The Weleda product Victoria Beckham raves about

Posh Spice herself took to Instagram Stories this week to rave about one of her favourite natural skincare products, Weleda Skin Food.

“I haven’t talked about this product for quite a long time but I really like it, especially this time of the year when I am trying to prolong the tan that I’ve got over summer and your skin can go super, super dry," Beckham said as she applied the hydrating body cream. 

"This is really great, it keeps your skin super hydrated and moisturised. It’s really, really thick. I love how it feels all over the body. It’s a really great product."
