DALLAS, April 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Click Here, Inc., and Richards Partners have been selected as agencies of record by Lifeline Skin Care™, a wholly owned subsidiary of International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB: ISCO), a California-based biotechnology company focused on therapeutic and research products.  Lifeline offers luxury anti-aging skin care products developed using its proprietary stem cell technology.  Based in Dallas and part of The Richards Group – the nation's largest independent branding agency – Click Here will manage the digital marketing strategy and Richards Partners will oversee public relations initiatives.

Lifeline's products are developed by a team of ISCO scientists in collaboration with world-renowned cosmetic experts, and offer a comprehensive approach to skin care using patent pending moisture serums for day and night use.  Made with human non-embryonic stem cell extracts, the serums deliver anti-aging effects by nurturing collagen and elastin, resulting in healthier and younger-looking skin.  The products can be purchased through the www.lifelineskincare.com website.

Tiffani Mauldin-Frederick, marketing partner of Lifeline Skin Care™ says, "Our partnership with these talented groups will provide additional momentum by developing strategic, engaging communications.  I am thrilled with the media reach and innovative approach provided by Richards Partners, and look forward to working with them to increase the brand recognition of Lifeline Skin Care™, and to help educate the public about the revolutionary science behind these products."

Lifeline was formed to support the research of the ISCO, a global leader in parthenogenetic stem cell technology to treat incurable human diseases such as diabetes, Parkinson's, liver and eye diseases.  Each purchase of Lifeline Skin Care™ products contributes to ISCO's search to cure these diseases.

"We are eager to support Lifeline's innovative products and unprecedented biotechnology research," said James Hering, principal at Click Here.  "Click Here and Richards Partners are uniquely suited to work in tandem, developing and deploying an overarching communications strategy for this growing company."

About Lifeline Skin Care/ISCO

Lifeline Skin Care™ is a wholly owned subsidiary of the International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB: ISCO), a publicly traded biotechnology company that has developed a powerful, ethical stem cell technology called parthenogenesis.  ISCO's core technology, parthenogenesis, results in creation of pluripotent human stem cells from unfertilized oocytes (eggs).  These proprietary cells avoid ethical issues associated with use or destruction of viable human embryos and, unlike most other major stem cell types, can be immune matched and be a source of therapeutic cells with minimal rejection after transplantation into hundreds of millions of individuals of differing racial groups.  ISCO is advancing novel human stem cell-based therapies where cells have been proven to be efficacious but traditional small molecule and protein therapeutics have not. More information is available on ISCO's website, www.internationalstemcell.com.
