The Knot, Gloss.com Seal Marketing Alliance

The Knot, an online wedding resource site, and beauty e-tailer gloss.com,

Kugelman, president and co-founder of gloss.com. “Gloss.com’s inside access
to the latest trends and beauty tips from industry insiders will be
instrumental in providing The Knot users with the best in beauty products

geared toward the bride-to-be.

services possible,” says David Liu, TheKnot’s chief executive officer. “Through our new
relationship with gloss.com, we are able to offer our visitors yet another
great resource to help them plan their weddings.”
