Skin Food  

A true celebrity favourite

We introduced a totally natural, replenishing cream in 1926 that is still going strong today. Skin Food is an enriching balm to soothe and comfort skin that’s battered by daily stresses - from poor diet to pollution. It’s our best defence against wind and weather, and great for dry or rough hands that need a treat, or thirsty skin anywhere on the body, especially dry patches such as elbows.

Skin Food has also become a travel essential for many jet-setters to restore radiance to lacklustre skin. It is ideal to protect and replenish skin blasted by drying air conditioning on the plane whenever you’re travelling, or on the ski slope in biting winds.

For years Skin Food was an industry beauty secret, but in the past decade it has become a firm favourite with many high-profile celebrities. The enthusiastic fan club includes:
