ABOUT
CALIFORNIA
NORTH - Quality Skin Care And Fragrances For Active Man
California North - A
cosmetic company based in Sausalito, California,
was founded in 1990 by Jim Miller, a retail executive
involved in the cosmetic and personal care business, after his research
continued to show that men were looking for high quality skin care
products, priced realistically, and made specifically for them.
The lack of specific
men's skin care products contributed to their development strategy, and
further laid the groundwork for expansion into their hair care, shave
care, fragrance, sun care, and appellation spa products.
The first seven
products, made for shaving, after shave, and shower, were introduced
only after extensive "real world" testing. The line was
specifically designed to serve active men who were exposed to the rough
outdoor climates of Northern California. The demanding tests on
mountain climbers, mountain bikers, and sailors helped to define the
function, ingredients, and quality of their products -- all of
which help counteract the visual effects of sun damage, aging,
environmental, and other life-style factors.
Their commitment is very
simple. To provide men (and women) with the highest quality, most
consistently effective products to keep your skin and hair healthy,
looking good, and feeling wonderful.
Good grooming is what
their products contribute to, and why clients are loyal to California
North. Developed carefully to combat the rough outdoor elements of
Northern California’s wind, sun, and salt air, they are an authentic
men’s skincare brand, used broadly by women, a compliment to their
formulations.
They
specialize in products to suit your
lifestyle wherever the elements challenge your skin and hair. They use
effective botanical extracts to further enhance the formulas, and
generally use very light citrus botanicals to mask chemicals, which do
not interfere with your favorite fragrance. Their high quality products
can help to condition the skin improving it‘s texture and feel,
contributing to anti-aging.
"Everything we
make
in skincare is made for facial skin, expanded to use on full body. Men
don’t want to think about dead skin cells, or cosmetic approaches to
personal care products. We developed products to simply work hard for
you, and the success of our products when used in a regimen is visible
to you and to others. Good grooming is what are products contribute to,
and why clients are loyal to California North. Developed carefully to
combat the rough outdoor elements of Northern California’s wind, sun,
and salt air, we are an authentic men’s skincare brand, used broadly by
women, a compliment to our formulations."
