Product Information

Despite containing alcohol, it never dries out my skin. Instead, it leaves my skin looking healthy, soft, and luminous! It also pairs well with all my nourishing moisturizers. I didn’t experience any irritations or breakouts with The Body Shop® Edelweiss serum concentrate. I’ve not used its previous version – Drops of Youth™ Concentrate, hence can’t compare them 😐.

The Body Shop believes that ageing is a joy and a privilege, and our job is to lift people up, helping them age powerfully, rather than wish they were in a time machine.”There's one more surprise: our recyclable bottle** is now also made from recycled glass. How can you not want it? But, for “optimum skin health” the Body Shop has teamed up with Psychodermatologist Dr Alia Ahmed who explained how “the skin and mind are deeply connected”. Whether it’s summer or winter, you can always use this serum in conjunction with your favorite light or heavy-duty moisturizers to hydrate your skin and protect it from indoor and outdoor pollution🙂.

We love the notion to destigmatise ageing in the beauty industry and wish other brands would follow suit. So, to The Body Shop, we take our hats off to you for this bold move.

The verdict: The Body Shop Edelweiss collection

Made with 99% ingredients of natural origin, our rejuvenating new Edelweiss Serum Concentrate Sheet Mask pampers your skin and leaves you with a fresh-faced glow in just 15 minutes – just ask the 101 women who tried (and loved!) our new sheet mask in an independent user trial*. I used this serum both in the hot summer and winter seasons in the UK and India (during my recent trip). The Body Shop® Edelweiss serum concentrate is lightweight and does not clog pores, so it is ideal for oily skin types. During the summer seasons, when my skin felt sweaty and greasy, this light serum did a great job. And, during the colder months, I pair it with a nourishing face mist and heavy-duty moisturizer, and I’m all good 😊 ! Despite its harsh conditions, the “resilient Edelweiss flower thrives [and] protects and repairs itself, thanks to its natural antioxidants, including Leontopodic acid, which is only produced when the flower is in distress”. The product was sent as a press gift. The views and opinions of the reviewer are independent and purely editorial.

The new name for the range is inspired by the Edelweiss flower that is “found growing in brutal Alpine conditions against extreme wind, snow and rain”. Made with 99% ingredients of natural origin, it only takes a few drops of our new Edelweiss Daily Serum Concentrate to leave skin looking smoother, fresher, stronger* and plumped with 24hr moisture. There’s one more surprise – our recyclable bottle*** is now made with recycled glass too. What’s not to love? Did you know that exposure to pollution can weaken your skin and cause issues such as dehydration, dullness, and premature skin ageing? That's why you need an antioxidant-rich serum to help you strengthen your skin against environmental aggressors, like pollution. Is The Body Shop Edelweiss Daily Serum Concentrate the one?TBLBureau Campaigns Manager Xuanyi, who has combination skin, tested it out to see if it can improve her skin texture and reduce acne scars and fine lines. But what makes our new concoction so exceptional? We’ve now enriched every bottle with double the concentration of edelweiss, which is naturally (and rather uniquely) strengthened with leontopodic acid known for its antioxidant properties. In fact, the tiny edelweiss plant is so resilient and powerful that its extract has 43% more antioxidant power than retinol.*** Pretty extraordinary, right? We’ve enriched our vegan serum with natural-origin peptides too, just for good measure. Derived from rice, peptides are known to help maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier . Our tester loved the simplicity of the design, the weightless feel of the formulas and the near scentless smell. Although we have just started our journey swapping our skincare to this select set, some results have already been shown. We’ve seen a reduction in fine lines around the eyes with the eye serum and the immediate visible results of the dead skin cells that are whisked away with the liquid peel. And we’re sure these results will only improve with time.

The properties of Edelweiss have also been shown to maintain skin barrier health, as well as smooth the skin’s surface, helping you keep a radiantly fresh face, whatever your age. That’s why Edelweiss is the beauty industry’s best-kept secret,” the brand commented. Für ein frisches Gesicht mit einem gesund aussehendem Glow im Handumdrehen einfach ein paar Tropfen auftragen.Based on in vitro scientific study conducted by DSM Nutritional Products Personal Care, FRP of Edelweiss Extract 286 vs Retinol 200 Nur ein paar Tropfen genügen, damit Deine Haut geschmeidiger, frischer und stärker* aussieht. Aber damit nicht genug: Das Konzentrat besteht aus 99 % Inhaltsstoffen natürlichen Ursprungs und versorgt Deine Haut 24 Stunden mit Feuchtigkeit.
