A breathable shield for faces exposed to cold and wind
Weleda Cold Cream is a protective face cream for dry skin exposed to cold, wind and harsh weather. It is based on sweet almond oil, peanut oil and natural beeswax, which leave a protective yet breathable film on the skin. This film helps keep moisture in and shields the face from the elements, so skin stays soft and comfortable. It is a natural and organic formula, ideal for winter sports, outdoor work or long walks.
The texture
A rich, balm-like cream that warms on contact and spreads into a thin, protective layer. It feels nourishing, with a light natural scent from essential oils.
Who it suits
- Dry skin that feels tight in cold weather
- Skiers, hikers, cyclists and outdoor workers
- Cheeks and nose that redden in the wind
- Anyone who likes natural, organic formulas
Worth knowing before you buy: it contains peanut (arachis) oil, so avoid it if you have a peanut allergy. It also contains alcohol and natural fragrance. It is too rich for oily skin; in that case, a lighter moisturiser works better.
How long one tube lasts
A 30ml tube used once or twice a day on the face lasts about a month, longer if you only use it for outdoor days.
