a patch of eczema on my little finger. This helped keep my hands soft and moisturised and kept my eczema under control. I really enjoyed using this and will buy it again.....if I ever get through my stash of hand creams. I can see it becoming a winter staple.

I won a travel sized tube of this magical product and I'm so glad I did!! It is one of the only things that make my hands feel hydrated after doing the dishes!

The tube is made of metal and to be honest they're not my favorite design, I never feel like I get all of the product out no matter how hard I try. This particular tube is a lovely bright green and it has a white lid. The product inside is deliciously thick and does not move off of your hand!

The smell is quite interesting and I can't quite put my finger on what the smell is, but it's nice. It's not feminine so even the manliest men can use it without feeling like they're girls. I use maybe a pea sized amount, if not just slightly bigger than a pea. It warms slowly and makes my hands feel so lovely and soft, and it appears to absorb almost instantly.

It says it's an all over body cream, which I suppose it could be but because of how thick it is, I wouldn't use it everywhere, just on places that get it rough like my feet, knees and elbows. I don't know if I'd repurchase but the more I use it the more I am tempted!
