Clean Beauty: 5 Products With Natural Ingredients Which Rock 2023

From protective serums to luxurious eye creams, there are many products we'd love to have in our bathroom this year - but the following five are definitely high up on the list!

Less chemicals, more nature: that is the philosophy of clean beauty brands.

Back to nature in cosmetics

Kangaroo paw flower, kukui nut tree and witch hazel... you wonder what they are? Our new favourite plants! They convince as valuable ingredients in skin care products or so called clean beauty products.

But what does it actually mean when we talk about "Clean Beauty"?

"Clean Beauty" is a term used to describe products that are free of potentially harmful chemicals. Brands that develop such products rely on highly effective ingredients of natural origin. Plant extracts become real superheroes here. Nature gifts us with active ingredients that are a treat for our skin. Thanks to the expertise of the product developers, the result are products that are good for our skin, harmless to our bodies and at the same time more sustainable for the environment than some conventional products.

It is a philosophy that has become a big trend in recent years. Because, in essence, clean beauty brands promise us exactly what we want from our skin care: high efficacy that we can enjoy carefree. Furthermore, these type of products are simply suitable for everyone; but especially people with sensitive skin can benefit from cleaner products, as natural ingredients usually irritate the skin less than chemical ones.

Small amount, big effect: clean beauty brands use plants with particularly effective active ingredients.

Five Clean Beauty products we want to test in 2023

1. Pai Skincare Virtuous Circle Exfoliator

A gentle exfoliating experience for the skin: Jojoba oil and the fruits of the Kukui nut tree are the main ingredients of this product.

2. Stella McCartney Beauty Restore Cream

Firmer, plumper and smoother: a moisturiser that nourishes and regenerates the skin with birch sap, cherry blossom extract and hyaluronic acid.

3. Kora Organics Berry Bright Vitamin C Eye Cream

This eye cream promises high effectiveness thanks to numerous certified organic ingredients: vitamin C, kangaroo paw flower, red ginseng, quinoa... The skin around the eye area is said to be brightened and small wrinkles are supposed to be reduced.

4. Dr. Hauschka Clarifying Steam Bath

Definitely not an ordinary product: a deep-cleansing and pore-opening facial steam bath. It contains extracts of daisy, nasturtium and witch hazel as well as essential oils.

5. Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Intense Serum

Unfortunately we tend to forget the importance of protecting our skin from air pollution. With this antioxidant and moisturising serum - which contains parsley seed, tocopherol and red algae as its main active ingredients - it becomes a simple routine!
