Rejuvenate your skin while harmonizing its natural cycle.

Weleda skin care products are designed to remind our body of there natural rhythms. The skin has many cycles and processes of its own. It is the largest organ of the body. It is important for detoxification and the transformation of sunlight into vitamin D. Most skin care products that are available in the United States have a list of chemical ingredients that are alarming and potentially dangerous to our health, many of which have already been banned for some time in Europe due to the risks they pose.  Many ingredients even in so called 'natural' skin care products are questionable and can be damaging to the skin.

Luckily there are some truly natural and organic products that are enjoyable to use and effective in harmonizing the processes of your skin.

Weleda products use high essential fatty acid seed oils which are very similar to your skins own oils. They wick into your body the very nutrients you apply in using them. Weleda products are supplements for your skin, because whatever you put on your skin you ingest. So why put chemicals and other indigestible ingredients on your body, when you can apply medical plants and EFA's, emulsions of flowers, seed oils, roots, essential oils, water and many other nutrients that enhance your senses in the direction of natures healing potential. 

The key to attain the hydrated glow of healthy skin, is to nourish it with what it needs to function 'naturally'.

Cleansing

When cleansing your skin, you do not want to feel tight and dry afterward. That is the result of stripping your skin of its oils. It is a stress on your skin and will dehydrate you, thus accelerating the aging process. Most cleansers use surfactants and detergents in them that give you that 'clean' feeling, while they strip your skin and destroy the acid mantle of the delicate facial skin. Weleda cleansers use high essential fatty acid seed oils and are creamy and gentle, but effective for clearing the days debris. 

Toning

Why tone the skin? Toning is part of the layering process that hydrates the deepest layer of the skin, and helps with the elasticity of the skin. The extracts in Weleda toners are tonics helping the PH of the skin, nourishing and refreshing. Most conventional toners use far too much alcohol and can be even more drying.

Moisture creams / Serums

The Weleda moisture creams are the serums of the line. They are layered after the toner and before your day cream. They are supplements actually giving nutrients to the deeper layers of the skin. Again, assisting the body in its cycles of producing the protective top layer of the skin.

Day Cream

The day cream is the protective layer. The top layer that does nourish, but mostly protects the outer layer of your skin from whatever toxins it might be faced with.

Night Cream

The night cream is layered after cleansing and toning at night. It is the most intensive nourishment of all the products. Night time is when the skin repairs itself. Your night cream is a deeply supportive layer to help you wake up with glowing, regenerated skin.
