John Abaté: not much news? - Page 3

Haha you're funny.

Unfortunately the Dutch importer discontinued the JA Basics line. As beginner lotions I sell lots of Melaplus.

Cote d'Azur line is going well as well. Not the Mango Flambé though, too hot for my customers :-) But Citron Sorbet & Melon Frappé: yummie!

OHHHH Silke is my ALL TIME FAVORITE LOTION! All time favorite hands down. That stuff is AWESOME!

Marca · 04-30-2006, 02:42 AM

Yes I like it too. It doens´t sell to well though, it´s too expensive for our region I guess...

I am personal friends with John and Frank, I speak with them all the time.

They are very much in business and working to bring exciting new products to the marketplace for their brand.

When you already have really good products you don't need to come up with 20 new lotions a season...

Marca · 05-01-2006, 05:05 PM

No not so many products, I get confused if so many new things are coming out. But 1 or 2 is nice to 'seduce' customers :-)

J/A has always been my favorite lotion line and because of just what has been said on this thread. They don't keep bringing out 6 new products every six months. I hate that. That's why I quit selling SB and DS. I hope John comes back kicking a**. Meloplus has always been my best beginner lotion. I sell a lot of Silkie too.

Oh yeah. Melaplus is the top dog. It makes the whole salon smell fantastic. Better than that sweaty brown eye candle I usually burn.

Yes, Melaplus is great. The scent has been improved also. Great for people who don't like anything 'fancy'. No bronzers, etc.

I was thinking about bringing in the cooling bronzer (without tingle). Any experiences with this? Or would you stick to Citron Sorbet as a cooling bronzer?

We do sell Platinum Zero (almost toooo fresh haha), but this lotion has no bronzer and many people ask for bronzers.

O and what I REALLY REALLY like about JA: not tested on animals!!! The products nor the ingredients. Many companies can't say that!
