Start your skincare routine with Weleda Skin Food Nourishing Cleansing Balm — a gentle, nourishing cleanser that removes makeup, dirt and daily build-up without stripping your skin.
This is not a traditional foaming cleanser. Instead, it uses an oil-to-milk formula that begins as a soft balm and transforms into a light milky texture when water is added. This allows it to effectively cleanse while maintaining your skin’s natural moisture balance.
Formulated with sunflower seed oil and the signature Skin Food botanical extracts of calendula, chamomile, rosemary and pansy, it helps leave skin feeling clean, soft and comfortable — never tight or dry.
Because it’s oil-based, it works particularly well to:
- dissolve makeup and sunscreen
- remove daily build-up
- cleanse without disrupting the skin barrier
It can also be used as a quick nourishing mask, giving your skin an extra boost of hydration when needed.
The result is clean, refreshed skin that still feels hydrated — making it especially suited to dry, sensitive or mature skin types.
SIZE – 75ml
Why you’ll love it:
- Gently removes makeup, dirt and impurities
- Oil-to-milk texture cleanses without stripping
- Helps maintain skin hydration and comfort
- Doubles as a nourishing face mask
- Vegan-friendly formula
- Made with 100% natural origin ingredients
This is the ideal first step in the Skin Food face routine — especially if you want a cleanser that cleans effectively while still feeling nourishing.
HOW TO USE
Apply to dry skin with dry hands and massage gently to dissolve makeup and impurities. Add warm water to emulsify into a milky texture, then rinse.
