Hayward, Calif. – In honor of October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, leading cosmeceutical brand DermaQuest, Inc. will donate a portion of proceeds from the sale of each Glyco Hand and Body Cream to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), a non-profit whose donations support the finest and most promising research projects around the world.

From August 1, 2009 through November 1, 2009, a portion of each purchase of DermaQuest Glyco Hand and Body Cream will be donated to BCRF in support of their mission to achieve prevention and a cure for breast cancer through research at leading medical centers worldwide and increased public awareness about breast health.  Breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women, is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, and in 2009, an estimated 192,370 cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed among women in the US.
 
“The incredible impact that breast cancer has had, especially on women, is staggering. It is imperative that companies and individuals pledge their support in any way possible to eradicate this disease in our lifetime,” said Sam Dhatt, President and CEO of DermaQuest, Inc. “It is our honor to support our customers and this important cause.”
 
Glyco Hand and Body Cream, like all DermaQuest products, is paraben-free and created to make women (and men) look and feel good about themselves. The product features Alpha Hydroxy Acids, hyaluronic acid and Shea Butter to rejuvenate and provide deep moisture to the skin, making it feel soft, smooth and supple. DermaQuest’s philosophy is to always maintain the integrity of the skin with ingredients that balance and protect, and to develop products that are not only science-based, but also effective.
 
Glyco Hand and Body Cream retails for $41 at online retailers, such as www.skinterra.com and www.skincarerx.com, and at select spas and boutiques nationwide. For a list of retailers, please visit www.dermaquestinc.com.

Founded in 1993, the mission of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is to achieve prevention and a cure for breast cancer in our lifetime by providing critical funding for innovative clinical and translational research at leading medical centers worldwide, and increasing public awareness about good breast health. BCRF-funded research has helped save lives and significantly improved the quality of care and survivorship for tens of thousands of breast cancer patients in the past decade and a half. The research itself has revealed that "cure" is a mosaic made up of as many approaches to diagnosing, treating, preventing and surviving as there are different types of breast cancer.
