Please note that ingredient lists are sometimes subject to change from the manufacturer (especially when brands are making improvements!). We do our best at straål to keep the lists current. We cannot be held liable for changes between batches or changes without notice. For this product, Skin Food is 100 years old and have kept the same formulation for the most part. Also note, as with many international brands, there can be formulation differences among geographic batches (there are many brands like this and is common practise); hence always important to check your packaging–at straål we generally verify per the packaging as well.
If we could, we would add 10 of our CULT badges to this cream! Skin Food is our ultimate, never-fail go-to. Beloved all over the world by celebs and models for decades (and for good reason). Thanks to team Weleda SA for bringing the ultimate cream to our vanity, our handbags and even our bedside table.
