We take a holistic approach to personal care. In our understanding, looking after your body serves not only beauty but also health. In order to do so we develop products designed to support a healthy balance between body, mind and spirit. Drawing on the wisdom and virtuous properties of nature, our philosophy is to combine the effects of natural active ingredients to strengthen the skin’s own powers of self-healing. Our lead plants give special character to each of our unique skincare collections. Lead plants are emblematic of our needs in different life phases and contribute to the effectiveness of our products. Pomegranate, for example, has regenerating and antioxidant properties. We believe that the life processes of nature and of humans are interconnected. Understanding this relationship allows us to harness the plant's inherent benefits.

Our natural skincare contain precious ingredients, such as natural plant oils. The products work together with natural essential oils, plant extracts and further high quality ingredients to support the overall effectiveness of our holistic formulations. Does your skin need regenerative and antioxidant support, or does it mainly need moisture? We combine different oils and extracts in order to respond to the specific needs of the skin. The oils we use in our high-quality skincare products are obtained from apricot kernels, the fruits of the argan tree, pomegranate seeds, wheat kernels, sea buckthorn or evening primrose seeds. We obtain effective extracts from a variety of plants, such as white mallow or the moisture-retaining prickly pear. Since 1926, Weleda Skin Food has been caring for people’s skin thanks to its effective formulation with extracts of organic pansy, chamomile and calendula blossoms.

We produce a variety of tinctures for use in different products. A calendula tincture, for example, is an extract of substances from either the whole calendula plant or certain parts of the plant depending on the product in which it is to be used. Our extraction methods preserve as much as possible of the plant’s inherent qualities and characteristics. The extracting agents we use include alcohol, water, saline solution and oil. To create a tincture, freshly crushed calendula plants are mixed with an extracting agent. Each step of the process is meticulously carried out in a controlled environment. This ensures that the calendula releases its substances and properties into the tincture in the best quality possible.
