Athlete - Engineered Skin Care Line from MISSION Product’s
MISSION Product’s, the first Athlete-Engineered Skincare line, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking, high-performance products.
“Athletes who have been forced to compromise with inferior skincare offerings now have an array of innovative, high-performance products, engineered by athletes, to meet their needs” said Josh Shaw, MISSION Product’s Founder and President. MISSION Product will revolutionize how athletes hydrate, nourish, restore, and protect their skin, whether they’re an Olympic hopeful, a running enthusiast or even a weekend warrior.”
Some of the world’s most accomplished athletes, including two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash, two-time Olympic gold-medal swimmer Amanda Beard, two-time Olympic gold-medal soccer player Mia Hamm, 2008 X Games Halfpipe Gold Medalist Gretchen Bleiler and extreme endurance athletes Charlie Engle and Hunter Kemper, have joined the team at MISSION Product and are intimately involved in product innovation and development.
“I’m really proud to be a founding athlete with MISSION Product. I use all of our first five products and they are outstanding,” said Steve Nash. “I am especially dependent on our foot gel, which helps re-energize my feet between the regular beatings they take on the court.”
One of the key attributes that attracted me to MISSION Product is the ability for athletes to inspire the product development and innovation process, said Mia Hamm. We’re looking forward to making an impact on the lives of future generations of athletes at all levels.
The starting lineup for MISSION Product includes a sunscreen with SPF 30 and anti-sting technology, a vitamin lip balm with SPF 20, a long-lasting anti-friction cream, a restorative foot gel and a revive body gel for post sun and wind exposure. In addition to these five products, the company has numerous innovations in development, several of which are scheduled for launch before the end of the year.
“I have spent my entire life on the beach and in the pool. When I tested the MISSION SPF 30 sunscreen, I immediately fell in love with it, said Amanda Beard. Athletes of all ages are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of skincare and sun protection, and I am excited that we can deliver these high-performance products at such affordable prices. I am convinced we will revolutionize skincare in the sports marketplace.”
MISSION Product is free of preservatives and irritants, and is animal cruelty-free. “With natural, high-quality ingredients, MISSION Product is better for your skin AND the environment,” said Gretchen Bleiler.
MISSION Product features breakthrough technology and is formulated with clinically-pure ingredients to deliver superior skincare benefits.
