1st place among start-ups: The House of Legs
The House of Legs is the young leg care brand from the makers of SUMMERSAVER. We developed it for something many women know and for which there was hardly any suitable care for a long time: heavy, tired legs and water retention. Our approach is called Functional Leg Care: care and technology that are precisely matched to each other.
- LymphGlow Leg Serum: light leg serum with caffeine, escin from horse chestnut and red algae
- EMS & Light Therapy Device: gentle EMS pulses, 3 light modes and warmth for your ritual at home
- The Ultimate Leg Cream: rich care for smoother, firmer-looking skin

3rd place in Body Care: the LymphGlow Leg Serum
In the Body Care category, our LymphGlow Leg Serum came 3rd. The serum is step 1 of our Leg Ritual and is made for anyone whose legs feel heavy and tired after long periods of sitting, standing, travelling or on warm days.
- With caffeine, escin from horse chestnut and red algae
- Can give tired, heavy legs a light feeling and make skin look smoother and more radiant
- Absorbs quickly and isn’t sticky, a fresh glow without glitter
- Ideal gliding film for the EMS & Light Therapy Device
- For sensitive skin: in a dermatological patch test with 50 participants, no one showed a skin reaction.
