Your face is not the only thing that needs a daily moisturising routine
In partnership with Weleda
Your body needs it too
As we approach the Autumnal months, its all about the jeans, slouchy jumpers and long boots, covering our limbs from the world and we dont feel the need to moisturise our bodies like we would in the summer…
But our skin (being the body's largest organ) still needs to be kept hydrated, as cold weather naturally dries skin out more and at a much faster rate. So here is the answer if you suffer from perennial dry legs and elbows, come rain or shine.
We recommend reaching for Weleda’s cult Skin Food Body Butter.
Weleda (established in 1921 as a pharmaceutical laboratory) are world-leaders in certified by NATRUE natural beauty products. This means everything they produce uses organic ingredients and is free from synthetic fragrances, dyes and silicone oils.
This Body Butter is developed for very dry and sensitive skin, with a mix of super charged botanical extracts, such as calendula and chamomile to instantly soothe and organic shea and cocoa butter to deeply nourish even the flakiest of skin.
The formula is fast-absorbing and non-greasy so you can layer the butter on post-shower and pull on those winter trousers (or pj’s) without any sticky residue on the skin. Your body will be left deeply hydrated with any irritation soothed and skin protected from drying out.

Sarah Barnes is Junior Beauty Writer and Production Assistant at Marie Claire UK.
After attending a military school growing up (we are talking camo print, crawling through the mud) Sarah craved a creative outlook with fashion and beauty always being a huge draw. With a degree in Fashion Journalism from The University For The Creative Arts, Sarah was introduced into the world of beauty, health and print after publishing her own university magazine, which was an investigative project into the world of Paleo and Primal Wellbeing. Her love for production came after moving to Vancouver Canada, working on the sets for Toyota commercials as a production assistant.
Four years later, she is now Marie Claire UK’s Junior Beauty Writer and Production Assistant. Combining both her love for writing and production, having worked her way up from intern. With each day being different Sarah can be found writing beauty features, reporting backstage at Fashion Week on the latest beauty trends and working on Marie Claire’s various beauty awards and video content. Always on her face beauty wise; Urban Decays 24/7 Eyeliner in Roach, Elemis Daily Defence Shield SPF 30 and Estee Lauders Radiant Double Wear Concealer.
Sarah’s job also allows her to travel the world for Marie Claire’s beauty shoots, working on the shoot production and assisting with booking the best models and photographers. Highlights include shooting at sunset in the Lanzarote desert, from a speedboat in Mauritius and along the wild beaches of Sri Lanka- maybe that army training was useful after all?
