It gently cleanses the body and hair with particular care for the eyes. Thanks to the precious almond and sesame oils, it leaves the skin soft and velvety and makes the hair easy to comb.

Pediatricians and midwives recommend the use of cleaning products in the baby's bathroom only after 6 months of life.

For the bath of little ones, products such as Calendula Bath or Creamy Bath are therefore suitable.

Marigold is a plant to which Weleda is very attached, in fact she has grown it in her gardens for 80 years and has been present in her children's skin care products for 50 years. It is a flower with heliotropic behaviour, meaning that it follows the movement of the sun from east to west and blooms continuously from spring until late autumn.
Marigold is widely known as a medicinal plant with important beneficial properties for the skin and, given its delicacy, particularly for that of children. The notable presence of flavonoids in fact gives it emollient , soothing and healing functions but it also has antiseptic and antibacterial properties . According to a holistic approach to health, calendula helps the human organism to restore balance.
Thanks to its calming and soothing effect, calendula is particularly suitable for the skin of newborns and children as it helps to develop the protective function of the skin.

Who is Weleda?

Since 1921 Weleda has been producing natural cosmetics by exploiting the properties of hundreds of medicinal plants, an experience that today leads it to be synonymous with quality and professionalism in the field of organic and ecological cosmetics and at the forefront in attention to environmental sustainability and maintenance of biodiversity.

Ethics Weleda

Weleda carries out its work with an important guiding objective, namely the use of resources, raw materials, packaging, energy and water, in a sustainable way in order to guarantee adequate living conditions for future generations. But the sustainability that Weleda takes care of is not only environmental, but also social and economic by recognizing fair remuneration and establishing long-term contracts.

The quality of Weleda cosmetics

The quality of Weleda cosmetic products can be found in every single process and manufacturing phase, but what we would like to underline is that in all cosmetics only vegetal raw materials from organic and biodynamic cultivation, or from certified spontaneous harvesting, are used. As Weleda declares, out of respect for man and nature, absolutely no perfumes, mineral oils and synthetic substances such as paraffin, silicones, parabens or GMO raw materials are used. The wonderful fragrances that enrich the products come only from essential oils carefully extracted from the plant. Given the ethics and respect for man, Weleda carries out tests on animals.

Cultivation of medicinal plants

Weleda directly grows approximately three-quarters of the medicinal plants it uses for its cosmetic products in its magnificent and immense gardens scattered throughout the world. Here the gardeners carry out a complex job which is to help nature where it needs it, for example by recreating the natural habitat for certain species. Cultivation therefore always takes place with the organic and biodynamic method, this means that no pesticides or chemical fertilizers are used but that the land is helped only with the composting technique and by adding manure and herbs. In these fantastic places, important biodiversity conservation work is also carried out (given the enormity of cultivated plants) and at the same time the creation of habitats for insects and small fauna which in turn keep parasites away. The rest of the plants come from areas selected for certified spontaneous harvesting or from suppliers.

Processing

All the manufacturing processes necessary to create cosmetic products, such as distillation or maceration, take place taking care to maintain the maximum quality of the raw materials and obtain maximum effectiveness from them at the same time. Even in the production phases Weleda shows its attention to sustainability by increasingly increasing the use of renewable energy, trying to reuse condensation water for example and increasingly reducing its use per kilogram of finished product.

NATRUE certification

Weleda products are NATRUE certified which is the first internationally recognized quality mark for natural and organic cosmetics. This mark guarantees that:

• the ingredients are natural and organic;
• the production method is sustainable;
• there are no synthetic colors and perfumes;
