Sunrider Employee Has “Home Field” Advantage When It Comes To Baseball

The smell of the grass, the crack of the bat, the roar of crowd…this can only mean one thing—Major League Baseball (MLB) is back, and it’s time to play ball! The season, which began in early April and extends into October, is now in full swing. Fans everywhere are rooting for their favorite team, marveling at action-packed plays, and harnessing high hopes for post-season glory. And here at Sunrider World Headquarters, there’s one baseball fan who has a personal reason to be especially excited about the season: Janene Ulrich, Director of Human Resources, is the aunt and godmother of Skip Schumaker, a rising young star on the St. Louis Cardinals.

Skip was born in Torrance, California (home city of Sunrider World Headquarters!), and attended U.C. Santa Barbara, where he studied and played baseball. He was drafted during his junior year (2001) by the Cardinals in the 5th round of the amateur draft. After spending four years in their minor league system, Skip played his first Major League game in 2005. After displaying versatility and phenomenal play the past three seasons (batting over .300!), he earned the Cardinals starting second basemen spot, and was later rewarded with a two-year, $4.7-million contract in February of this year. Way to go, Skip!

But that’s not all. Skip isn’t Janene’s only family connection to baseball. Skip’s sister (and Janene’s niece), Hayley Schumaker, is the fiancée of Cleveland Indians pitcher Anthony Reyes (the winning pitcher of the first game of the 2006 World Series, when he played for St. Louis). This past March, Janene traveled to Goodyear, Arizona with Hayley to see Anthony and watch some of his team’s Spring Training games. Janene reports that Anthony is currently on the disabled list after elbow surgery, but is expected to be ready to play by June or July.

Janene mentioned that while in Arizona watching games in the sunny outdoor stadium, she and Haley refreshed themselves with Shaker Bottles filled with ice-cold Sunrider® beverages. Janene says Sunrider® products are so great that she now takes them with her everywhere she goes, including baseball road trips. We’ve included two pictures from the Arizona trip that Janene shared of her niece, whom some may even recognize from her former days on the NFL sidelines, performing as a San Diego “Chargers Girl” cheerleader.

We hope you have a blast this baseball season rooting for your favorite team. And while you’re at it, please keep an eye on (and cheer for!) a certain second baseman on the St. Louis Cardinals!

Kandesn® Quick and Easy Summertime Looks

Kandesn® Summertime Makeup should always be subtly light and refreshingly beautiful. With the emergence of summer, your complexion is starting to take on a radiant glow and your makeup should reflect the season! We think you’ll agree that our model has the Kandesn® Summertime Glow. We’re going to give you all the tips to create a fresh look that is both healthy and natural looking, using delicate hues that are very simple to duplicate and personalize.
Kandesn® Protective Foundation SPF 15
	The goal for summer skin is to make it look as smooth and flawless as possible. This can be easily achieved using Kandesn® Protective Foundation SPF15. It’s a multitasking foundation that will nourish and moisturize, while affording SPF protection. Created with the best ingredients Mother Nature has to offer, it allows skin to breathe, appear smooth, and stay hydrated all summer long.
Application tipsStart the application on the center of your face, dotting foundation on cheeks and forehead. Blend downward and outward into the hair line and jaw line. Your final application should always be blended in a downward direction to make sure all facial hair lays flat for a smooth radiant look.
Suggested Choices
After application, skin looks healthy, dewy, and beautifully flawless - perfect!
For our model’s eyes, we used Kandesn® Mini Compact #2. We simply brushed the highlighter color “Iced Pink” over the entire eyelid and then contoured the eyelid with subtle grey. Then we applied subtle grey along the lash line from the outer corner to the inner corner and lightly blended the color up to the socket. This application only took a few strokes of a brush. Kandesn® Charcoal Liquid Eyeliner and Kandesn® Dark Charcoal Lash Enhancer Mascara completed the look!
	For a natural flush of color on the cheeks, it’s better to highlight your cheek bones with sheer pinks and gentle peaches, as they give a pretty and naturally healthy look. For darker skin tones, bronzed browns and deep purples are complementary and define features exquisitely. When you apply the blush, smile first, as it is the easiest way to find the “apple” of the cheeks.  Apply blush to the apple and then blend backwards and upwards toward the hairline. This technique will give you a youthful and beautiful appearance.
	Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Colors are always a hit in the summer because they keep the lips soft and hydrated for all the outdoor fun! At Sunrider, we make our lip colors with the choicest ingredients that are “good enough to eat.” Our Model is wearing 1119 - Iced Wine. To finish off her look, we applied Kandesn® Lip Gloss 193 – Passion Berry, giving her a shimmery, stunning finish.
You can also achieve a similar summer look with Mini Compact #3 and 1115 Lip Color - Tea Rose and 109 Lip Gloss - Soft Peach. For darker skin tones, we suggest Mini Compact #1 and Lip Color 1121- Red Spark
We have six Mini Compacts to choose from and several Kandesn® Lip colors, so get creative and step out of your comfort zone. Be a natural Kandesn® beauty all summer long and be your own most effective walking Sunrider advertisement!

The donation ceremony, held by the Chinese National Overseas Chinese Federation, was attended by our Chinese legal counsel, Ms. Hong Ren.

In the fall of 2009, Sunrider China also donated to the Sichuan Earthquake Relief Fund to rebuild two elementary schools that that were leveled by a devastating earthquake.

Heightening Sunrider Exposure: Local Event Creates Awareness

Dubbed an “amazing, life-changing event” by organizers, Sunrider International attended the Women’s Information Network (WIN) International Convention “Be the Change” in Los Angeles on Saturday, April 17, at the Westin Los Angeles Airport Hotel.

Presented by WIN, a community of women helping women, the event brought ladies together from all over to enrich their personal and professional lives, and Sunrider was on-hand to share its products and business opportunity with the many who attended.

Various media experts, word-class presenters, and best-selling authors were also there to offer invaluable information, advice, and inspiration to women trying to achieve their goals and “reinvigorate their life.”

Amy Cheryl, a Business Leader from Los Angeles, said:

“I made some great contacts and a couple that are interested in becoming business builders, so that is huge! I find that events like these are so important to have a presence at as it offers an audience to share Sunrider International with. I find that most of these events are not about making immediate sales; it is more about making contacts, networking, making relationships, sharing the Sunrider philosophy and their amazing products, and then the key is in the follow up. I always make sure to get their contact info, and to give them a catalog/brochure. I, personally, also utilize these events to walk around to the other vendors who may not get a chance to come over to the Sunrider booth. I carry the brochures with me wherever I go (even in the ladies room!), and then share with the ladies to stop by the Sunrider booth.”

Just like the women who attended this event to expand their circle, you can too at local events in your area. It’s as simple getting out there and networking!

Sunrider Supports the Gang Alternatives Program

The Gang Alternatives Program (GAP) held its 8th annual awards dinner and fundraiser event, “An Elegant Evening on the Coast,” on March 27, 2010, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in San Pedro, California. This year, Sunrider was once again a financial supporter of the event, and has supported this invaluable community program for the last several years. In fact, just two years ago, Sunrider hosted this annual event at our headquarters in Torrance.


GAP is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides services and programs to promote a gang-free lifestyle throughout many communities in and around Los Angeles. According to their website, GAP’s mission is “to eliminate the base of gang membership by having a generation of young people say ‘no’ to gangs and ‘yes’ to positive lifestyle choices.” 

Thanks to this inspiring and effective program, countless youth avoid the pitfalls of gang membership and are able to achieve success in life.
