Does Weleda Use Microplastics?
The short answer
We found no flagged synthetic polymers in any Weleda product with a readable ingredient list. Of the 50 Weleda products on Open Beauty Facts with a readable ingredient list, 0 listed at least one flagged synthetic polymer — 0%.

What this is. Ingredient-label data from Open Beauty Facts (snapshot 2026-07-31), not laboratory testing. Coverage is crowdsourced, partial and Europe-weighted, so this is 50 of the 115 Weleda entries in that database, and US formulations often differ. A flagged ingredient is not automatically harmful — a gel thickener and a solid microbead are both synthetic polymers and are not the same risk.
Nothing flagged
None of the 50 Weleda ingredient lists we could analyse contained a flagged synthetic polymer. That is a genuinely good result and rare in this dataset. It still only covers the products contributors have added, so check any individual product you rely on.
