Latin Superstar Sensation Barbara Mori Brings Saba® to the United States

PHILADELPHIA, July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Award-winning actress Barbara Mori is teaming up with the well-known Mexican brand Saba®, to launch the Saba Confort™ Manzanilla line of pantiliners and pads in select cities in the United States. As part of the launch, Barbara invites Latina women to allow themselves to be pampered by Saba, and encourages them to reconnect with their dearest girlfriends along with the kick-off of the Dejate Consentir de Nuevo contest, which gives them a chance to win an indulgent Girls Getaway trip for two.

The Saba Confort™ line offers four varieties of uniquely scented pantiliners and pads, which are designed with an internal anatomical system that distinctly molds to the body from front to back, which is not only secure, but more comfortable. The pads provide all day freshness with chamomile and aloe vera extracts to control odors and feature a soft cloth-like cover for a drier, more natural feeling.

"Saba is a brand I've trusted for years, and it's really exciting to bring the line of pantiliners and pads, that so many women love in Mexico, to the U.S.," says Barbara Mori. "I want to invite Latina women to give Saba just one of their days and feel naturally comfortable."

Dejate Consentir De Nuevo Contest and La Cajita Consentidora

Now through August 12, women can enter for a chance to win a getaway for themselves and a girlfriend as a way to say "thank you" for being that special person with whom they find comfort, by visiting the Contest tab on Saba's Facebook page. To enter, women must submit a photo of themselves with their special girlfriend and briefly explain why they want to be reunited. The winner and her guest will win an all-expense paid trip, including spa treatments, in one following cities of their choice—San Diego, CA; Telluride, CO or Hilton Head, SC. They'll also receive free Saba Confort™ Manzanilla products for a year.   

Women can also send their Facebook friends custom Cajitas Consentidoras, virtual comfort gift boxes, which include their favorite comforting items.  They can choose everything from virtual chocolate and bath robes, to virtual chamomile tea and candles, to share with their special friends.

Easy Ways to Stay in Touch with Girlfriends from Barbara Mori

Whether you're cramming for finals, working full-time or busy with your children's schedules, it's important to always find a little time to reconnect with those girlfriends who provide support and comfort in your everyday life. Barbara knows a busy schedule first-hand and below are some of her tips for maintaining female friendships:

• Communicate often: With cell phones, computers and video conferencing technology, it's easy to stay in touch even between travels. It's also a nice way to remind your friends you're thinking of them. You can also send a group message to your chicas on your favorite social media sites.
• Set a friendship date: If you happen to be in the same city, set-up a time to go to the spa or get beauty treatments together. It allows for quality catch-up time and to be pampered at the same time.
• Share comforting gifts: It's always nice to give and receive small presents; especially the kind that makes any woman feel comfortable. Give your chicas Cajitas Consentidoras with virtual versions of some of your favorite items such as a soft robe, chamomile candles, Saba pads and an eyelid mask. Finish it off with a personalized note to thank them for always being there when you needed them most.
