A Message from Erik

Hello! Welcome to the first issue of Kabana Skin Care LLC’s monthly newsletter. To those of you who signed up for my newsletter, thanks for expressing your interest! To my other friends, I thought you might be interested in my new company. Please read on, and if you don’t want to be on this list, unsubscribe instructions are at the end.

An Introduction to the Kabana Way

Kabana creates precisely natural skin care products. Our goal is to make sunscreen easier and healthier to use every day.

We base our formulas on simplicity, using familiar ingredients that complement your skin’s structure. Our processes ensure natural nutrients and vitamins are not damaged during product creation. We make precisely natural products wonderful to use by thinking outside of tradition and common knowledge. Kabana chooses to do everything right from the start. We avoid dogma and elements of economic entrenchment, even if that means we do things the “hard” way. (Creativity makes it easier!)

We don’t use toxic synthetic stabilizers and preservatives, although they’re easy to formulate. Instead, we use natural ingredients that have multiple purposes; for example, Zinc Oxide, the active ingredient in baby powder, is a naturally occurring mineral that has superb sunscreen properties and is also antimicrobial, so it helps keep our products fresh. Read our labels, and you’ll fundamentally understand how you’re nourishing your skin.

Sustainability and corporate transparency are our ideals; we don’t take short cuts or use cheap ingredients. We source raw materials from suppliers who can traceably demonstrate how these ingredients were produced, and only support fair trade practices. If you want to know the how, where and why, you’ll be able to find that information on our website. We want our customers to know firsthand how we do things, and take confidence in that peace of mind.

Love your skin. Kabana does.™

Be a Kabana Label Reader!

Skin is your largest organ. It helps to protect you from all the nasty chemicals to which we routinely expose ourselves. Our skin is the first line of defense to chemicals such as household cleaning products like Lysol, in addition to other chemicals like motor oil or sodium lauryl sulfate in shampoo. Your skin is also alive, just like heart and brain cells, and needs to be properly nourished and protected. You probably know junk food isn’t too good for you, and most of us limit how much we eat. But we’re not very good about feeding our skin equally well. Read the ingredient labels on your favorite skin care products. Can you understand what all those ingredients actually are? Generally, we need an advanced degree in chemistry to understand ingredient number 2, much less the other 35 (Number 1 is generally water – we all know what that isJ.) If you don’t know what it is, why would you use it? How does not knowing make you feel? It doesn’t make me feel very secure, and I’m a chemist! The alternative is Kabana™, which only contains ingredients derived directly from nature that you know and understand, like cocoa butter and lanolin.

Keep reading labels, and you’ll see how becoming a Kabana Label Reader can beautify and protect your skin!

Kabana UV Protection Soap Manufacturing News!

On June 2, Erik visited Valley Products Group in Memphis TN, experts in natural soap manufacture with over 60 years of experience. (www.valleysoap.com) Valley is interested in establishing a partnership early in Kabana’s developmental process and providing expertise for scale manufacture. Valley also has extensive resources in distribution which may prove indispensable as our marketing efforts gather momentum. Those free samples should be coming soon! The soap will not be marketed under the SanSolé™ name, so look for Kabana’s new one in the near future.

Other products under development:

Kabana Crème™ – Ultra Emollient Moisturizer with Simple Seven™ Ingredients

Kabana™ High SPF Sunscreen Lotion

Spread the Good Word.

Kabana is without the large marketing budgets of competitor companies. Kabana depends upon you to spread the word about Kabana products and our Precisely Natural™ ethic. Please forward this newsletter to someone you know: your mom, brother or best friend. Erik’s working on an e-commerce website where you and your friends will be able to access Kabana products and aims to have it up and running by the end of August. He’s also planning on sending lots of samples out to anyone who wants to try these fabulous formulas. If you haven’t already taken a look, check out the current website www.kabanaskincare.com.
