I actually borrowed this from a friend when I was experiencing very dry skin inbetween my fingers, I found that it worked amazing to get rid of the dry skin but it left the rest of my hands feel a bit oily. I’ve tried using less and less to achieve softer feeling hands without the oily feeling and unfortunately I can’t. I know this product works amazing for other people but it might not be the one for me. I do however find myself reaching for it in the winter when my hands get so dry beyond the help of a less rich hand cream.

I do love the skin food range but just not a big fan on how it sort of leaves a bit of a greasy oil texture on your skin. But anyway it's super good for your skin and is so good for moisturizing !
Tips: Paper towel or toilet paper and just dab the excess grease from the moisturiser off your hands lightly 😊
This product does work and left my hands moisturised, but I found it a bit greasy feeling for my liking. I can be quite fussy with handcream, and I like one that absorbs and feels silky rather than greasy - if that makes sense! I am also realising that I don't love lanolin in products. The smell isn't for me, and I don't think my skin reacts as well to it as some people do.
This hand cream is great, it's fast working and doesn't jus have to be used on hands. The packaging is bad though, because it breaks easily
I recently tried this to try and combat some extra dry skin on my legs, elbows and hips that my usual cream couldn't quite manage. This moisturiser is an intensive product and is in fact so thick that sometimes I found it hard to get out of the tube! Within a couple of days I could see my skin improving and within the week it was mostly cleared up. The natural herbal scent is really pleasant. The only reason I wound;t buy this product again is because the tube isn't big enough for me. I have many problem areas and I went through the tube within a couple of weeks which I can't afford to do. If they made it in a larger format like a tub I'd definitely buy it!
Easily absorbed, does not feel heavy on the skin. Not greasy. Really enjoyed the refreshing, not overpowering smell. Best to get on special as can be expensive, but then you get what you pay for🤔
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!
Soothing and rich hand cream. Works well on dry hands - no nasties, made my hands feel lovely and smooth without flaring my sensitive skin.
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.
Tips: If you get dry hands, try this! You only need to use a little bit because it is so thick.
This product is thick and creamy and nice but I sure do not like the smell. It's more like an embrocation of some type.
The product itself makes my skin feel hydrated and soft, and is nourishing as it says it is. I was given a small 10ml tube, which is enough for a lot of applications considering it doesn't take much, but I wouldn't buy it because of the smell. Shame though, it works well as a moisturiser.
Tips: Apply to clean hands (and/or feet).
