Luminoso Studios, a Phoenix, Arizona-based skincare products company, and Avanti Skin Centers of Chicago are teaming up to donate a portion of services to the Y-Me, National Breast Cancer Organization Chapter of Chicago, Illinois for the month of October to help raise public awareness and support for breast cancer.

For Immediate Release

PHOENIX/EWORLDWIRE/Sep. 24, 2007 --- Luminoso Studios, Illustre Essenza skincare products and Avanti Skin Centers of Chicago have joined forces to support breast cancer awareness thru the local Chicago, Illinois chapter of Y-Me, a National Breast Cancer Organization. During the month of October, Avanti of Chicago is offering $31.00 spa treatments, normally priced between $79.00 -$149.00. Avanti has arranged a donation to Y-Me through PrettyCity.com - an organization that is helping sponsor this event throughout Chicago. The $31.00 promotion includes an Illustre Essenza Sweet Cherry Cream or Azul Agave Enzyme chemical peel donated by Luminoso Studios. The $31.00 special rate for these services is to help promote public awareness about breast cancer. In the United States, breast cancer is the most common non-skin cancer and second leading cause of cancer related death in woman(Source: National Cancer Institute Breast cancer statistics, updated 9/2006).

Mimi Walhmann, owner of Avanti Skin Center of Chicago, and her Clinic Manager, Kristi Reasons, are excited to be a part of helping to raise the awareness and showing their support for a disease that affects so many women. Says Reasons, "We have already booked over 158 appointments for this special event in October. We are featuring the Illustre Essenza Sweet Cherry Cream and Azul Agave Enzyme Peels. Participants can also try laser hair removal for just $31.00. It is a great way to help someone feel better on the outside as well as the inside and support awareness about an issue that can affect anyone of us at any given time."

Wahlmann has first-hand knowledge, "My experience with two friends has also made me very aware of how close to home breast cancer can strike." Says Wahlmann, "I really want to make sure my clients are aware that they are not alone if they are diagnosed or know they have resources to use if they have any questions. This is a great organization, and I'm happy I can help support the cause."

VP of sales for Illustre Essenza, Sandy Tirado, wants to show support by donating the Luminoso Studios Professional Use Only line of Illustre Essenza skincare products. "The peels and masks smell wonderful, and their unique aromatherapy is very uplifting. We have an opportunity to make a difference in others' lives that are recently diagnosed or have survived breast cancer even if it's just to give them a little extra pampering - something they might not be able to normally budget for."
