NEWPORT, Rhode Island, October 2009 -- Cosmetic Cosmos, a trusted supplier of high quality cosmetics and skin care, announced today that it has teamed with the Melanoma Foundation of New England to offer free skin cancer screenings at its Newport, Rhode Island retail store. The company has made a pledge to help educate consumers on the dangers and prevention of melanoma and skin cancer in addition to offering mineral foundations with sunscreen as well as other skin care products with sun protection to help customers minimize their exposure to dangerous UVA and UVB rays.

“Whether it is at the beach, park, sporting events or even driving your car, everyone must be aware of what exposure to the sun can do to their skin,,” said Sherry Brice, president, Cosmetic Cosmos. “As a trusted resource on skin care and beauty, we feel it’s our responsibility to educate consumers about the prevention and diagnosis of skin cancer. We are partnering with the Melanoma Foundation of New England, to offer free skin checks at our Newport, Rhode Island store. We also pledge to educate our customers about skin cancer and how to protect themselves from exposure to damaging UVA and UVB rays.”

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States with more than one million new cases diagnosed annually. That’s more than breast, colon, prostate and lung cancer combined. Because one in five Americans will get skin cancer, basic prevention such as sunscreen and limited exposure to the sun is key to protecting oneself. Cosmetic Cosmos offers a variety of mineral foundations with sunscreen and skin care with sun protection that help block the harmful, cancer causing UV rays. In addition, Cosmetic Cosmos also offers natural bronzers, tinted mineral moisturizers and sunless tanning products that allow customers to get a natural looking tan in the privacy of their home, without any of the risks associated with outdoor tanning.

Cosmetic Cosmos scours the planet for the latest, most advanced skin care and cosmetic products with the goal of offering customers the best products to protect and beautify the body, from head to toe. Based in Newport, Rhode Island, Cosmetic Cosmos offers both men’s and women’s products, which can be shipped around the world through its online store at www.cosmeticcosmos.com.
