SURF’S UP!How is this small company making a big splash in the cosmetics industry

FLEMINGTON, N.J. -- In the world of cosmetics, we’ve all heard the big names like Loreal, Maybelline and Neutrogena, but you may not have heard yet about a small, new New Jersey company called Jersey Shore Cosmetics who is making some pretty big waves in the natural cosmetics Industry of late. A visit to the website at www.jerseyshoresun.com will introduce you to their whole line of non-toxic products. I am sure you will be as amazed and delighted as I was to see interesting products like chocolate soap, sea kelp and geranium hair gel, and Matcha Green Tea lip balm! But the back story is as interesting as the products!

I sat down with CEO of Jersey Shore Cosmetics Jacquelyn Quattro last week for an interview and started the interview by boldly asking her, "How does someone get started in the cosmetics industry and how can you even think you can compete in that industry that has been so dominated with big brands for so long?" Her answer was simple, "Because we are different! Our products bring a fresh, all natural perspective to this market that was very much in need of it and once people began to discover the true value and quality of our products, they just kept coming back for more. We have only been in business for a little over two years and have already sold millions of products, so we know we are tapping into a great need! Consumers want to see more truly all natural products in the marketplace.

I continued to press her, “Fresh? All natural? Come on, everybody says that…but we all know that cosmetics are rife with perfumes and waxes.” No,” she said adamantly, “Jersey Shore Cosmetics truly formulates pure, non-toxic alternatives to mainstream cosmetics. In fact, Jersey Shore Cosmetics has ranked higher than several of the top brands with The Environmental Working Group (EWG.org) who rates brands, with regard to health risks related to toxins and harmful ingredients in products. Our products really do not contain ANY toxic ingredients…no artificial colors, preservatives or artificial fragrances. Jersey Shore Cosmetics products are even pigmented and scented with natural ingredients like flowers, plants, minerals and essential oils. We are reef/eco friendly and a PETA certified cruelty-free company."

As I learned more about her background and inspiration for the cosmetics line, it all started to make so much sense! Jacquelyn, grew up on a farm in the very rural pinelands region of southern New Jersey and learned her trade in skin care and makeup by working with many high end brands early in her career at local Department stores.

"Having been brought up as a “farm-girl” I was used to fresh air and a natural way of life. But working to sell these products early in my career at the department stores, I understood that there needed to be some changes made with the products which we put on our bodies because so many (most in fact) contained dangerous toxins, parabens, synthetics and petrochemicals. Often I could not even wear what I was trying to sell to the store’s customers due to my own body’s negative reaction to the chemicals in the cosmetic products. That is what inspired me to go in search of natural cosmetics…and when I could not find what I wanted and needed to fulfill my own needs, I decided to make them myself!

Jersey Shore Cosmetics started with a line of sunscreen for children and another for adults in 2012. I did whatever I had to do to raise the money I needed to develop those early products that year, including selling many of my own possessions on Ebay. But I believed in what I was doing and knew that other people would want this all natural alternative too when they found out about it. We sold over 100,000 units of the sunscreen that following summer due to getting high ratings from The Environmental Working Group (EWG.org) on safety and effectiveness of the products. As the sunscreens gained notoriety for their effectiveness and began selling successfully, (Jersey Kids and Jersey Shore Cosmetics sunscreens are voted #1 by Livestrong.com) I branched out, next developing a line of all natural, petro-free, parben-free lip balms. People like them for their silky feeling, but we have found that they are also being worn as fragrances by our customers because they smell so delicious! Our lip balms come in wonderful and unusual scents like Magnolia, Lilac, Plumeria, Honeysuckle, Chocolate, Rose and Lavendar, Matcha Green Tea and Coffee Bean! Our Jersey Kids brand has nine fun, organic flavors, including grape, pear and lemonade. We have nearly 30,000 positive reviews on our certified organic Mongongo nutrient dense lip conditioners, which come in vanilla coconut cream, blackberry patch and mandarin green orange & ginger scents. They are all natural, USDA certified organic and deeply nourishing.

There isn’t room to tell you about all of the products here, but take a minute to visit the Jersey Shore cosmetics website at www.jerseyshoresun.com. You will be glad you did!
