SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Global nutrition leader XanGo, LLC, today announced the official launch of Glimpse(TM) Intuitive Skin Care at its sixth international convention in Salt Lake City. This personal care brand features exclusive ingredients from the mangosteen delivered through a proprietary BioActive X3 Complex(TM) that uses toxin-free ingredients and green chemistry technology.

The BioActive X3 Complex found in Glimpse is comprised of three exclusive xanthone-rich ingredients that contain 30 times more antioxidant potency than green tea, according to Japanese in-vitro studies. Those same studies demonstrate that BioActive X3 Complex has been shown to calm the signs of inflammation, promote natural collagen production and protect the skin against the oxidizing effects of free radicals.*

"From the moment Joe Morton first discovered the mangosteen in 1997, we always knew the fruit had many beneficial applications," said XanGo Founder/Board Chairman Aaron Garrity. "Glimpse fits perfectly within our brand as the next mangosteen category creator, this time through a topical application that represents the best of both health and beauty as well as corporate social responsibility."

Glimpse features green chemistry that includes select botanical ingredients that are nutrient-rich and toxin-free. The cold processing of Glimpse preserves the natural potency of the phytonutrients found in the mangosteen and other active ingredients while minimizing the carbon footprint of the manufacturing process.

Consistent with the Glimpse green and clean promise, XanGo has signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics where it pledges that all the products in Glimpse meet the EU formulation standards and are free of chemicals known or strongly suspected of causing cancer, mutation or birth defects.

"We are creating a real distinction for Glimpse because we feel a responsibility to the men and women who use our products and the generations to come who expect us to leave the world a better place than we found it," XanGo Senior Vice President Beverly Hollister said. "That means all products under the Glimpse brand contain only the finest ingredients that are free of harmful toxins and chemicals."

Glimpse Intuitive Skin Care includes two basic systems: one providing nutrition for normal to dry skin and the other designed for normal to combination skin. Both systems include a cleanser, toner, serum and moisturizer. Competitively priced, either system retails for $200.

The "intuitive" nature of Glimpse refers to its self-adjusting formulas designed to address the ever-changing needs of a person's skin. The more someone uses it -- men and women of all ages and ethnicities living in all climates -- the more its nutrients target specific needs. In the process, it soothes and calms the skin while promoting natural luminosity.

"With Glimpse, you get a product that is high-performing in its delivery of powerful skin nutrition from the mangosteen," Hollister said. "It helps soothe and calm the skin, protect against environmental stressors, and defend against free radicals -- all of which lead to aging. Glimpse is the perfect blend of beauty, skin nutrition and natural ingredients."

The personal care brand can be purchased from XanGo's extensive network of 1 million independent distributors or online at http://www.xango.com.
