EMANI NAMED EXCLUSIVE MAKEUP LINE FOR TEAMS AT 2006 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS OF PERFORMING ARTS (WCOPA)


CORONA, Calif., June 26, 2006 – Recognized for its quality line of 100 percent natural cosmetics, CFI Emani, Inc. (www.emani.com) has been selected as the exclusive makeup line for both the U.S. and Canadian teams at the 10th Annual World Championships of Performing Arts (WCOPA), August 5-13, 2006 in Hollywood, California.

“All 350 U.S. performers and 30 Canadian performers will be wearing Emani cosmetics throughout the competition,” states Michelle Doan, makeup artist and founder of Emani Cosmetics. “This prestigious international competition, which is touted as the official ‘Talent Olympics’ for aspiring performers and entertainers, is an ideal showcase for our line of natural eco- and skin-friendly cosmetics that enhance the skin’s natural glow.”

Approximately 75,000 applicants from 40 countries applied to participate in the 2006 WCOPA. Competitions include performances in six categories: dance, vocal, modeling, acting, instrumental, and variety arts.

Emani Cosmetics is working in tandem with the event organizers including Griff O’Neil, president and CEO of WorldStars Entertainment, and Michel Stefan Lejeune, makeup artist to the stars and WCOPA’s executive beauty consultant.

“I especially appreciate the quality of the Emani pigments and their ability to mix and match to create new color schemes on the spot,” explains Lejeune. “Emani’s products are entirely non-comedogenic and appropriate for all skin types. They don’t irritate the eyes and are non-pore clogging, allowing the skin to breathe naturally. All performers – and WCOPA participants in particular – want to look their best. With Emani cosmetics, there’s no caking or running, even under the spotlights on stage,” concludes Lejeune.

Emani Cosmetics will exhibit throughout the event, featuring its full line of Emani Professional Cosmetics, including Flex Mineral Super Hydrating Face Serum, Pressed Foundation, Pressed Bronzer, crushed mineral cheek colors, crushed mineral color dusts, eye base transformer, pressed eye shadows, satin eye shadows, brow fillers and liners, and pro series brushes.

Emani Professional Cosmetics protect the skin from daily UV rays, free radicals and daily pollutants. All Emani mineral-based cosmetics are free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate skin and cause breakouts. The Emani cosmetic line has been created by professional makeup artist Michelle Doan and a collaborative team comprised of ecology friendly chemists, estheticians and dermatologists who understand the core function and needs of the skin.
