Editor’s note: this post is from our archive. The original Holistic Organic Skin Food has been refined into the brand’s current Universal Moisturizer; that’s the closest current Amazon pick to what we wrote about.
Dr Alkaitis‘s Holistic Organic Skin Food is the moisturizer that converts even committed conventional-skincare users.
What’s in it
A long list of organic, cold-pressed plant oils and botanical extracts — argan, rosehip, sea buckthorn, chamomile. The formula is so densely packed with actives that you use less product per application than you’d expect.
How it wears
Rich texture but absorbs surprisingly well. The botanical scent is real — not synthetic ‘fragrance’ — and dissipates within minutes. Skin reads as nourished without any greasy after-feel.
If you want clean skincare that performs at the level of conventional formulations, this is the bottle to start with.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Dr Alkaitis Organic Skin Food?
A whole-food, dark-green plant-based balm packed with superfood concentrates — algae, sprouts, herbs — designed to nourish and revitalise skin from the surface in. The formula doubles as nightly moisturiser or 15-minute mask.
How do you use Dr Alkaitis Skin Food?
Smooth a pea-sized amount over clean, damp skin at night. For a brightening mask, layer thicker, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then massage in or tissue off. Pair with a gentle hydrator if your skin runs dry.
Is Dr Alkaitis worth the price?
For lovers of organic, whole-food formulations with sensitive or stressed skin, yes — it is more concentrated than mainstream luxury balms. Casual users will find equally good hydration in lower-priced botanical balms.
Where can I buy Dr Alkaitis Skin Food?
DrAlkaitis.com is the most reliable source. Spirit Beauty Lounge and The Detox Market stock the brand in the US; specialty natural-beauty boutiques carry it in Europe.
