Product Spotlight: Cold Cream
Imagine a cream that could protect your face from icy winter air and keep your skin smooth, moisturized and beautiful. Sounds like a dream? It isn’t! Formerly known as Everon® Face Balm, our re-launched Cold Cream—coming to a retailer near you this month—is the one thing you should definitely not be without this winter.

Product Spotlight: Pomegranate Body Oil
In my last blog, I wrote about the benefits of Rosemary Hair Oil and how it pampers your hair. But nourishing natural oils aren’t just good for your hair—they’re also beneficial for your skin! Especially now, with the November air growing colder, our skin needs extra nourishment to make it through the winter healthy and beautiful, despite heated office buildings and harsh winter winds. Weleda’s Pomegranate Regenerating Body Oil nurtures and smoothes our skin, while protecting it from skin-damaging free radicals. Its mix of organic jojoba, sesame and sunflower oils, combined with powerful organic pomegranate seed oil, makes it...
