Why we focus on Clean Beauty!

Clean Beauty bei SUMMERSAVER

In a world full of cosmetics with thousands of ingredients, it's hard to keep track. "Clean Beauty" isn't just a trend—for us at SUMMERSAVER, it's a promise: of transparency, effectiveness, and the mindful treatment of skin and the environment.

What does Clean Beauty mean?

Clean Beauty stands for products that:

  • free from superfluous, questionable or unnecessarily synthetic additives (e.g. parabens, silicones, microplastics)

  • They contain active ingredients whose origin and effect are traceable.

  • carefully formulated – with ingredients that are skin-friendly, well-tolerated and as natural as possible

Special focus at The House of Legs

Especially with our The House of Legs products – which are specially developed for heavy legs and stressed tissue – clean beauty was particularly important to us. The skin on the legs is often stressed, reacts sensitively, and therefore needs formulations that are effective yet gentle and well-tolerated. That's why we consistently rely on clean, highly effective ingredients such as escin, red algae, hyaluronic acid, and plant-based pentylene glycol – free from mineral oil, silicones, or other unnecessary additives.

Our active ingredients – selected & effective

At SUMMERSAVER, we carefully select our ingredients to ensure that Clean Beauty isn't just a marketing buzzword, but a genuine practice. Here are some highlights from our active ingredient portfolio:

  • Pure escin (from horse chestnut) – reduces swelling, promotes vascular strength and helps against the feeling of tension in the legs.

  • Red algae – a marine multitasker: protects against oxidative stress, strengthens the skin barrier and has a calming effect on congested tissue.

  • Hyaluronic acid – one of the strongest moisturizers, improves elasticity and regeneration of the skin.

  • Caffeine – promotes microcirculation, has a stimulating effect and helps to reduce feelings of heaviness.

  • Panthenol & Squalane – soothing, moisturizing, skin-identical. Ideal for stress, redness, and irritation.

  • Jojoba oil – absorbs quickly, is not greasy, protects, nourishes and balances the moisture level.

  • Coenzyme Q10 – antioxidant, regenerating and protects against free radicals.

  • Tocopherol (Vitamin E) – skin protection booster, supports cell regeneration, strengthens the barrier.

  • Gleditsia Triacanthos Seed Extract (Honeythorn) – plant-based smoothing agent with lifting effect, improves elasticity and skin structure.

  • Pentylene glycol – a modern moisture booster with protective function; our pentylene glycol is of plant origin , not mineral oil, and therefore particularly skin-friendly.


Why we specifically choose Clean Beauty

1. Skin health & compatibility

Our skin is our largest organ and a filter between us and the environment. Ingredients that are irritating, comedogenic, or unbalanced can lead to inflammation, stress, and, in the long term, problems like sensitivity or acne. With Clean Beauty, we aim to minimize these risks and offer skincare that soothes rather than irritates.

2. Transparency & Trust

We want you to know what you're putting on your skin. No voodoo, no secret formulas – just clear information about every active ingredient (origin, effects, benefits). This builds trust – and enables you to make an informed decision for more conscious skincare.

3. Impact instead of hype

Clean beauty is not an end in itself. For us, the crucial question is: Does it work? Are there noticeable results – for example, less heaviness, smoother skin, less tightness? Our active ingredients are not only "clean," but also evidence-based and effective.

4. Environment & Sustainability

Natural or plant-based active ingredients, short transport routes, no animal testing and as few harmful chemicals as possible – that is our idea of ​​cosmetics that are not only good for my skin, but also for the planet.

What Clean Beauty looks like in practice at SUMMERSAVER

  • Formulations without parabens, silicones or microplastics.

  • Vegan and cruelty-free – we use ingredients from plant sources or skin-identical lipids.

  • Skin-friendly textures – serums, creams and serum structures that absorb quickly, moisturize without being greasy.

  • Real results instead of exaggerated promises – we combine active ingredients in a targeted way, e.g., escin + caffeine + red algae, so that not just one factor works, but overall heaviness, tension and visibility problems are alleviated.

Conclusion

Clean Beauty is not just a concept for us – it's a commitment.

At SUMMERSAVER, we believe that skincare should be effective without complicated, questionable ingredients. Your skin deserves ingredients you can trust – and that's exactly what we focus on: natural or skin-identical active ingredients, transparency, and visible skincare results.
