My Weleda Kid
My son, Ben, is such a critic these days! Today he told me that I have too many Weleda products in the bathroom. It got me thinking about how Weleda is a friend throughout my day. I use our products morning and night, and whether Ben knows it or not, so does he! My favorite product, Salt Toothpaste, did take some getting used to, I admit. But I have been using it now for 18 years. I tell customers who call us that they may find it the taste strange at first, because it’s very different than most conventional toothpastes. But once you start using it regularly, you won’t be able to go back to the other stuff. And anyway, have...

Your Skin and the Change of Seasons
In the fall, when the temperatures drop and wind and rain strain our skin, it may need some extra pampering. I talked to Patricia Pol, the esthetician and expert in natural skin care at our spa in Palisades, NY, about how to best prepare our skin for the change of season. Here’s what she had to say. Me: How can the change of seasons affect my skin?Patricia: The change of season always affects our skin. While summer air is more humid and moisture-rich, the cold, dry air in fall and winter leaves our skin dehydrated, flaky and rough. You might notice more dry spots, especially in the T-zone (the area around your nose, chin and forehead)....

Product Spotlight: Our New Cleansing Line
Honestly speaking, cleansing and toning have never played a big role in my daily facial care. For a long time, I thought a good facial cream (and my beloved Almond Soothing Facial Oil to remove eye makeup) were enough to keep my face looking its best. But my view has changed since my internship with Weleda started. After being with the company through the launch of the new Cleansing Line and sitting in on a few Weleda trainings, I’ve come to realize that cleansing and toning are essential steps in an effective facial care routine. They truly provide the basis for healthy, beautiful skin. Ever since I stocked up on the new Gentle Cleansing Milk,...
