Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
As busy women, mothers, and entrepreneurs, both Marion and Janet wanted convenient, effective, ecologically friendly products that were good for themselves and good for their family. That's why they started Jamar Labs. Their mission is to bring to market natural health and beauty products to keep families clean and protected.
Our doctor approved, 100% natural cotton, biodegradable, paraben, and phthalate free Wipe Your Feet, Wipe Your Face, and Wipe Your Hands have been produced to meet that need. And we've added beautiful designs to compliment any occasion. These wipes are convenient to use and are available in both an at home 30 count size as well as a 5 count travel size that you can add to backpacks, gym bags, purses, briefcases etc.

We developed Wipe Your Feet when we noticed that everyone was wearing flip-flops and taking them off and going barefoot at their yoga/pilates studios. As well as going to bed with not-always-washed-feet. As we developed our products, we also observed that other moist towelletes were made of non-biodegradeable products with parabens and phthalates and parents needed separate products for themselves and their children (including my new granddaughter). So we wanted a line that would be cost effective, safe, efficacious, and fun to use. Additionally, there were way too many products on the market that were anti-bacterial. These products may provide a sense of protection, but in the long run they do more harm than good to our immune systems.

In other words, we started Jamar Labs to celebrate the connection between mother nature and human nature
