Skin Food Light

This stuff is great - smells magical (I love the smell of natural essential oils) and it is relaxing to put on in the evening. It is quite greasy but I like this for night time use - I wake up feeling moisturised and my skin is soft.

​I am a long-time user of the original heavy Weleda Skin Food, but sometimes it's just too rich for daytime use or warmer weather. When the "Light" version came out, I was skeptical—could it possibly deliver the same level of intense hydration without the thick, dense feeling? The answer is a resounding yes! ​Texture & Feel: This cream is a dream. It has a beautiful, whipped texture that is noticeably lighter than the original. It absorbs quickly, leaving absolutely no greasy residue, which makes it perfect for use under makeup. It provides immediate relief to dry patches without making my skin feel suffocated. ​Hydration & Results: It contains the same beloved blend of natural ingredients (including sunflower oil, lanolin, and extracts of pansy, rosemary, and calendula), and my skin looks and feels deeply nourished after applying it. It combats dryness, reduces flaky patches, and leaves a healthy, radiant glow. It’s light enough for morning use but powerful enough to heal my skin overnight. ​Recommendation: If you love the intense results of the classic Skin Food but need something that sinks in faster, works well in humid climates, or serves as a lighter, daily facial moisturizer, the Skin Food Light is the perfect substitute. It’s an essential staple in my routine now!

Absolutely love this - will definitely keep repurchasing. Apart from being highly moisturising, it's smells gorgeous - like some sort of aromatherapy smell. It works great as a smooth base under makeup (particularly if you are like me and in your late 40s, with dry skin and fine lines). I bought after seeing it rated highly in the Yuka app (which identifies bad ingredients in cosmetics - I usually use Cereve and that rated surprisingly low). I also saw a mature makeup artist use this on Instagram.

Huge fan of this product. I first came across it while being made up for a photo shoot, feeling deeply uncomfortable under the amount of makeup needed to stop me looking like a ghost in the photos. Despite that, I’ve used it ever since. It works beautifully whether I’m wearing makeup or going completely bare‑faced. I normally use the light version, but the darker green tube is just as good – I just use a little less. It keeps my skin soft and moisturised throughout the day. One small tip: if I’m wearing any eye makeup (liner or mascara), a touch of loose powder under the eyes is essential to stop it smudging on the moisturiser. With daily use, one tube lasts me around ten weeks, so I now have it on subscription. A reliable, gentle staple that’s earned its place in my routine.

A lovely cream, a little goes a long way. Can appear greasy but absorbs well. Feels nice on the skin, no reactions to it. Smells nice too.

Feels so lovely on the skin, normally alot of moisturisors cause blemish breakouts but this one is great! The smell is very soothing and fresh! Recommend as a smooth base under makeup

The best moisturiser. Always suffered with my skin and breakouts, even in my 30s, until I found this! Perfect before make up. I have use this for years and will not change. It’s the best

Always use Weleda great on mature and sensative skin, you don't need to use a lot so isn't dear, it last quite a while.

Love this it works and smells great. Repeat customer for a reason:)

Tried this out as soon as I got because every beauty article or celebrity beauty secret mentions the weleda skin.food cream. I assumed the light cream meant it would soak in your quickly..light as in a summer weight moisturizer not light as in lighter consistency. This is a high moisturizing cream despite the "light" description. I love it because we have crazy windy weather or extremely dry weather in the winter where I layer on 3 types of moisturizers so my skin doesn't feel dry. I think for me this would not be an everyday moisturizer in the summer but a once a week you need a deep moisturizering treatment type situation. In the winter I can see myself using it everyday. It greats for sensitive skin, I have felt a bit of tingling throughout the day but I think that is the actives actually moisturizering as my skin didn't get red, itchy or hot as it does when it reacting badly to a product. It does have a light herbal scent that quickly dissipates when you apply it but if you are really sensitive to scent it might be too strong for you.

Ho provato la Weleda Skin Food Light e la adoro! È molto corposa, profumo intenso ma piacevole, e idrata la pelle profondamente e subito. Perfetta per mani, gomiti o zone secche, e tutto questo a un prezzo davvero conveniente. Cosa mi è piaciuto: ✅ Idratazione intensa e immediata ✅ Texture corposa e piacevole ✅ Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo Cosa migliorerei: ❌ Profumo intenso non adatto a chi preferisce fragranze delicate Consiglio: ideale per chi vuole pelle nutrita e confortata senza spendere troppo, un vero super food cosmetico da avere sempre a portata di mano.

Es buenísima, pero solo la recomiendo para pieles de normal a seca, una piel mixta o grasa no creo que la tolere del todo bien, la recomiendo sobre todo en invierno, es un poco pesada pero las pieles secas lo agradecemos durante esta temporada.

Perfect for me in Sydney, light and moisturising. Feels great. Dewy complexion.
