Feb 10 2010

Glissandra Skincare™ Inc., dedicated to the research, development, and manufacturing of anti-aging skincare products, announced it has signed its first distributorship agreement granting Enchanted Meadow the rights to distribute Glissandra to its more than 2000 spa and gift industry retailers throughout the US and Canada. Glissandra’s bioceutical skincare product trio is based on Glissandrin,™ an elite ingredient powered by the youth-preserving and holistic properties of the Schisandra berry that is proven to effectively combat the visible signs of aging and promote the healthy appearance of the skin by targeting mitochondrial decay - the leading cause of skin aging.

“We are honored to welcome such a stellar and highly respected spa and gift industry distributor like Enchanted Meadow and their retailers to our growing Glissandra family.”

“The addition of Glissandra Skincare Products to our collection will open up new markets and opportunities for expansion in this exciting growth industry,” explains Barbara Gaetz, president Enchanted Meadow. For more than 30 years, Enchanted Meadow has enjoyed extraordinary success and dynamic sell-through by offering multiple product lines, including personal care and home fragrance products.

Peggy C. Frank, Glissandra spokesperson, says, “We are honored to welcome such a stellar and highly respected spa and gift industry distributor like Enchanted Meadow and their retailers to our growing Glissandra family.”

Adds Ms. Gaetz, “At Enchanted Meadow we are constantly on the look out for truly innovative breakthrough spa and gift products that we know our customers will enthusiastically embrace. I truly believe that Glissandra is an excellent product and has tremendous potential in the anti-aging industry given the impressive body of scientific research that has gone into the development of this luxury, ground-breaking product line.”

Glissandrin,™ the key ingredient for the Glissandra products has been proven able to deliver the following holistic benefits:

• Oxidative Damage: Reverses mitochondrial decay by boosting the natural ability of cells to counter oxidative damage
• Skin Health: Enhances mitochondrial function by increasing production of ATP (energy currency for the cell), improving cellular metabolism
• Pro-Collagen: Inhibits depletion of collagen by suppressing MMP-1, a collagen-destroying enzyme, thereby preventing wrinkles and fine lines; peptides in Glissandra™ Face Cream provide an additional benefit – encouraging production of collagen.
• Anti-Inflammatory: Suppresses inflammation and protects skin cells against damage from free radicals
• Skin Defense: Increases resistance of skin cells against adverse environmental factors such as solar light, cigarette smoke, toxins, etc.
• Natural Adaptogen: Helps the body achieve a balanced state for vital functioning due to properties from the Schisandra berry
• Antioxidant-Rich: Increases antioxidant activity throughout the body and helps fight free radical damage
• Ready Absorption: The highly lipid-soluble formulation readily penetrates skin by passive diffusion, a natural absorption process

Glissandra’s advanced line of anti-aging products include restorative Serum,™ age-renewal Face Cream,™ and rejuvenating Eye Cream.™ They are recommended for all skin types, including those with eczema, dryness, and acne. Clinically validated and tested for safety and effectiveness (more than 75 clinical trial subjects representing broad ethnic diversity and sensitive skin types). Eighty eight percent of the testers noted significant overall improvements in luminosity, wrinkle reduction, texture, and firmness within the first two months of use.
