On a balcony in San Francisco, it all started with a kiss... š
On June 4, 2019, Rose and I shared a moment overlooking the San Francisco Bay. It was one of those moments you donāt plan. The sun was going down. The city was glowing. We barely knew each other, but something about that moment felt bigger than both of us. One minute, we were just two people watching the evening unfold. The next, everything changed.
I didnāt know then that Rose would become my wife, my partner, my best friend, and the person I would build a life and business with.
I didnāt know that one kiss would lead us into a life of adventure, healing, uncertainty, wild dreams, and hard lessons. I didnāt know it would carry us across continents, through years of building a life together, and eventually into a work for the Amazon Rainforest.
I didnāt know our love story would become AmaSKN.
We built AmaSKN around rainforest ingredients that come from non-timber forest productsāa way to show that the forest can be worth more standing than cut down.
Because of your incredible support over the years, weāve been able to help support clean water access for families, contribute to education for Indigenous children, and partner with Indigenous women artisans through our bead project.
There have been moments of pure magic, and moments where we had no idea how we were going to keep going. But every jar of Rainforest Radiance Cream and every bottle of Rainforest Beauty Drops reminds us why we started.
Today, on the anniversary of where our story began, we just want to say thank you. Thank you for supporting our small business.
Thank you for believing in a brand built to do something different. Thank you for helping us turn a love story into something that could create beauty, connection, and real impact.
Happy anniversary, Rose. And thank you to our amazing community for walking this path with us.
āØWith gratitude,
Shane

This is the final week of our May Buy One, Give One initiative with Kits to Heart š¤
For every Rainforest Firm & Glow Set purchased through May 31st, weāre donating one care kit to someone going through cancer treatment.
Over the years, building AmaSKN has led to so many conversations with people about much more than skincare.
Weāve talked about health, family, ingredients, what people eat, what they bring into their homes, and what they choose to put on their skin every day.
One thing weāve noticed is that people are becoming more mindful about the everyday products they use, especially during more difficult seasons of life.
That has stayed with us.
Kits to Heart was founded by Sonia, a cancer survivor who turned one small act of kindness into something bigger: care packages that bring comfort, support, and a reminder that someone is thinking of you during treatment.
This initiative felt like the right way to connect what AmaSKN has always stood for: clean, thoughtful skincare, real human connection, and giving back in a meaningful way.
One for your skin. One for someone who needs care.
If this resonates with you, supporting or sharing it helps us donate more care kits before the month ends.

Before I became a mother, I didnāt fully understand it.
How much you give.
How rarely you stop.
How little time you actually take for yourself.
AmaSKN was never just about skincare for me.
It started with a deeper intentionā¦
to create something clean, something honestā
something that truly cares for your skin,
while also giving back to the communities and land it comes from.
But now, as a mother, it means something even more.
Itās about creating a small moment in your day
that belongs to you.
Or a moment you can share with someone you love.
Wishing all the mothers out there a beautiful Motherās Day š¤

Seeing AmaSKN here was a full circle moment.
What started as an idea rooted in the Amazon has grown into something that gets to stand alongside organizations doing real work to protect it.
Thank you to
for the opportunity to be part of āUnited for the Amazonā in NYC.
The mission has always been bigger than skincare.
