Sometimes my skin just needs a break from the strong acne and anti-aging treatments I’m always throwing at it. And even though it’s not sensitive and can take it, I like to focus on comfort sometimes rather than repair.

That’s why I decided to try Weleda’s Wild Rose Collection. I had heard good things about Weleda from some of my friends, and I knew it was an all natural line, so I couldn’t wait to experience it. I started off with their Wild Rose Facial Care Kit because it included four travel-size products for me to try (btw, this is perfect way to try a new line without committing to a ful-size product).

The kit included the facial cleanser, toner, day cream, and night cream. The cleansing lotion was very nice and soothing, not quite the consistency I thought it would be, it was a runny liquid rather than a lotion, but as far as its moisturizing properties, it was definitely more like a lotion. To tell you the truth, I often have a hard time believing these gentle, lotion-like cleansers can really clean my skin. Maybe it’s because it feels so soft and comfortable afterward. But actually, this cleanser really did the job. The dirt and oil were gone and yet my face didn’t feel tight or dry.

After cleansing I used the toner, which continued to soothe my skin, yet also gently tightened my pores. It’s definitely moisturizing and also refreshing, exactly what I’m looking for in a toner.

Of course the day and night cream continue with the soothing and moisturizing properties of the other products. The day cream was very comforting, but did tend to be a little heavy for my oily skin. It sat on the skin throughout the day, which left my skin feeling great, but a bit too shiny. And when I applied makeup over it, it tended to shine through my foundation and powder after a few hours. I think it would be really great for someone with normal, combination, or dry skin.

One cool part is that the day cream is refreshing too. Not sure how it does it, but it actually feels cool on the skin, which is wonderful when you’re trying to wake up your face in the morning.

The night cream was a bit heavier, like night creams should be, and felt very nice on my skin. It lasted all night and made my skin feel soft and wonderful in the morning.

What makes the Wild Rose Collection special is its key ingredient. Organic Rose Seed Oil is what soothes, calms, and moisturizes the skin. Plus, it’s packed with antioxidants to fight free-radical damage and essential fatty acids to plump the skin, lessening the appearance of fine lines.
