    St John's University Commends YOYO Lip Gloss CEO


    Angie Parlionas, the CEO of YOYO Lip Gloss, was interviewed for a St. John’s article that was recently published. They had a great picture of Angie looking fabulous and did a nice piece on her. So what did they say? They talked about how she got started, the history of YOYO and where we are going as a company and with our product in the future. Angie was just a child when the concept of a permanently attached lip gloss came to her. Look at YOYO now! Though her dream was small and immature then, it is realized now while Angie is just 30 years old!

    We all are pretty familiar with the YOYO story. But St. John’s was such a huge part of the inspiration for Angie and why she is where she is today. Angie was a former St. John’s University Peter J. Tobin College of Business MBA student. Professor Larry Boone’s Entrepreneurship class of 2003 stoked the fires of ingenuity and put legs to what was only a little girl’s thought.

    So why would St. John’s want to talk to Angie? To inspire the next generation. That dreams can become reality. Their school was such a big part in Angie’s life; which Angie STILL invites Professor Boone to anything that YOYO has going on!! Angie has seen lip gloss become a makeup empire. Part of her heart’s desire is to give back and inspire young girls to follow their hearts. Family, teachers and friends believed in Angie and she knew she could develop and create what YOYO is today. Angie is always about encouraging someone else for tomorrow.

Due to the incredible popularity of both these shows, Pastry is in high demand as well.

And guess who was at their Palisades, NY Mall event to pair up the hottest lip gloss with their hot, hip new line? That’s right! YOYO Lip Gloss!!

    Girls Flip to be on T.V. Representing the NEW Y - to the - O - to the - Y - to the O

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

    /YOYO Lip Gloss/- NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 10, 2008 - YOYO Lip Gloss, a new retractable lip product, is hosting a casting call titled “Do You Have What it Takes?” on October 18, 2008 in Brooklyn, NY. Young girls from all over the tri-state area will be participating for a chance to be on TV! Girls who are active soccer players, gymnasts, baseball players and more are excited to be coming down, dressed, and performing their favorite sporting activity and using their YOYO Lip Gloss too. The judges will be selecting 30 finalists to participate in YOYO's first commercial that will air on various networks, including Nickelodeon and MTV.

    WHAT: YOYO Lip Gloss casting call “Do You Have What it Takes?”
    WHEN: October 18, 2008 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
    WHERE: Brooklyn Studios located at 211 Meserole Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11222.
    WEBSITE: http://www.yoyolipgloss.com/castingcall

    YOYO Lip Gloss was conceptualized by entrepreneur Angie Onassis Parlionas in 2003 at the age of 25. She could empathize with females daily searching for their lip gloss that leaves them rummaging endlessly and resulting in nothing. One day she realized she could create something; a retractable lip gloss. This brilliant easy access idea attached to a 3 ½ foot cord that clips to the hip, became the prototype for YOYO Lip Gloss. Angie protected her idea with a U.S. utility patent in March 2008. International patents were also filed and are pending in countries including Europe and Japan.

    YOYO Lip Gloss was officially incorporated in 2004. The product was released for a market test In December 2007. Since then, girls everywhere have been living by it's motto to "Clip it, twist it, squeeze it, wear it all day long and never lose your lip gloss again." YOYO has mix and match interchangeable reels and fun characters that are modeled after the U.S. teen demographic populations. Each lip gloss has it's own character, color, flavor, trading card, sporting activity and fun name such as "Rowdy Rowdy Raspberry" and "Raisin Tha Roof Red". The gloss itself is made from a high grade formula that was created by a U.S. chemist who worked for Estee Lauder for over 30 years. It tastes great, is super shiny, has luscious shimmer, a great sparkle and a cooling tingle.

    YOYO Lip Gloss is available in hundreds of local shops and chain retail outlets including Rainbow Shops, Joyce Leslie, Paradise Shops, and Rave Girl, in over 20 states across the U.S. Additionally, YOYO Lip Gloss is not limited to just gloss. YOYO is an ever growing empire of quality and practical beauty products with 14 new creations in development. Lip gloss is truly just the beginning... as YOYO Lip Gloss launches in December 2008!

    Where is My Lip Gloss?

    It's Saturday afternoon and the mall is packed. I'm picking up some leggings with the hot new mini when all of a sudden, I turn out of the store and there... he ... is!!! Hottest guy ever and he's heading straight towards me!!! I grab my sidekick to text my bestie while checkin my "look" out in a window. Everything is cool. Hair is in place. Makeup is ok. Just a quick touch of gloss and I'm ready for him to make the move. Scrambling in my bag, I fumble through keys, a wallet, some gum wrappers. "Wait", I said, "I know I threw it in here." More rummaging through pens and a tube of something that I'm thinkin, "Yes. There it... noo!! It's just my purse lotion. Where did I put my lip gloss?" Now I'm dropping crumpled tissues, an earring and several remnants of my purse onto the floor. "It's gotta be in here!" And before you know it? Mr. Hottie is a Not-tie as my gloss-less quest has left me focusing on finding this little missing tube and not lost in ice blue eyes with the great smile. Cuz I look up? And he's nowhere to be found. Makes you want to scream, right?

    Time after time many girls have found themselves fighting through pocketbooks, book bags, suitcases, and pockets asking "Where is my lip gloss?" Today? The search is over. The answer? YOYO LIP GLOSS!!

    YOYO Lip Gloss is my practical, unique and innovative design. Being an equally frustrated, daily lip gloss wearer, I found myself turning into a lip gloss recovery agent! But then suddenly? The light bulb went on. A retractable lip gloss that is there where you need it every single time. No more digging, searching and turning up empty handed. Just clip it onto your favorite hipsters, popped collar, or trendy handbag. The cool, refreshing and tasty flavors with the perfect hint of pink, red, purple, clear and brown hues for any skin type are great for any chick looking for that perfect hands on lip gloss.



    Celebrities are excited about YOYO too! And who better to sponsor than Lil Mama; writer and performer of the chart topper "Lip Gloss"!! That's right. Click here to check out her album release party pictures sponsored by YOYO Lip Gloss, the newest, hot commodity.





    So I know you're wondering, "How can I get my hands on a YOYO Lip Gloss?" We are excited to announce that YOYO is
    available right now at your local Rainbow Shops. YOYO Lip Gloss is also available in over 18 states! Check yoyolipgloss.com for store locations or purchase on our site. Our gift to you?
