CHICAGO, ILLINOIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 14, 2001

Styleclick, Inc. (Nasdaq: IBUY), a provider of e-commerce services and technologies, today announced that the Nasdaq Staff has commenced a review of the Company's eligibility for continued listing on the Nasdaq National Market. Based on the Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2001 the Staff determined that the Company no longer meets the net tangible assets requirement, or the alternative stockholders' equity requirement, for continued listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(3) (or the alternative listing criteria under Marketplace Rule 4450(b)(1)).

In light of these conditions, the Company does not expect to be able to achieve compliance in the near term with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq National Market nor sustain compliance over an extended period of time. Accordingly, the Company expects to receive a Nasdaq Staff Determination indicating that the Company has failed to meet the continued listing requirements set forth in Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(3) (or the alternative listing criteria under Marketplace Rule 4450(b)(1)), and that its Class A common stock is, therefore, subject to delisting from the Nasdaq National Market. The Company does not expect to appeal a Staff Determination.

The Company's Class A common stock will remain listed and will continue to trade on the Nasdaq National Market until such time as it is delisted. In the event of a delisting, the Company expects to have its Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. The OTC Bulletin Board is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter securities. Further information about the OTC Bulletin Board is available at www.otcbb.com.

Independent of any delisting from the Nasdaq National Market that may occur, the Company will remain a reporting company under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. The delisting of the Company's Class A common stock from Nasdaq could have a material adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, Styleclick's Class A common stock.
