(UNAUDITED) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2010
Note 1 - General:
The accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures or financial details required by generally accepted accounting principles. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2010. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year's operations.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a loss from operations for the six months ended November 30, 2010, has a stockholders deficiency and a working capital deficiency. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The Companys plan and ability to continue as a going concern is primarily dependent upon successful regulatory certification of its new packager, which will enable the Company to grow revenue through existing and new lines of business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to grow revenues or secure sufficient additional financing to meet future obligations.
At November 30, 2010, inventory of $120,716 consisted of $43,436 of finished goods and $77,280 of raw materials.
The Companys assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under SFAS No. 107 Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments (ASC 825-10-50) approximate their carrying amounts presented in the balance sheet based upon the short-term nature of the accounts at November 30, 2010.
The Company has evaluated the financial statements for subsequent events through the date of the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q on January 14, 2011.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Results of Operations:
The results of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2010 reflect increased sales volume in both Europe and Asian markets. In anticipation of the plant closing of Amcors packaging facility in December 2010, the Company has accelerated production and shipment of existing purchase orders from its major customers scheduled for delivery in the third fiscal quarter. The Company has selected an alternative packaging facility and anticipates its production packaging process at the new facility will be operational before the fiscal year-end. Based on the transfer of its packaging process to Amcor in 2009, the Company anticipates non-recurring increases in cost of sales and professional fees during the third and fourth quarters associated with the set-up and calibration of the new facility and the associated regulatory recertification requirements.
Six months ended November 30, 2010 compared to November 30, 2009
The Companys revenues increased 100% or $160,862 during the six months ended November 30, 2010 compared to November 30, 2009 due to increased sales of Catrix skincare in Europe and Asia offset by a decrease in license fee income. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased in 2010 due to the non-recurring costs associated with the transfer of the Companys packaging process to a new facility incurred in 2009. Total costs and expenses during the six months ended November 30, 2010 were 23% or $65,252 higher than those of the comparative prior year period due to increases in cost of sales of $62,054 and commission expense of $12,114 offset by decreases in rent and office expenses and product liability insurance of $8,400 and $5,951 respectively.
Three months ended November 30, 2010 compared to November 30, 2009
The Companys revenues increased in the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2010 compared to November 30, 2009 by 19% or $135,673 due to increased sales of Catrix skincare in Europe, offset by a decrease in license fee income of $26,201. Total costs and expenses during the three months ended November 30, 2010 were 40% or $58,917 higher than those of the comparative prior year period. The increase was principally due to increases in cost of sales of $70,641 and commission expense offset by decreases in insurance expense, professional fees and rent and office expense of $11,487, $6,254 and $4,712 respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of November 30, 2010, the Companys accounts payable and accrued expenses exceeded its current assets by $33,365. The Companys cash and cash equivalents balance decreased by $134,950 in the six months ended November 30, 2010 to $2,978. On November 10, 2010, the Company completed conversion of a $274,000 shareholder loan into common stock. Pursuant to the Loan Conversion and Stock Purchase agreement dated November 8, 2010, the Company issued 9,133,333 shares of common stock in exchange for the extinguishment of a $274,000 shareholder loan.
The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures at November 30, 2010.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required for smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Companys management, including the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
The Company has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation in connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
