Very recently, my skin went through a period of dry spell. My face crinkled like paper when I smiled and my skin was breaking out and peeling like crazy. This usually happens when I have flu and am losing a lot of fluids. So even though I'm always getting stuff from iHerb which I really don't need (Heh.), I was really thankful that I carted out Weleda's Skin Food.
Formulated with nature's goodness, Weleda's Skin Food is a remedy for dry and rough skin on the face and body. It contains extracts of Viola, Chamomile and Calendula, which were all traditionally used to soothe and repair skin. And Into the Gloss called it the La Mer dupe. Yes, this is the reason why I bought this. :D
Texture-wise, this is thick and creamy like really good yoghurt... Which also means that it's not quite suitable as a daily moisturiser for most of us in Singapore (Which is not in China, btw.). But if your skin decides to turn into a desert, then yes. This is 'La Mer'. This is magic.
I basically spammed this at night, leaving two off-white streaks across my cheeks where drought was the worst. But of course, I went easy during the day. My skin drank this up quickly and within a week, the crinkling and peeling disappeared. Now that my skin is okay, I use just a tiny bit because well, given the formula, too much does indeed clog pores. :\ BUT I'm still keeping this by my side because #ageing #matureskin. Heh.
Weleda's Skin Food retails at $20 and can be found here on iHerb.
