PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Kabana’s Green Screen®, with an SPF rating of 15 scores high for its all-natural ingredients: Eldorado Springs Artesian Water, Lanolin, Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, Jojoba Oil, Mango Butter, Soy Lecithin and Essential Oil. These are used in concert with the broadest spectrum UVA & UVB FDA-approved sunscreen, zinc oxide, at a concentration of 20%. The zinc oxide is specially manufactured to be transparent when applied yet maintain high performance SPF 15 protection. Contrasting with synthetic chemical sunscreens, Green Screen’s zinc oxide mineral content cannot be absorbed through the skin. Its rich tropical butter moisturizers and naturally-effective antioxidants enhance skin healing after sun exposure, further preventing sun-induced skin damage and premature aging.
Complementing its product quality, the Kabana consumer education program does much to dispel marketing-induced consumer myths on sunscreen use, posing serious factual challenges to the “added health protection” of products whose sun protection factors exceed SPF 15. For example, SPF ratings above SPF 15 are largely a marketing gimmick since SPF 15 reduces UV exposure 93.3% whereas SPF 30 reduces UV exposure 96.7%, an increase of only 3.4% despite doubling of the SPF number.

Company Profile:
Kabana Skin Care
Located in Boulder, Colorado with its 330 days of sunlight and high altitude, it seems you couldn’t choose a better place to devise high performance sun protection products. Enter Kabana Skin Care.
Created by Erik Kreider MS MBA, an ex-pharmaceutical scientist who became dissatisfied with synthetic-chemical mass-marketed skin care products, Kabana was launched in March 2004. After considerable label reading and ingredient research, Kreider determined that most mass-produced skin care products are mixtures of synthetic chemicals that have little or nothing in common with the skin’s biochemical structure. He ordered an assortment of natural raw materials, largely of tropical origin, and began experimenting with formulae specifically designed to mimic the skin’s innate moisturizing chemistries. After a great deal of empirical observation, Erik developed the first viable iterations of the Kabana Crème™ formula. Kabana’s business ethic is modeled with transparency focused on enhancing the quality of life for customers, primary raw material producers and social and ecological environments.
