Weleda Pomegranate Creamy Body Wash

October 25, 2010

If you love the other products in Weleda’s pomegranate range you will love this one too – it’s fruity, nourishing and pampering!

“Weleda’s organic pomegranate comes from the fertile valleys in the coastal region of Icel in southern Turkey. This thriving fair trade farming partnership ensures Weleda has a top quality supply of organic
pomegranate, and guarantees the farmers a reliable income. Harvesting begins just after dawn, the
crop is hand picked, carefully and laboriously, to ensure the best quality fruit”.

We recently reviewed Weleda’s pomegranate hand cream, which had quite a grown up, sophisticated smell – the body wash smells divine and is alot fruitier than other products in the range.

The body wash is free from ingredients like SLS, so it doesn’t foam up like most shower gels. Using a bath puff I managed to work up a silky lather and I really didn’t need to use much because it contains so many oils: sesame, sunflower and pomegranate seed oils. The body wash left my skin feeling soft and it made a nice change to use a nourishing shower gel that didn’t have a ‘heavy’ smell.

A big bonus for me is that the body wash is completely biodegradable. With recyclable packaging too, it means this is a very low waste product all round,

“The genuinely natural cleansing agents in this Weleda body wash are especially mild, are made from sugar and coconut, are quickly and entirely biodegradable and ecologically-sound even for aquatic life”.

A fantastic product for tired skin and dreary days, it leaves your skin feeling soft, pampered and clean.

Weleda’s creamy body wash is also available in other fragrances: Citrus, lavender, wild rose and sea buckthorn.
