Our skin is exposed to environmental influences, stress, and an unbalanced diet and because of this it can become sensitive, dry, and irritated. The almond is full of minerals and vitamins and the oil is similar in structure to the outer lipid layers of the skin and can be absorbed easily. The very high content of unsaturated fatty acids can strengthen the hydro-lipid mantle of the skin and protect it from water loss. The vitamin E in the almond is a known antioxidant that fights free radicals and thus counteracts the ageing process of our skin. Irritated skin is well protected and can recover and find its way back to natural beauty. Almond oil is one of the most valuable skin care oils for helping to soothe irritated skin, enveloping it with a protective layer.Sensitive skin needs the most delicate and supportive care, and that’s why Weleda has formulated this rich daily-use cream with almond oil.
