Meet the Founders - KARIN & STEFAN
Karin and Stefan share a deep appreciation for plant-based skincare and a belief that the skin thrives when supported by gentle, effective ingredients. Surrounded by Austria’s alpine landscapes, they draw inspiration from the resilience of mountain plants like edelweiss. Together, they create a skincare line that blends tradition with innovation: natural formulations that are vegan, simple, and effective, with a focus on skin barrier health and long-lasting radiance.
Why they chose Edelweiss Extract
The nutrients of edelweiss are a valuable source for skincare. As our largest organ, our skin communicates with the outside world and protects us from environmental influences. It therefore requires special care.
Karin says “Delicate in stature and robust in nature, the edelweiss withstands extreme weather conditions such as sun, snow, and cold in the high mountains. To protect itself and ensure its survival, this delicate plant produces unique components.”
“The nutrients of edelweiss are a valuable source for skin care. As our largest organ, our skin communicates with the outside world and protects us from environmental influences. Our skin therefore requires special care.
With the active compounds of the graceful edelweiss, we have the opportunity to strengthen and care for our skin with pure natural ingredients. It soothes stressed skin, strengthens its protective barrier, and increases its resistance to external influences. Pampered skin begins to radiate. Whether youthful or mature, every skin type benefits.
Antibacterial agents have a soothing effect. The high tannin content protects and firms the skin. Flavonoids protect blood vessels. Phenylpropane derivatives stimulate cell renewal. Signs of ageing are reduced and tired skin is energised.”
