She completed a general surgery internship, urology residency and female pelvic medicine fellowship at UCLA.  GLISSANT ​intimate lubricants were created and designed for the woman ​who knows what she wants.   As a physician at Cedars-Sinai specializing in female pelvic medicine, Dr. Eilber often heard her patients tell her that they avoided sexual activity because of pain due to vaginal dryness. They wanted a lubricant that was natural and without hormones or harsh chemicals, but there was nothing she could recommend.  She knew with the help of her friend Renée and her experience utilizing natural ingredients that they could develop a product that would actually help ALL women who deserve to enjoy intimacy without fear of pain.
