the pitch
Kidskin is a line of skincare products that aim to give teens and pre-teens an alternative to the harsh chemicals and artificial ingredients found in many skincare brands. Our high-quality, medical-grade products, balance gentle ingredients for daily use and effective formulas that tackle common stubborn skin concerns. We are on a mission to not only improve the health of your skin but to support teens with their self-esteem and confidence by educating young teens the importance of good hygiene. Our founders are 100% Hispanic and 66% Women-Owned. We have been in business for over 9 years, and are a 4.5+ star rated company on Amazon, with thousands of reviews. We are also an Amazon Choice product outperforming most of our competitors. Jordan Canepa's and her father Michael Canepa's story of their struggle to find a solution to combat acne is one that many teens and their parents can relate to. Jordan and Michael have captured the hearts of people around the globe, making our mark in the skincare industry by providing a clean, medical-grade skincare solution for teens and tweens.
Overview
Founded by a father-daughter duo, Kidskin is on a mission to help kids live happy and healthy lifestyles without having to worry about their skin. We have established a major online presence on our website and Amazon.com, and now we plan to bring our products to a major retail partner that we're currently in discussions and other major drug stores nationwide. In our next phase of growth, we plan to open Kidskin dermatology clinics in three strategic locations in Southern California for the treatment of childhood skin conditions, before eventually launching a franchise model for further expansion.
The Problem & Our solution
When our founder Michael Canepa’s eldest daughter Jordan experienced acne breakouts at just six years old, he found it surprisingly difficult to find any effective cleanser gentle enough for her delicate skin. Utilizing his background in medical-grade skincare and Jordan’s valuable input, the father-daughter team worked together to formulate Kidskin’s first product, a gentle and effective cleanser using tea-tree oil and a serum using salicylic acid.
Now, we have a line of kid-friendly, dermatologist-recommended products including cleansers, serums, moisturizers, body wash, deodorant, and sunscreen. All our products are sulfate-free, paraben-free, fragrance-free, cruelty-free, and vegan. We are currently developing a number of exciting new products, including wart remover, scar treatment, and after school/sport face wipes.
the market & Our Traction
The global cosmetics market is valued at $287.94 billion and expected to grow to $415.29 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 5%. The teenage personal care market alone is predicted to grow by $8.81 billion from 2022 to 2026, at a CAGR of 6.5% (Source).

Why Invest
Acne and other conditions don’t just affect kids’ skin, but also impacts their confidence and emotional well-being. By creating skincare options specifically designed for kids, we are investing in the self-esteem of our young generation, as well as their skin health. With plans in motion to expand into new personal care products, big box pharmacies across the country, and into dermatology locations and an eventual franchise model, we envision Kidskin becoming a leading brand in tween and teen products.
Kidskin is a clean, medical-grade, skincare line specifically formulated for pre-teens and teens with gentle, natural and effective ingredients. We have been an established business since 2013, selling our products for the last 9 years. Our products are currently available for sale on Amazon.com and Kidskin.com. We are currently in discussions with several major retail partners. and slated to be on shelves October 2023.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
