Lip balms
👉 Lip Balms
My favorite Everyday Lip balms are the Flavors Pomegranate, Strawberry 🍓and Cherry🍒!!!! They are part of my daily routine!!! And I simply cannot live without them!!! Every time I run out of them I literally start crying because without these lip balms or “ChapStick’s” I feel incomplete! No joke! I take them everywhere I go. I looove the flavor of each.. And I legitly(yes I made up a word) eat them when I put them on my lips and I cannot help myself because they are Soooooooo good! Maybe that’s why I run out so quickly😁!!!!!!!!
I loveee! The scents they give out and its the reason why I tend to start eating them!! Lady bug Jane is no joke the best lip balm I have ever tried. Not only does this lip balm heal my lips and by heal I mean restores my lips from me constantly pulling off the lil skin on my lips… Its an anxiety thing a lot of people do unconsciously.
But it makes my lips look fuller and gives out this clear shine.
On top of that my lips feel amazing!!!
Lady bug Jane products are currently only in a few Sprouts at the moment!!! But if you cannot find them order online its completely worth it!!! I stand by LBJ all the way because I 💖LBJ
I still need to try all the flavors and will eventually buy them all!!!! But for now I’m stuck on my Strawberry, Cherry and Pomegranate favs!!!

About
Kaeng Raeng
Thank you for your loyalty and for trying Kaeng Raeng! Our customers are the foundation of our business and the reason we are where we are today. You are our advocates, ambassadors, and friends; thank you!
I started this company five years ago with a single blender in my one bedroom apartment in downtown Palo Alto. I was working long hours as an advisor to natural products companies and hated how unhealthy I had become. I started experimenting with raw vegan diets and created cleansing smoothies in my kitchen. I knew what I had created was special (because it worked); so, in true Silicon Valley fashion, I posted about my weight loss, renewed energy, and better skin on Facebook. Several men and women, people just like you, asked if they could join me in jumpstarting a healthier lifestyle.
I created Kaeng Raeng Cleanse to provide an accessible, healthy, delicious, and FILLING natural cleanse product to the market. I was sick of how tired and gross I felt with my awful diet of processed, artificial foods and decided to embrace the culture of health and wellness so ubiquitous in Northern California. I found doing the Kaeng Raeng cleanse exhilarating and liberating. I could really taste my food. I was finally aware of what I was putting into my body.
I named the company Kaeng Raeng, pronounced kang-rang, which means “be healthy, be strong” in the Thai language. I continue to be fascinated with Thai’s cultural cuisine focused on the vegetarian lifestyle (Phuket, Thailand has the largest vegetarian festival in the world). KR is truly a product that empowers you to find your best health and inner strength. Although we have a Thai name, KR is 100% made in the USA.
Over the years I found great partners like CNN health expert Dr. Melina Jampolis, Kim Barnouin, author of Skinny Bitch, who officially endorses the cleanse, and the inspiring Lauren Conrad who endorses our Detoxfoliant scrub. We brought on staff one by one, updated our packaging, adopted a dog-in-chief, moved into a warehouse, and launched new lines. But I’ve never lost sight of the original goal of the company: to provide our customers with high quality, affordable cleansing products.
No I’m not a stick-thin model or a hippy. Kaeng Raeng is not owned by a Wall Street bank or a foreign corporation. I’m just an entrepreneur who used to have trouble staying healthy, and I found a kick ass way to always look and feel my best. I’m writing this so that you know who we are, and what we stand for. Today, we’re launching new and exciting cleansing products every quarter, including our brand new vegan body care line.
Kaeng Raeng is a privately owned corporation based in the San Francisco bay area. Our supplements are made in a certified GMP FDA regulated facility for your health and safety and all of our body care products are hand made in small batches right here in California. As a small business we’re committed to growing sustainably and helping our customers get healthy in a safe and natural way. It might surprise you to know that as CEO, I personally read many customer emails, so if you’ve got questions or suggestions, please tell us. We’re always listening!
I hope you love Kaeng Raeng products as much as I do. Thank you for your business.
xoxo

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
INGREDIENTS & SUPPLEMENT FACTS
Cleansing Clay
2oz
Draw out impurities and revitalize your skin with KR Cleansing Clay: your facial in a jar! Life & Style Weekly calls our clay a “Miracle in a Jar”! KR Cleansing Clay is a unique formulation of two highly absorptive clays and activated charcoal, an absorptive carbon that can attract and hold 200 times its volume in impurities, making it the perfect ingredient to help draw out toxins. High end spas charge several hundred dollars for these specialty masks, but now Kaeng Raeng has brought the spa to your home! KR Cleansing Clay contains powerful botanical healing properties, mineral rich exfoliation, and luxurious essential oils which help to improve circulation and calm irritated skin.
How to Use:
Apply liberally to clean, dry skin. Allow 10 minutes to dry completely. You may notice a light tingling sensation while drying.

Zabana Essentials Glow Stick
Zabana Essentials Vegan🌱 & Cruelty-Free 🐰
About Zabana Essentials:
Welcome! My name is Shanell Edwards, I am the founder of Zabana Essentials (Pronounced: Zab-Ana Essentials), located in San Diego, California. It is my mission to offer Pure 100% Natural & Vegan Cosmetics. Zabana Essentials got its start when I began my quest to find affordable natural-hypoallergenic bath and body products that would not irritate my sensitive skin. I was a college graduate, attempting to start my career in the workforce and was on a tight budget like many and found it difficult to afford many of the well-known natural products on the retail shelves. After reading labels and realizing that I had some of the natural ingredients already in my kitchen, I decided to begin researching and experimenting and found the answers to my quest were right at my fingertips.
It is now my goal to offer affordable Natural – Vegan – Human Friendly – Cruelty Free Cosmetics that are not only nurturing for the skin, but enjoyable, attractive, and smell great! I’d like to be able to reach consumers who may not fit the stereotypical natural products consumer of the past, but people just like me. People who are seeking healthy, non-intimidating alternatives, for their everyday lifestyle.
What does Zabana Mean?!?!?!
I often hear “What does Zabana mean?”, “That’s a unique name.” Zabana means Savannah in the Native American Taino dialect. What is special about a Zabana to us? A Zabana is a grassy plain eco-system that may contain an abundance of herbaceous plants that lend benefits to us humans. For centuries therapeutic oils have been extracted from natural plant matter to promote good health and well-being. All Zabana Essentials products are of plant derived origin, and every formulation we use the essence of herbs, whether it be through the use of dry herbs or essential oils, herbal or vegetable based body oils and butters. I believe it is vital that we use the nutrients provided to us by mother earth, as we can find an abundance of benefits using what has been provided to us.
Thank You ZE💖
