Review of Weleda Almond Moisture Cream
By Irene M.
I love absolutely everything about Weleda Almond Moisture Cream apart from one thing, it’s smell!
The ultra light texture of this Weleda cream combined with rapid absorption make it a joy to use and I was both surprised and impressed to find that such a light textured cream could be so hydrating, especially on my exceptionally dry skin.
My usual early morning routine is to wash my face with a gentle soap and then apply a light moisturising /hydrating gel underneath my regular moisturiser. However, such was the excellent performance of this cream that even when I omitted the gel, my face still felt hydrated, and not taut. It also provided an excellent, non-greasy, base for my tinted moisture foundation cream.
Used as a night cream after applying my usual cleansing cream, this product again performed well.
The presentation and packaging of the Weleda Almond Moisture Cream I found excellent. The hygienically sealed tube is ideal for dispensing exactly the desired amount of cream whilst simultaneously avoiding contamination. It’s compact size also makes it convenient to pop in a handbag if a ‘top up’ might be desired.
The pastel pink Weleda packaging theme I find pretty and feminine and I like the combination of clearly presented product information on the box, with further details on the in-pack leaflet.
The performance of this product on my skin I could not fault - the one, big negative, was the smell of this cream. Unfortunately for me, the smells of certain beauty and household products will trigger an instant headache and sadly, this otherwise excellent product falls into such a category. However, even ignoring my sensitivity, I have to admit that I found that the scent of this product most unattractive. Although I appreciate this product is formulated only from pure and natural ingredients, the only word I can find to describe this smell is ‘chemical’ (nonsense, I know)! (My husband, incidentally, described the smell as ‘yeast’)!
In every area other than scent, I would rate the Weleda Almond Moisture Cream product 10/10.
The Weleda Almond Moisture Cream (£8.95 30ml) and other Weleda products are available at Naturisimo.com
