The Weleda Baby Calendula range has always been a favourite among parents who care deeply about what touches their baby’s skin. In 2025, that love was officially recognised when Weleda Baby Calendula Face Cream and Weleda Baby Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash each took home GOLD in the Green Bambini Baby Awards. This year’s awards saw hundreds of natural and eco-friendly baby products put to the test by a panel of real parents — and Weleda came out on top in not just one, but two major categories: 🌿 Best Organic Baby Skincare Product – GOLD🏆 Best Green Baby Body Wash – GOLD It’s a remarkable achievement — and one that reaffirms what so many parents already know: when it comes to caring for delicate baby skin, nature really does know best. 🏆 The Story Behind the Green Bambini Baby Awards The Green Bambini Baby Awards celebrate excellence in sustainable, ethical, and natural baby products. Every product entered is tested and scored by a panel of parents who use them in real family life — no labs, no filters, just honest results from mums and dads who care about safety, purity, and performance. This year’s judging process was especially competitive. With more families turning to organic and cruelty-free choices, only products that combined gentle ingredients, effective results, and sustainable ethics could claim a top prize. That’s exactly where Weleda shone. 🌼 Why Parents Love the Weleda Calendula Range Weleda’s baby range has long been adored by parents who want something pure, kind, and effective. At the heart of it all is Calendula, a golden marigold flower used for centuries to soothe, heal, and protect the skin. Every product in the range is created with natural and organic ingredients, carefully sourced and dermatologist-tested for even the most sensitive skin. 🌿 The Hero Ingredient: Calendula Calendula is known for its calming, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties. Weleda grows its own Calendula organically in biodynamic gardens — ensuring every blossom is packed with goodness and grown in harmony with nature. From seed to shelf, every stage of production respects the environment, the plants, and the people involved. That’s the Weleda way. 🥇 Weleda Baby Calendula Face Cream – Gold Winner Parents have fallen in love with this gentle yet deeply nourishing face cream — and so did the judges. The Weleda Baby Calendula Face Cream was awarded GOLD for Best Organic Baby Skincare Product, standing out for its rich yet non-greasy texture and ability to protect even the most delicate baby cheeks from cold winds, drool, and daily life. Formulated with: It’s free from synthetic preservatives, fragrances, or mineral oils — so you can trust that every dab is pure care, straight from nature. Parents praised how it keeps their baby’s skin smooth, hydrated, and happy — and many even confessed to borrowing a little for themselves! 🛁 Weleda Baby Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash – Double Duty Gold When a product can simplify bath time and make it gentler, it’s a winner in every sense. The Weleda Baby Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash, winner of Best Green Baby Body Wash, does exactly that. With a mild, tear-free formula, it’s designed to cleanse baby’s hair and body without stripping away natural oils. Infused with organic Calendula and Chamomile, it leaves the skin clean, soft, and perfectly balanced. The scent — subtle, natural, and soothing — makes every bath feel like a moment of calm connection between parent and child. And the eco-friendly bottle? 100% recyclable, of course. 🌿 A Brand Rooted in Trust and Nature Weleda has been crafting natural skincare since 1921, long before “organic beauty” became a trend. For over a century, the brand has stood by its founding principles: using biodynamic farming, ethical sourcing, and holistic health to bring out the best in nature. The Weleda philosophy is beautifully simple: “In harmony with nature and the human being.” That’s why their baby range is trusted by generations of families worldwide — and why awards like the Green Bambini Baby Awards feel less like a surprise and more like a celebration of everything Weleda stands for. 💛 Parents Speak: Real Reviews, Real Results Many parents who tested the products described how their baby’s skin responded almost instantly — smoother, calmer, and visibly healthier. “My baby’s skin is so sensitive, and this was the first cream that didn’t cause redness. The Calendula Face Cream is magic in a tube.” Another parent commented: “The Shampoo & Body Wash smells divine and makes bath time so gentle. I love knowing I’m using something pure and safe — and my baby loves it too!” These genuine experiences are at the heart of Weleda’s success. It’s not just about skincare — it’s about trust, care, and connection. 🌍 Why These Awards Matter In a market overflowing with “natural” labels, awards like the Green Bambini Baby Awards make a real difference.

It began as a United Nations initiative, and maintains strong partnerships with UN organisations. Such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the BioTrade Initiative of the Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The 7 principles of the UEBT standard Discover the source of our raw materials Fragrant lavender from Moldova The fields in Moldova are filled with the bright purple blossoms of fragrant lavender. At the edges of the fields, mobile distillation units process the freshly gathered plants into essential oil. Only about twenty years ago, there was hardly any market for lavender in Moldova. Today, it provides us with large amounts of lavender for the production of Weleda natural skin care products. It’s wonderful to see what’s happening in the area: our partner has added fish stocks to a small lake near the fields, cut back overgrown reeds and set up beehives. It’s not just the quality of the soil that is important here, but also its biodiversity. Only then is nature healthy. That’s why we are currently working with the villagers to help them convert to biodynamic agriculture. Precious sandalwood oil from New Caledonia The sandalwood oil we use as a fragrance in some of our products is sourced from one of the islands of New Caledonia in the South Pacific. The oil is extracted from the wood of the trees. Because sandalwood is particularly rare, each tree is tagged with a GPS sensor to prevent illegal harvesting. The people treat this valuable natural resource with care. To test whether the tree is mature enough for harvesting, a tiny hole is drilled into the wood. Then the hole is closed again with resin, so the tree can continue to grow if necessary. We were there when the trees were harvested, visited the wood mill and oil distillery and observed as fragrant sandalwood oil was extracted from the soft chunks of wood. Arnica wild collection What is likely Europe’s most abundant source of arnica can be found growing wild in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. Weleda is helping to protect this resource and support the local people. A meadow alone usually doesn’t produce much for a farmer. But if arnica grows there, the meadow offers an additional source of income, giving the owner an incentive to leave it in its original state. These wild plants are harvested and processed according to strict sustainability and quality standards, which local pickers learn about in training workshops. Ratanhia from the Andes Every year a family in Peru makes the long journey up to the Andean Plains to harvest Ratanhia plants and roots for Weleda. Of course we have a permit for certified wild collection; it’s important to us that we also protect this plant species. How much of the plant is there? Have the soil conditions changed? Has anything changed since last year? Everything is carefully observed and documented. To determine which of the wild meadows should be harvested, we consult with experts from local universities and nature conservation organisations.
