ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     Business Development
     --------------------

     Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. ("Biozhem" or "the Company"), formerly known
     as Entourage International, Inc., is a Texas corporation which commenced
     operations in 1984.

     The Company's most significant operations involve the sale of Biozhem Skin
     Care Products, formerly Biogime Skin Care, which it distributes through a
     network of Company owned retail stores and one licensed retail store.  The
     Company enters into marketing and  distribution agreements with
     manufacturers of specific products or product lines and  resells those
     products through company-owned retail stores and one licensed retail store.

     On January 31, 1997, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, BFS
     Acquisition Corp. "BAC", entered into an agreement and plan of merger with
     the shareholders of Biogime Franchise Services USA, Inc. (BFS), a company
     owned by an Officer/Director of the Company, whereby BFS was merged into
     BAC. As a result of the merger, BAC acquired all of the assets of BFS
     amounting to $273,895 and assumed all of the liabilities of BFS amounting
     to $184,700. The assets included a $175,000 promissory note payable by the
     Company to BFS which was due on demand. Following the merger, this
     indebtedness was canceled. The merger consideration consisted of 1,500,000
     shares of common stock issued to the shareholders of BFS valued at
     $300,000. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $210,805
     in goodwill.

     On July 1, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of two retail stores from
     a franchisee for consideration of $107,155, consisting of a promissory note
     in the amount of $49,095, forgiveness of liabilities due to the Company of
     $55,060 and assumption of liabilities in the amount of $3,000. The note
     bears interest at of 8% per annum with principal and interest payments due
     monthly from July 15, 1997 through July 15, 2000.

     On December 5, 1997, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and
     Mutual Release of All Claims with the franchisee of the Atlanta, Georgia
     store, closed in April 1997. In consideration, the Company issued the
     franchisee a $59,855 non-interest bearing note and warrant to purchase
     17,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $.40 per share.


     Business of Issuer
     ------------------

     A.  Products
 
         The company markets Biozhem skin care  products.

     Biozhem Skin Care Products:  The Company's primary products are a series of
     --------------------------                                                 
     skin care formulations marketed and sold using the name Biozhem.  Sales in
     the Biozhem product line consist primarily of the five-step "Woman's Skin
     Care System".  This five-step process is specially formulated to clean and
     condition the skin.  The formulation consists of natural ingredients and
     the Company has eliminated certain ingredients which are known to be
     damaging to the skin.  The Biogime name was used for the fifteen months
     following the December 21, 1995 transfer of the direct sales division,
     after which the name "biozhem" was used by Entourage, now known as Biozhem
     Cosmeceuticals, Inc..  (See notes to financial statements)

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
     B.   Distribution

     At September 30, 1998, Biozhem skin care products are marketed through
     seven Company-owned retail stores and one franchised store and one licensed
     retail store.

               (1) Company-owned Retail Stores
                   ---------------------------

     During fiscal 1998, the Company operated seven Company-owned retail stores
     under the name Biozhem Skin Care Center. Sales through Company-owned retail
     stores were 96% and 86% of total sales in the fiscal years ended September
     30, 1998 and 1997 respectively.  The locations with opening and closing
     dates (during the current and previous fiscal years) of the Company-owned
     and operated retail stores as of September 30, 1998 were:
                
               Dallas, Texas (March 1991)
               Phoenix, Arizona (March 1992)
               Denver, Colorado (March 1993)
               Santa Ana, California (February 1997)
               San Diego, California (February 1997)
               Tulsa, Oklahoma (July 1997)
               Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (July 1997)
               San Jose, California ( March 1993) (Closed September 1997)
               Tampa, Florida (April 1993) (Closed September 1997)
               Chicago (Oakbrook), Illinois  (September 1993) (Closed
                September 1996)
 
     The San Jose, Santa Ana, San Diego, Tulsa and Oklahoma City  stores were
     acquired from franchisees; the other stores were opened by the Company.

     Management evaluated the profitability of all its retail stores and closed
     the unprofitable stores in Chicago in September  of 1996 and Tampa in
     September of 1997. These stores had shown losses since their opening.  The
     Company will continue to evaluate the profitability and continued
     operations of the other retail stores. The San Jose store was closed at the
     end of its lease with the intention of relocating to a large regional mall.

               (2)  Franchised and Licensed Retail Stores
                    -------------------------------------

     Biozhem products have been distributed through two and four franchised and
     licensed retail stores under the Biozhem Skin Care Center name through
     September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Their operations were the
     responsibility of BFS until January 31, 1997, when BFS was acquired by the
     Company. These retail stores are located in Kentucky, Oklahoma, Nevada and
     Hawaii. During 1997 the Company acquired the Santa Ana and San Diego
     franchises from BFS as well as purchasing the Tulsa and  Oklahoma City
     franchises from Hogan, Inc. The Atlanta franchise closed  April 1997.
 
     Sales to franchised and licensed retail stores and or sales to BFS through
     January 31, 1997 were 4% and  14% of total sales for the fiscal years ended
     September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
 
                (3) International Export Operations
                    --------------------------------

     International export sales were also discontinued in connection with the
     transfer of the Company's interest in Biogime International, Inc. to
     certain shareholders.

     Prior to the discontinuance, the Company had licensees in Sweden,
     Guatemala, New Zealand, Korea, Norway, Denmark, Malaysia/Singapore, Hong
     Kong, Spain, El Salvador, Thailand and Mexico.  The Company considered
     international licensee opportunities as long-term and devoted few of its
     resources to this division.

     C. Competition

     Biozhem competes with a large number of companies and product lines in the
     states in which its products are sold. Many competitive companies are well
     established and have research, financial and manufacturing capabilities and
     other resources substantially greater than those of Biozhem. Retail
     competition consists of major cosmetic companies such as Estee Lauder,
     Clinique and Lancome and national retailers such as Body Shop and Garden
     Botanica.

     Biozhem has developed extensive training materials to acquaint retail store
     employees with effective sales techniques and the various aspects of the
     Company's  products.  In addition, the Company offers fewer  products  than
     those of its national competitors, and its retail store employees therefore
     focus on the sale of fewer types of products or product lines.  As a
     result, the Company believes its retail store employees have a greater
     knowledge and  understanding of the Company's products which permits a more
     thorough and effective sales presentation from the retail store employee to
     the customer.


     D. Suppliers

     The Company has an agreement with Arizona Natural Resources, Inc. ("ANR"),
     whereby ANR produces for Biozhem a series of skin care formulations known
     as Biozhem. By agreement, ANR is committed to supervise the manufacture
     (including, without limitation, the bottling and packaging) of the multi-
     step skin care formulations and other related skin care products, and to
     produce and deliver to the Company the full requirements of the Company
     with respect to those products. Biozhem is required to pay ANR an amount
     per bottle ordered, as stipulated in the agreements, and all shipping and
     delivery costs. The agreement does not contain provisions which would
     require the Company to purchase minimum volumes thereunder. This agreement
     is currently contracted on a month-to-month basis.

     The Company maintains its inventory at a warehouse in San Juan Capistrano,
     California.  Additionally, small amounts of inventory are stocked at the
     Company-owned retail stores.  Inventory is financed through internally-
     generated funds, its working capital line of credit  and credit extended
     from ANR.  The majority of the inventory is sold for cash.  Merchandise is
     shipped directly from the San Juan Capistrano, California warehouse to
     distributors or retail stores.

     The Company extends a 90-day return policy which permits customers to
     return merchandise on an initial order in exchange for cash (less a
     restocking charge) or replacement merchandise.


     E. Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights

     The Company utilizes no patents or copyrights in connection with any of its
     operations. The Company operates under a trademark registration for
     "Biozhem". The trademarks "Biogime" and "Biogime Skin Care Center" were
     being used in the United States until March 21, 1997. The service marks,
     trade name Biogime, the design logo and the three Federal trade-mark
     registrations relating to Biogime were transferred to Biogime in the
     December 21, 1995, transfer of the Company's interest in Biogime to certain
     shareholders. As part of this agreement, a consent agreement was signed by
     the Company and Biogime allowing the Company to use the Biozhem mark
     concurrently with Biogime's use of the Biogime marks. A service mark
     application was filed on May 27, 1997 for Biozhem's "Advanced Skin Care
     Solutions". Trade name and trade mark applications were also filed on May
     27, 1997, for Biozhem, Biozhem Skin Basics, Biozhem Body Basics and Colour
     Concepts by Biozhem. The Company seeks to protect its proprietary interests
     in its products by applying for patents, trademarks and/or copyrights as
     circumstances warrant.

     F. Government Regulations

               Products
               --------

     Certain federal agencies regulate, among other things, the purity and
     packaging of cosmetic products. Similar regulations are in effect in
     various states. Manufacturers and distributors of cosmetic products are
     also subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Trade Commission with
     respect to such matters as advertising content and other trade practices.
     The Company has entered into private cosmetics labeling agreements only
     with non affiliated manufacturers that manufacture products in a manner
     which complies with such regulations and who have submitted or intend to
     submit their products periodically to independent laboratories for testing.
     However, the extent of potentially adverse governmental regulations which
     might arise from future legislation or administrative action cannot be
     predicted.



     G. Employees and Consultants
 
     Biozhem employs 12 full-time and 13 part-time persons, one of whom is an
     officer and director of the Company.
 

ITEM 2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

     The Company leases 2,400 square feet of office and warehouse space within a
     business park setting in San Juan Capistrano, California. The Company also
     leases retail space for each Company-owned retail center which it operates
     as a Biozhem Skin Care Center in the various locations. Generally, retail
     stores are located in small, upscale shopping centers with 700 to 1,000
     square feet of space each. The total lease commitments are $204,000,
     $129,000, $85,000, $51,000 and $17,000 in fiscal years 1999, 2000, 2001,
     2002 and 2003, respectively.


ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
     The Company was sued on June 14, 1996, by Biogime International, Inc. (the
     Plaintiff) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
     Texas, Houston, Texas, for damages related to alleged breaches of the
     master transaction agreement and the standstill agreement signed in
     December 1995. The Plaintiff claimed damages in the amount of at least
     $100,000 for the Company's alleged failure to make required payments due
     April 5, 1996, May 5, 1996, and June 6, 1996, under the master transaction
     agreement and for the Company's failure to pay for legal fees called for in
     the agreement. The plaintiff also claimed that the Company had violated the
     standstill agreement by advertising in areas prohibited under the agreement
     and requested that the Company be enjoined from further breaches of the
     agreement. Attorney fees and court costs were also claimed in the suit by
     the Plaintiffs. On November 20, 1996, a release and settlement agreement
     was signed by the Company and the Plaintiff settling all claims and causes
     of action that the companies had or in the future could have that were in
     any way connected with the agreements. As a result of the settlement
     agreement, the Company paid a one time amount to Biogime International,
     Inc. of $20,000 and the plaintiff agreed to comply with certain competitive
     restrictions. The plaintiff also agreed to provide certain documents and
     signatures called for in the previous agreements. On February 18, 1997, an
     agreed order of dismissal with prejudice was filed in the District Court
     Harris County, Texas, 61st Judicial District.

     The Company is subject to certain claims arising in the ordinary course of
     business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the amounts
     ultimately payable, if any, as a result of such claims will not have a
     material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

                (1)   Election of Board of Directors

     An Annual Meeting of shareholders was held on August 18, 1998. The Board of
     Directors was reelected and consists of John C. Riemann, Director/CEO,
     Warren L. Hernand, Stan R. Wylie, Paul A. Reyff Sr., and Alan Goldsberry.

                (2)   Name Change of Corporation

     The Board of Directors proposed that Article One of its Articles of
     Incorporation be amended to change the name of the Company to "Biozhem
     Cosmeceuticals, Inc." The Board felt that the proposed new name of the
     Company would have various beneficial effects on the Company's image,
     marketing efforts and public recognition. The final vote was 4,163,985 in
     favor, 7,367 against and 41,255 abstained.

                (3)   Reclassification of Common Stock/Authorization of
                      Additional Common Stock/ Authorization of Preferred Stock

     The Board of Directors proposed that Article Four of the Articles of
     Incorporation be amended to (i) reclassify each share of issued and
     outstanding Common Stock of the Company into one-fifth (1/5) of a share of
     Common Stock, (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock
     to 100,000,000, (iii) authorize 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, and
     (iv) authorize the Board of Directors to establish series of Preferred
     Stock by fixing and determining the designations, preferences, limitations
     and relative rights, including voting rights, of the shares of any series
     so established. The final vote was 4,007,882 in favor, 26,074 against and
     41,075 abstained. Note - all share amounts have been adjusted throughout
     this 10-KSB to reflect the 1 for 5 split.

                (4)   Eliminate Cumulative Voting

     The Board of Directors proposed that Article Nine of the Articles of
     Incorporation be amended to eliminate cumulative voting by shareholders in
     the election of directors. If approved, in future elections of directors of
     the Company, the holders of a majority of shares voting for the election of
     directors can elect all the directors if they choose to do so, thereby
     eliminating the possibility of the election, through the use of cumulative
     voting rights, of one of more members to the Board of Directors by holders
     of less than a majority of the shares for the election of directors. The
     final vote was 3,619,771 in favor, 301,869 against and 41,695 abstaining.

                (5)   Limit Director Liability

     The Board of Directors recommended that the shareholders consider and
     approve a proposal  to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation to
     include a new Article Ten. The proposed Article Ten would limit the
     personal liability of the Company's directors to the Company or its
     shareholders for monetary damages for certain acts or omissions by the
     directors in their capacities as directors. The final vote was 4,164,348 in
     favor, 6,424 against and 41,675 abstaining.


                (6)   Shareholder Action by Written Consent

     The Board of Directors recommended that the Articles of Incorporation be
     amended by adding a new Article Eleven. Article 9.10A of the TBCA provides
     that the Articles of Incorporation of a Texas corporation may provide that
     any action required by the TBCA to be taken at any annual or special
     meeting of shareholders, or any action which may be taken at any annual or
     special meeting of shareholders, may be taken without a meeting, without
     prior notice, and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing,
     setting forth the action so 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
     taken, shall be signed by the holder or holders of shares having not less
     than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such
     action at a meeting at which the holder of all shares entitled to vote on
     action were present and voted. The final vote was 3,774,532 in favor,
     259,544 against and 41,395 abstaining.

                (7)   Adoption of 1998 Stock Option Plan

     On July 6, 1998, the Board of Directors of the company approved and
     recommended for the submission to the shareholders for their adoption the
     1998 Stock Option Plan of Entourage International, Inc., know known as
     Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. (the "1998 Plan") which would be effective on
     July 6, 1998 subject to the approval of the shareholders.

     The purpose of the Plan is to provide the officers and employees of the
     Company and its subsidiaries and other eligible individuals an incentive
     through the grant of options to acquire stock in the Company and encourage
     them to remain in the Company's service. The Plan would provide the Company
     means to reward outstanding performance, enhancing its competitive position
     and attracting and retaining key personnel.

     Under the Plan, the Committee may, at any time prior to July 6, 2008 ,
     grant to eligible persons either stock options or non-qualified stock
     options for an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
     Any unexercised or canceled stock options may be reoptioned under the Plan.
     Although not eligible to receive grants of incentive stock options, members
     of the Board of Directors of the Company who are not full-time employees of
     the  Company or one of its subsidiaries are eligible to receive grants of
     options. Directors who are full-time employees of the Company or one of its
     subsidiaries are eligible to receive grants of either incentive stock
     options or other options.

     Stock options granted under the Plan may be exercisable in whole or part at
     any time or from time to time during their respective terms, but only to
     the extent that they have vested and only by tendering to the Company
     written notice of exercise accompanied by the purchase price. The final
     vote was 4,013,448 in favor, 26,294 against and 41,755 abstaining.

ITEM 5.   MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND
          RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

     Historically, the Company's common stock was traded in the over-the-counter
     market of NASDAQ under the symbol "ENTG". On January 23, 1991, the Company
     was notified that its stock was delisted from the NASDAQ system because of
     the limited number of firms making a market for the Entourage stock under
     the NASDAQ system. Though there is still a limited market in the Company's
     common stock now under the symbol "BZHM", there have been sporadic bid
     prices quoted during fiscal year 1998. The following table sets forth the
     high and low bid prices of Biozhem common stock for the periods shown.
     Information on December, March and June quarters is not available.

              Quarter Ended           Bid Prices

     The above quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up,
     markdowns or commission, and may not necessarily reflect actual
     transactions. The above quotations have been adjusted to reflect the 5 for
     1 stock split at August 18, 1998 (see Note 10).

     As of September 30, 1998, there were approximately 660 record holders of
     the Company's common stock.

     Biozhem has paid no dividends on its common stock and has no present plans
     to do so. Biozhem's Board of Directors intends to retain earnings, if any,
     to finance the growth and development of the business of Biozhem. Any
     payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the
     Board of Directors and will depend upon the financial condition, capital
     requirements and earnings, if any, of Biozhem, as well as other factors
     which the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

     General
     -------


     The Company was sued by Biogime International, Inc. (BII) on June 14, 1996
     for damages related to alleged breaches of certain agreements signed on
     December 21, 1995. A settlement was reached on November 20, 1996 under
     which the Company paid $20,000 to BII.

     The Company closed two of its retail stores in September 1997. The closures
     resulted in a charge of $16,000 for the write-off of leasehold improvements
     and other assets, inventory, settlements of lease commitments, severance
     payments and related legal fees.  One store was closed at the end of its
     lease period with the intention of being relocated to  a large regional
     mall. Its computer customer data base is being serviced currently by other
     locations. The other store was closed permanently.  The net sales for the
     two closed locations were less than $153,000 in 1997.

     On January 31, 1997, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary,
     entered into an agreement and plan of merger with the shareholders of
     Biogime Franchise Services USA, Inc. (BFS), a company owned by an
     Officer/Director of the Company. As a result of the merger, the Company
     acquired all of the assets of BFS, amounting to $273,895, and assumed all
     the liabilities of BFS, amounting to $184,700. The assets included a
     $175,000 promissory note payable by the Company to BFS which was due on
     demand. Following the merger, this indebtedness was canceled. The merger
     consideration consisted of 1,500,000 shares of common stock issued  to the
     shareholders of BFS.

     The merger was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the operations
     of BFS have been included in the consolidation statement of operations
     beginning February 1, 1997. Goodwill arising from the transaction amounted
     to $210,805 and is being amortized on a straight line basis over 10 years.

     On July 1, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of two retail stores from
     a franchisee for consideration of $107,155, consisting of a promissory note
     in the amount of $49,095, forgiveness of liabilities due to the Company of
     $55,060 and assumption of liabilities in the amount of $3,000. The note
     bears interest at of 8% per annum with principal and interest payments due
     from July 15, 1997 through July 15, 2000.

     The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.  Accordingly, the purchase
     consideration was allocated to the acquired assets on the basis of
     estimated fair value and the operations of the retail stores acquired are
     included in the consolidated statement of operations beginning July 1,
     1997.  Goodwill, a covenant not to compete and customer list of $50,155,
     $20,000, and $15,000, respectively, were recorded in connection with this
     transaction.  (Note 5)

     On December 5, 1997, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and
     Mutual Release of All Claims with the franchisee of the Atlanta, Georgia
     store, closed in April 1997. In consideration, the Company issued the
     franchisee a $59,855 non-interest bearing note and warrant to purchase
     17,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $.40 per share.

     On August 18, 1998, the Company's shareholders voted in favor of
     reclassifying each share of issued Common Stock of the Company into one-
     fifth (1/5) of a share of Common Stock.


     Liquidity
     ---------

     The Company has experienced severe liquidity shortages beginning in August
     1994. A lack of growth in direct sales, lower than anticipated retail sales
     and profitability due to limited marketing and the need for a new
     infomercial and legal expenses incurred in connection with the BII transfer
     have contributed to the deterioration of the Company's liquidity and
     capital position. Current liabilities exceeded current assets by 

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
     $279,361 and $135,918 at September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997,
     respectively. In addition, cash balances were $0 at September 30, 1998 and
     1997.
 
     In connection with the disposal of the discontinued operations, trade
     payables and debt of approximately $272,000 and $200,000 respectively, were
     assumed by Biogime (BII) in 1996. Subsequent to the disposal, Biogime
     Franchise Services (BFS), a related party, loaned the Company approximately
     $200,000. The loan was subordinate to certain vendor financing, bore
     interest at 8% per annum and was due on demand. $175,000 of the
     indebtedness was canceled in connection with the Company's acquisition  of
     BFS in January 1997.

     On January 30, 1997, the Company issued a total of 573,500 shares of common
     stock as follows: 75,000 shares were issued in lieu of a cash payment for
     director fees totaling $15,000; 69,750 shares were issued in lieu of a cash
     payment to a director for financial consulting services totaling $13,950;
     228,750 shares were issued in lieu of a cash payment to Iamco Financial
     Corp., a company owned by a director, for corporate consulting and advisory
     services totaling $45,750; 200,000 shares were awarded an officer/director
     as a bonus for the accomplishment of specific activities totaling $40,000.
     On June 23, 1997, 40,000 shares were issued in lieu of cash payments for
     legal fees totaling $10,000.

     During 1997, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common
     stock, valued at $300,000, in connection with the acquisition of BFS. In
     addition, the Company raised $410,000 through a private placement sale of
     1,730,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

     During 1998, the Company sold 366,667 shares of its common stock. Proceeds
     to the Company were $105,000, net of offering costs of $0.

     During 1998, the Company committed 356,666 shares of common stock for
     $121,950. In connection with this offering, the Company issued 52,319
     shares of its previously unissued common stock and paid $5,502 as offering
     costs.

     On September 15, 1998, the Company issued a total of 16,668 shares of
     common stock for consulting fees to an outside firm at a share price of
     $.50 for a total of $8,334. On September 30, 1998, the Company issued a
     total of 554,761 shares of common stock as follows: 463,096 shares were
     issued to shareholders to convert $127,352 of debt to equity and an
     additional cost of $34,885 as a result of the inducement to convert, 91,665
     shares of common stock were issued in lieu of cash payment for unpaid
     directors' fees for a total of $45,833.


     On December 28, 1998, the Company signed a new note with Eldorado Bank,
     with an interest rate at prime plus 3%, with terms as  follows: interest
     only through January 1999, 1 principal payment of $10,000 plus interest on
     February 1, 1999, 1 principal payment of $15,000 plus interest on March 1,
     1999, 1 principal payment of $15,000 plus interest on April 1, 1999 and a
     final principal and interest payment of $9,585.10 on May 1, 1999. The
     Company must still rely primarily on operating cash flow and cash
     management to sustain its operations. The Company's 1999 operating plan
     contemplates improved operating results and cash flow. Subsequent to year
     end, the Company has completed an additional equity financing of $16,000 in
     private placement and is actively pursuing additional financing sources. If
     management cannot achieve its 1999 operating plan because of sales
     shortfalls or other unfavorable events, the Company may find it necessary
     to further reduce expenses or undertake other actions as may be
     appropriate.


     The Company believes that the cash generated from operating activities,
     trade credit and private placements will be sufficient to fund its
     operations for the next twelve months, however, there can be no assurance
     that this will be the case. See "Safe Harbor Statement under the Private
     Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995."

     Operations - 1998 Compared to 1997
     ----------------------------------

     Biozhem incurred a loss from continuing operations of $534,382 in 1998
     compared to a loss from continuing operations of $190,744 in 1997.

     Net sales in 1998 showed an increase of approximately $3,600 over 1997. The
     Company closed two retail stores and acquired four franchise locations in
     1997, which reflects the impact of an increase in retail sales of
     approximately $109,000, offset by a decrease in franchise sales of
     approximately $105,400. Average monthly sales per Company owned store
     remained constant at $13,000 in 1998 and 1997. Company owned stores
     accounted for 96% and 86% of  total net sales in 1998 and 1997,
     respectively. Franchised and licensed stores accounted for 4% and 14% of
     total net sales in 1998 and 1997, respectively.
 
     Gross profit in 1998 decreased by $10,096  or 1% as compared to the
     corresponding amount for 1997. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales
     decreased slightly to 81% in 1998 from 82% in 1997. Gross profit as a
     percentage of net sales at Company owned stores was 82% and 85% in 1998 and
     1997, respectively, and 54% and 62%, respectively, for sales to franchise
     stores.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by  $290,272 or 27%,
     in 1998 as compared to 1997 due primarily to the following. Payroll and
     payroll tax expense increased approximately $53,500 in 1998 due to the
     acquisition of two retail stores in July 1997. Local advertising , catalogs
     and monthly mailings, increased approximately $52,000 to $80,000 in 1998
     compared to approximately $28,000 in 1997. Consulting fees increased
     approximately  $18,600 to $24,600 in 1998 compared to $6,000 in 1997.
     Insurance expense was approximately $6,400 in 1998 compared to a negative
     expense in 1997 of $13,600 due to a refund from the Company's carrier.
     Meeting expense increased $12,100 due to the Company's annual meeting held
     in August 1998. Directors fees were $45,833 in 1998 compared to $0 in 1997.
     Shareholder communication expense was $12,644 in 1998 compared to $0 in
     1997 due to the Company's annual meeting held in August 1998.

     Depreciation and amortization increased in 1998 by $23,379 as compared to
     1997. The increase was due primarily to the acquisition of two retail
     stores in February 1997 and two in July 1997 and the amortization of
     goodwill for a full twelve months in 1998 compared to eight months and
     three months in 1997.

     Interest expense increased by $15,253 in 1998 as compared to 1997. The
     increase was due  primarily to the increase in debt the Company incurred in
     1998.

     At September 30, 1998, the Company had a federal net operating loss
     carryforward of approximately $4,135,000. If not used to offset future
     taxable income, these loss carryforwards will expire between 2002 and 2012.
     Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986, use of the Company's net operating
     loss carryforwards may be substantially limited if a cumulative change in
     ownership of more than 50% occurs within a prescribed testing period.
     Equity transactions in 1996 and 1997 may have resulted in such a change and
     would likely result in a limitation of the amount of net operating loss
     that may be used annually. Further, the limitation may render a substantial
     portion of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards unusable.

     Based on numerous factors but not limited to the Company's historical
     losses, management believes that it cannot demonstrate that it is more
     likely than not that it will fully realize all of the benefits of deferred
     tax assets existing at September 30, 1998. Accordingly, a valuation
     allowance has been provided for the full amount of the Company's deferred
     tax assets.

     Year 2000
     ---------

     The Company is currently assessing computer hardware and software
     difficulties that may be experienced in connection with the so-called "Year
     2000" problems. The Company currently relies upon computer hardware and
     software systems from various third party vendors to manage critical
     functions of the Company. Internally generated software systems do not
     comprise a material element of the Company's information technology. The
     Company is in the process of securing from third party software and
     hardware vendors, including providers of telephone services, certificates
     of compliance with Year 2000 issues for currently installed systems that
     are material to the Company's operations. At this time, the Company expects
     that its key information technology vendors will be compliant with Year
     2000 requirements. A failure by a third party vendor to adequately address
     the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In
     addition, the magnitude of certain risks, for example those associated with
     embedded chips, are unknown at this point, and could nevertheless have a
     material adverse impact on the Company and other companies in its industry.

                        Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated  balance sheet of Biozhem
Cosmeceuticals, Inc., formerly Entourage International, Inc. and its subsidiary,
(the Company) as of September 30, 1998 and the related consolidated statements
of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the management
of Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Biozhem
Cosmeceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiary at September 30, 1998 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then
ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully disclosed in
Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's recurring
operating losses and working capital  deficiency raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans as to these
matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                For the Years Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

1.   Organization

Description of the Company

     Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. (the Company), formerly known as Entourage
     International, Inc., and subsidiary markets and distributes consumer
     products (primarily skin care products) through retail stores which are
     Company-owned or operated by franchisees in California, Texas, Colorado,
     Arizona, Oklahoma, Nevada and Hawaii.

     During 1997, as described further in (Note 3), the Company acquired four
     retail stores from franchisees.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30,
     1998 and 1997 (see Note 3) include the accounts of Biozhem Cosmeceuticals,
     Inc. and BFS Acquisition Corp. All significant intercompany accounts and
     transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     The Company's consolidated financial statements have been presented on the
     basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the
     realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
     course of business. The Company reported a loss from operations of $534,382
     for the year ended September 30, 1998 and has a working capital deficiency
     of $279,361 as of September 30, 1998.

     The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to achieve
     its 1999 operating plan, which contemplates significantly improved
     operating results and cash flow and to obtain additional financing. There
     can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in these regards.
     Since September 30, 1998, the Company has received an additional $16,000 in
     equity financing.

     If management cannot achieve the 1999 operating plan because of sales
     shortfalls or other unfavorable events, the Company may find it necessary
     to further reduce expenses or undertake other actions as may be
     appropriate.

     The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
     might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Revenue Recognition and Concentration of Credit Risk

     Sales to franchisees are recorded when products are shipped. Sales by
     Company-owned retail stores are recorded when sold to a retail customer.
     Provisions are made for estimated returns and allowances at the time of
     sale.

     At September 30, 1998, accounts receivable totaled $3,002. Credit risk is
     considered by management to be minimal.

Use of Accounting Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make assumptions and
     estimates that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
     of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
     statements and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses during the
     reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                For the Years Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997


Fair Value of Financial Instruments
     The Company has financial instruments whereby the fair market value of the
     financial instruments could be different than that recorded on a historical
     basis. The Company's financial instruments consist of its trade accounts
     receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and line of credit and long-
     term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments
     generally approximate their fair values at September 30, 1998. The fair
     values of the notes payable were not readily determinable as market
     comparables were not available for such instruments.

Year 2000
     The Company is currently assessing computer hardware and software
     difficulties that may be experienced in connection with the so-called "Year
     2000" problems. The Company currently relies upon computer hardware and
     software systems from various third party vendors to manage critical
     functions of the Company. Internally generated software systems do not
     comprise a material element of the Company's information technology. The
     Company is in the process of securing from third party software and
     hardware vendors, including providers of telephone services, certificates
     of compliance with Year 2000 issues for currently installed systems that
     are material to the Company's operations. At this time, the Company expects
     that its key information technology vendors will be compliant with Year
     2000 requirements. A failure by a third party vendor to adequately address
     the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In
     addition, the magnitude of certain risks, for example those associated with
     embedded chips, are unknown at this point, and could nevertheless have a
     material adverse impact on the Company and other companies in its industry.

Inventory
     Inventory consists mainly of skin care products which are stated at the
     lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method. The Company
     purchases a majority of its inventory from one vendor. These items are
     readily available from other vendors. However, a change in supplier could
     cause delays in product delivery and possible losses in revenue which could
     adversely affect operating results. Market is determined by comparison with
     recent purchases or net realizable value. Such net realizable value is
     based on forecasts for the sales of the Company's products in ensuing
     years. Should demand for the Company's products prove to be significantly
     less than anticipated, the ultimate realizable value of the Company's
     inventories could be substantially less than the amount shown on the
     accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Property and Equipment
     Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for additions and
     major improvements are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance costs are
     charged to operations as incurred. When property and equipment are retired
     or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are
     removed from the accounts, and gains or losses from retirements and
     dispositions are credited or charged to income.

     Depreciation and amortization are provided over the estimated useful lives
     of the related assets, ranging from 3 to 5 years, using the straight-line
     method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the
     estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Depreciation
     expense amounted to $24,465 and $25,683 for the years ended September 30
     1998 and 1997, respectively.

     Management of the Company assesses the recoverability of property and
     equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of such
     assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected
     undiscounted cash flows. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured
     based on fair value (projected discounted cash flows) and is charged to
     operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by
     management. Management has determined that there is no impairment of
     property and equipment at September 30, 1998.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                For the Years Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
                                        
Intangible Assets

     Intangible assets consist of covenants not to compete, customer lists and
     goodwill arising from business combinations (Note 3) and are amortized on a
     straight-line basis. The covenants are amortized over the contractual term
     of 3 years. The customer lists are amortized over the expected benefit life
     of 3 years. Goodwill, representing the excess of the purchase price over
     the estimated fair market value of the net assets of the acquired business,
     is amortized over the period of expected benefit of 10 years. The carrying
     value for goodwill is reviewed if the facts and circumstances suggest that
     it may be impaired. If this review indicates that goodwill will not be
     recoverable, as determined based upon discounted cash flows of the entity
     acquired over the remaining amortization period, the carrying value of the
     goodwill is reduced to estimated fair value. Amortization expense amounted
     to $42,086 and $18,489 for the years ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
     respectively.

     The Company assesses the recoverability of these intangible assets by
     determining whether the amortization of the asset's balance over its
     remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash
     flows. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value
     and charged to operations in the period in which the impairment is
     determined by management. Management has determined that there was no
     impairment of intangible assets as of September 30,1998.

Advertising

     Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to
     $81,048 and $28,165 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Infomercial costs will
     be expensed at the time of first airing.

Income Taxes

     The Company provides for income taxes under the liability method.
     Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed for
     differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases
     of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts
     in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods
     in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation
     allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to
     amounts which are more likely than not to be realized. The provision for
     taxes represents the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus
     the change during the period in deferred assets and liabilities.


Per Share Amounts

     Per share amounts are computed by dividing the applicable operating
     statement caption amount by the weighted average number of common and
     dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the respective
     periods. Common equivalent shares consist primarily of stock options and
     have been excluded from the computation of weighted average shares because
     their effect would be antidilutive in each of the respective years.
     Weighted average shares outstanding amounted to 4,766,317 in 1998 and
     2,796,235 in 1997. During 1998, the Company effected a 1 for 5 exchange of
     the Company's common stock (Note 10). All per share amounts in these
     consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the 1 for 5
     exchange.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                For the Years Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997


     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
     Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings Per
     Share ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of basic EPS and
     diluted EPS on the face of all income statements issued after December 15,
     1997 for all entities with complex capital structures.  Basic EPS is
     computed as net income divided by the weighted average of common shares for
     the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur
     from common shares issued through stock options, warrants and other
     convertible securities. Both years presented have been restated to adopt
     the provisions of SFAS No.128. There was no effect on the per share amounts
     for either period as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 128.

Stock Based Compensation

     During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123").
     "Accounting  for Stock-Based Compensation", which defines a fair value
     based method  of accounting for stock-based compensation. However, SFAS 123
     allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost related to stock
     and stock options issued to employees using the intrinsic method of
     accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB
     25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Entities electing to
     remain with the accounting method of APB 25 must pro forma disclosures of
     net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value method of
     accounting defined  in SFAS 123 had been applied. The Company has elected
     to account for its stock-based compensation to employees under APB 25.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income,
     and SFAS No. 131. Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information. SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise report, by major
     components and as a single total, the change in its net assets during the
     period from nonowner sources: and SFAS No. 131 establishes annual and
     interim reporting standards for an enterprise's operating segments and
     related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and
     major customers. Adoption of these statements will not impact the Company's
     financial position, results of operations or cash flows and any effect will
     be limited to the form and content of its disclosures. Both statements are
     effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, with earlier
     application permitted.

Reclassifications
     Certain amounts in the 1997 consolidated financial statements have been
     reclassified to conform to the 1998 presentation.

3.   Acquisitions, Dispositions and Other

     On January 31, 1997, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, BFS
     Acquisition Corp., ("BAC"), entered into an agreement and plan of merger
     with the shareholders of Biogime Franchise Services (USA), Inc., ("BFS"),
     whereby BFS was merged into BAC. (Note 8).

     As a result of the merger, BAC acquired all the assets of BFS amounting to
     $273,895 and assumed all of the liabilities of BFS in the amount of
     $184,700. The assets included a $175,000 promissory note payable by the
     Company to BFS which was due on demand. Following the merger, this
     indebtedness was canceled. The merger consideration consisted of 1,500,000
     shares of common stock issued to the shareholders of BFS.

     The value of the merger consideration as determined by trading prices and
     quotations for the Company's common stock at the time of the merger was
     approximately $300,000, which represented the business judgment

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                For the Years Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

     of the Company's Board of Directors as to the fair value of BFS. Factors
     considered by the Board of Directors were the revenue, earnings and cash
     flow from the activities engaged in by BFS utilizing the assets acquired by
     the Company in this transaction and the related financial condition,
     liquidity and operating results of the Company.

     The merger was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the operations
     of BFS have been included in the consolidated statement of operations
     beginning February 1, 1997. Goodwill arising from the transaction amounted
     to $210,805 and is being amortized on a straight line basis over 10 years.

     On July 1, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of two retail stores from
     a franchisee for consideration of $107,155, consisting of a promissory note
     in the amount of $49,095 (note 7), forgiveness of liabilities due to the
     Company of $55,060 and assumption of liabilities in the amount of $3,000.
     The note bears  interest at 8% per annum with principal and interest
     payments due monthly from July 15, 1997 through July 15, 2000.

     The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.  Accordingly, the purchase
     consideration was allocated to the acquired assets on the basis of
     estimated fair value and the operations of the retail stores acquired are
     included in the consolidated statement of operations beginning July 1,
     1997.  Goodwill, a covenant not to compete and customer list of $50,155,
     $20,000, and $15,000, respectively, were recorded in connection with this
     transaction.  (Note 5)

     The proforma results of operations for 1997, assuming BFS and the acquired
     franchised retail stores had been acquired as of the beginning of the
     respective years, are as follows:

                                                                September 30
                                                                    1997
                                                                ------------
     Revenue                                                    $1,436,849
     Net loss before extraordinary gain                           (141,441)
     Net income (loss) after extraordinary gain                   (141,441)
     Loss per share before extraordinary gain                         (.05)
     Earnings (loss) per share after extraordinary gain               (.05)


     The Company closed two of its retail stores in September 1997. The closures
     resulted in a charge of $16,000 for the write-off of leasehold improvements
     and other assets, inventory, settlements of lease commitments, severance
     payments and related legal fees.  One store was closed at the end of its
     lease period with the intention of being relocated to  a large regional
     mall. Its computer customer data base is being serviced currently by other
     locations. The other store was closed permanently.  The net sales for the
     two closed locations were less than $153,000 in 1997.

     On December 5, 1997, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the
     owners, one of which is a director of the Company, of a closed franchise
     location.  Pursuant to the agreement, the company acquired the franchise
     customer database in exchange for the issuance of a non-interest bearing
     promissory note in the amount of $59,855 and a warrant to purchase 17,000
     shares of the company's common stock for $.40 per share.  The note is due
     in 30 monthly installments of $1,995 from January 1998 through June 2000
     and the warrant is exercisable at anytime prior to its expiration on
     December 5, 2000. The Company discounted the promissory note to $49,067
     utilizing a 16% interest rate and wrote off $1,611 of receivable related to
     the franchise location. Consequently, the Company recorded $50,678 of
     goodwill which is being amortized on a straight line basis over 10 years.

Based on numerous factors, including but not limited to the Company's historical
losses, management believes that it cannot currently demonstrate that it is more
likely than not that it will fully realize all of the benefits of deferred tax
assets existing at September 30, 1998. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has
been provided for the full amount of the Company's deferred tax assets.

At September 30, 1998, the Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward
of approximately $4,135,000. If not used to offset future income, these loss
carryforwards will expire between 2002 and 2012. Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act
of 1986, use of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards may be
substantially limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50%
occurs within a prescribed testing period. Equity transactions may have resulted
in such a change and would likely result in a limitation of the amount of net
operating loss that may be used annually. Further, the limitation may render a
substantial portion of the Company's net operating loss carryforward unusable.

     warrants to acquire 35,000 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share were
     issued. These warrants expire September 30, 2001 and have piggyback
     registration rights. In connection with this offering, the Company issued
     52,319 shares of its previously unissued common stock and paid $5,502 as
     offerings cost.

     On September 15, 1998 the Company issued a total of 16,668 shares of common

     554,761 shares of common stock as follows: 463,096 shares were issued to
     shareholders to convert $127,352 of debt to equity and an additional cost
     of $34,885 as a result of the inducement to convert, 91,665 shares of
     common stock were issued in lieu of cash for directors' fees for a total of

     fifth (1/5) of a share of Common Stock, (ii) increase the number of
     authorized shares of Common Stock to 100,000,000, (iii) authorize

     Directors to establish series of Preferred Stock by fixing and determining
     the designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights, including
     voting rights, of the shares of any series so established. The issue was
     passed by the shareholders.
 
     1998 Stock Option Plan

     On July 6, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and
     recommended for the submission to the shareholders for their adoption the
     1998 Stock Option Plan of Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. (the "1998 Plan")
     which would be effective on July 6, 1998 subject to the shareholders
     approval. The 1998 Plan was approved on August 18, 1998. The purpose of the
     Plan is to provide officers and employees of the Company and its
     subsidiaries and other eligible individuals an incentive through grant of
     options to acquire stock in the Company and encourage them to remain in the
     Company's service.

     Under the Plan, the Committee may, at any time prior to July 6, 2008, grant
     to eligible persons either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock
     options for an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
     Any unexercised or canceled stock options may be reoptioned under the Plan.
     Although not eligible to receive grants of incentive stock options, members
     of the Board of Directors of the Company who are not full-time employees of
     the Company or one of its subsidiaries are eligible to receive grants of
     non-qualified options. Directors who are full-time employees of the Company
     or one of its subsidiaries are eligible to receive grants of either
     incentive stock options or non-qualified options. The Committee may issue
     the options to different optionees subject to varying vesting requirements.
     The exercise price of any options granted under the Plan may not be less
     than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares of Common Stock
     on the day the option is granted, except that, with respect to options
     granted to persons owning more than 10% of the Common Stock on the date of
     the grant at which time the price must be at least 110% of the fair market
     value. The Plan was approved by a vote of the shareholders.

     SFAS 123 Pro Forma Information

     Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is
     required by SFAS 123, and has been determined as if the Company had
     accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of
     SFAS 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of
     grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following
     assumptions for the year ended September 30, 1998; risk free interest rate
     of 7.2%; dividend yield of 0%; expected life of the option 5 years; and
     volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common
     stock of 0%.

     The Black Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
     estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting
     restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation
     models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the
     expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock
     options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded
     options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can
     materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the
     existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the
     fair value of its employee stock options.

     For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
     options is amortized to expense over the option vesting period. Adjustments
     are made for options forfeited prior to vesting. There was no effect on
     compensation expense, net loss, and net loss per share (basic and diluted)
     had compensation costs for the Company's stock option plans been determined
     based on fair value of the date of grant consistent with the provisions of
     SFAS 123.

Warrants

     During fiscal 1998, the Company granted warrants to purchase 17,000 shares
     of common stock to one non-employee of the Company. These warrants expire
     through December 2000, and are at an exercise price of $.40. The charge to
     operations as a result of this grant was diminutive.  The warrant has
     piggyback registration rights.


11.  Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Obligations

     The Company leases office and warehouse space in San Juan Capistrano,
     California, and retail space in each city in which it has a retail store.
     Rent expense in 1998 and 1997 was approximately $197,000 and $177,000,
     respectively, and future commitments are approximately $217,000, $166,000 ,
     $117,000, $83,000 and $50,000 in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003,
     respectively.

Litigation

     The Company was sued on June 14, 1996, by Biogime International, Inc. for
     damages related to alleged breaches of the master transaction agreement and
     the standstill agreement signed in December 1995. On November 20, 1996, a
     settlement was reached and the Company paid Biogime $20,000.

     The Company is subject to other claims arising from normal business
     operations. Management believes that losses arising from these claims, if
     any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
     position or results of operations.


Employee Benefits

     The Company has a group medical plan which provides medical and hospital
     benefits and term life insurance to its employees, including officers. This
     coverage is provided at no cost to the employee, and the Company partially
     pays the dependent coverage. The cost of group medical was approximately
     $38,507 and $15,295 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Infomercial Agreement
 
     The Company has an agreement with a production company that obligates the
     Company to pay royalties based upon the sales made as a result of the
     infomercial that is currently intended to air in 1999.

Fourth Quarter Adjustments

     No material adjustments were made in the fourth quarter of 1998.
     Adjustments were made in the fourth quarter of 1997 to accrue expenses
     totaling $43,000.

ITEM 8.   CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
          ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

     On June 11, 1997, KPMG Peat Marwick, LLP, previously the principal
     accountant for the Company, was dismissed and on June 16, 1997, Ernst &
     Young was engaged as principal accountants. The decision to change
     accountants was approved by the Board of Directors.

     In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended September, 30,
     1995, and the subsequent interim period through June 11, 1997, there were
     no disagreements with KPMG Peat Marwick, LLP on any matter of accounting
     principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
     or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction
     would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion
     to the subject matter of the disagreement.

     On September 15, 1998, Biozhem Cosmeceuticals, Inc. (the "Company")
     received the written resignation of Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y" ) as the
     Company's independent auditors. E&Y informed the Company that due to the
     Company's  current size, which it is not consistent with E&Y's client base,
     it is not economically feasible for them to continue the independent
     auditor relationship.

     In connection with the audits of the two most recent fiscal years ended
     September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1997 and through the subsequent period
     ended September 15, 1998, there were no disagreements with E&Y on any
     matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
     disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not
     resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in
     connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

     E&Y's auditors' report on the consolidated financial statements of
     Entourage International, Inc. as of and for the years ended September 30,
     1996 and 1997, contained a separate paragraph stating that "the Company's
     recurring operating losses and working capital and stockholders' equity
     deficiencies raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
     going concern. Management's plans as to these matters are also described in
     Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
     result from the outcome of this uncertainty." This was the only
     modification matter in E&Y's reports for the last two fiscal years.

     As of October 30,1998, the Company engaged the firm of Corbin & Wertz as
     the Company's independent auditors.

     During the two most recent fiscal years ended September 30, 1997 and
     through the subsequent period ended October 30, 1998, the Company has not
     consulted with Corbin & Wertz regarding the application of an accounting
     principle or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered. Corbin &
     Wertz has had the opportunity to review the disclosure herein and has
     indicated that they are in agreement with such information.
