DermaQuest Skin Therapy's Eyelash Product is Drug-Free

Skincare company says lash conditioning product has been drug-free since its launch in July 2007.

Hayward, CA (PRWEB) November 22, 2007 -- In response to the current press in publications like the L.A. Times (http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-allergan20nov20,1,6135142story?coll=la-headlines-business) regarding the lawsuit filed by Allergan, Inc. against certain skincare companies selling lash conditioners as well as the recent news released by the FDA regarding Jan Marini Skin Research's Age Intervention Eyelash product (http://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/2007/NEW01746.html) DermaQuest Skin Therapy informs the public that DermaLash, their lash conditioning product, does not contain prostaglandins and is completely drug-free.

DermaLash was released in the skincare market earlier this year as a drug-free alternative to some of the other lash conditioning products on the market. DermaQuest Skin Therapy's DermaLash contains ingredients from naturally-derived sources to strengthen and condition the lashes such as copper, biotin and amino acids. DermaQuest Skin Therapy has promptly sent Allergan, Inc. the complete ingredient list of DermaLash, including the ingredients included in the product's "Eyelash Growth Promoter Complex" to prove the product does not contain prostaglandins, the drug ingredient in question and the basis of their lawsuit.

"DermaQuest Skin Therapy launched DermaLash in July 2007 as a safe and drug-free lash conditioning product which enhances the appearance of eyelashes," said Sam Dhatt, CEO of DermaQuest Skin Therapy. "We have been pleased with the response from our customers on how effective DermaLash has been and we hope DermaLash will continue to be a popular item in our skincare cosmetics range."
