Celazome Skin – a national skincare company based in St. Petersburg, Florida – has an unorthodox method for growing sales… and it’s working.
A division of Dermazone, Celazome Skin has been in operation since 1999 and is a woman-owned and operated business with a long-standing mission to support business women. Recently the company became a national sponsor of eWomen Network, one of the largest networking organizations for women in the country. As part of that commitment, all purchases of Celazome Skin products by eWomen Network members generate a donation to the eWomen Network Foundation. The women of the Celazome Skin executive team also attended the recent eWomen Network International Conference and Business Expo in Dallas, Texas.
The results have been phenomenal. Not only have sales increased, but over eight thousand dollars has already been raised in cooperation with the local Tampa eWomen Foundation.
“Women from all over the country stopped by our booth to tell us how much they loved our product,” says Carolyn Veroni, Director of Business Development of Celazome Skin. “It went so much farther than simple skincare. It was about putting faces and stories to what the products have done for these women.”
With a skincare line that includes pharmaceutical grade moisturizers, lotions and treatments the testimonials Celazome has received since reaching out to the business women have been powerful to say the least. Cancer patients, burn victims and nurses from around the country have shared their experiences about how their lives were essentially transformed by minimizing scarring and reducing soreness.
Celazome President Deborah Duffey explained how the company is taking their strategy to the next level. “With the power of the Internet we are now able to reach beyond the doctors’ offices and truly connect with these women. We recently launched a state-of-the-art eCommerce store and an aggressive social media campaign. We are really focusing on reaching out to the amazing faces of the women on Facebook.”
Being a savvy business woman herself, Duffey is quick to point out that they are not abandoning traditional methods of reaching out in favor of the new technology. She says that the executives at Celazome Skin are passionate about being active community members in Tampa Bay, and have a long history of supporting local charities that raise funds and awareness for women’s and children’s issues. Most recently the team has participated in the 11th Annual Walk/Run to benefit Ovarian Cancer and was a sponsor of the Moffitt Skin Care Awareness “Mole Patrol” event.

To maintain good skin you need to use serious skin care. This doesn’t mean that is order to have serious skin care you need to spend countless hours in the bathroom in front of a mirror. Rather serious skin care involves the careful analysis of your skin type and what specific techniques and products will help your skin look and feel great.
Knowledge is the key to serious skin care. When new and improved formulas are put out by the skin care industry you may want to consider trying these products to see if you get better results than your old products. However, before applying new products to the face you should do some skin testing first.
As your skin needs change you must change with it in order to maintain serious skin care. As we grow older our skin’s chemistry changes and as a result the products we use today will probably not give the same results in the future. Always remember to do a skin testing before you apply large amounts of new products.
Serious skin care also involves following proper instructions for application of the product. For moisturizers to be properly absorbed by the skin you should apply them with an upward stroke. Before you go to bed you should make sure you do proper removal of make up and application of skin care products. There may be harmful effects if you don’t properly remove make up before going to bed.
Protecting your skin from harmful substances is another factor in serious skin care. Allergic reactions on the skin can result from detergent. You don’t need a lot of products for serious skin care, rather you should take the time to learn which products work best and are safe for your skin along with the products that are harmful to your skin. Rather than making your skin look good, harm can result if you apply too much exfoliating products. If you want good skin results then you should avoid using too much of any product.
One of the main concern of skin care is the curing of any skin disorder. One of the most common skin disorders is acne and unwanted marks can be left on your skin if you squeeze out the pimples. A dermatologist should be consulted if you have any skin problems. In is best to get a dermatologists consent before using any products you see in advertisements and you definitely shouldn’t ignore the problem. Ignoring skin disorders may lead to permanent damage if you don’t start proper treatment.
The focus of serious skin care is more on precautionary measures rather than on curing the problem. Prevention is always the better option than curing. To prevent further damage you should start a skin care routine.

There are several categories of skin care products based on their uses:
1. Skin care products are categorized based on the type of skin they treat whether it is sensitive, dry or oily skin. To find the product that best suits your skin you first need to determine what your skin type is. Hormonal changes, climate, medications and your skin care routine are all factors that will change your skin type. Your skin care routine is strongly influenced by the type of skin you have.
2. Skin care products are also categorized by their use. These categories are cleansers, moisturizers, toners and sunscreens. Cleansers are the most common skin care products. The preferred products are those that are free of allergens and irritants. To make sure you get the right product you should check the label carefully.

4. The last category for skin care products is their ingredients. Some products have herbal ingredients while others have synthetic and cosmetic ingredients. There are active and inactive ingredients in products. Both the inactive and the active ingredients should work on your skin in order for you to get the best results.

confession to make. I’m a sucker for a good skin care tip. But then, aren’t we all? I have some skin care tips for you that will help your skin maintain a youthful look. 1. Do everything in your power to avoid too much direct sunlight. I know you’ve heard it before but this is number 1. Wear sunscreen and re-apply every 2 hours. Try not to be outside in the middle of the day. Wear protective clothing including a wide brimmed hat and long sleeved shirt. It isn’t sexy or what people want to hear but it’s the number 1 reason skin ages. Tanning is great when you’re young but the leather look that follows is not pretty. 2. You want to wash your face, but don’t scrub it free of oils. A warm wash in the morning and before bed is the best habit. Use natural cleansing products. Regarding any of the skin care products, the best skin care tip I can give is go natural. Organic products are less irritating, usually non toxic and just do a great job. 3. Moisturize daily. Any guide pointing out great skin care tips would also include using a really effective moisturizer. One type does not fit all with moisturizers. Find the one that best matches your skin be it oily, dry or normal. A natural moisturizer will be free of petroleum and fragrances. Petroleum will result in too much oil and isn’t absorbed naturally by your pores. Fragrances are irritating and can be toxic. A good perfume or natural fragrant oil can be dabbed on instead of rubbed all over your face in a cream or lotion. 4. A natural makeup that you use to accentuate your best features is also an important skin care tip. Makeup can definitely be overdone and tends to be hard on the skin. It can be oily and will definitely lead to clogged pores. The result here is blemishes and possibly acne. Always remove makeup before going to bed. 5. My research has shown that the best skin care tip I can share has to do with products being marketed for natural anti aging and skin care.

Avene is a product line created for individuals with sensitive skin who may have recently had a skin condition become reactive. It seems recently there have been more cases of skin issues than ever before, often leaving those affected being unable to treat themselves or use most products as they react to the products they attempt to use. Avene was created for individuals who are unable to use other products, focusing specifically on their needs in order for them to be able to care for their skin without having to sacrifice the products which could help them.
Avene skin care products can help an individual with sensitive skin by offering a wide range of available products which target multiple needs. For instance, anti-aging from Avene can help an individual remove signs of aging without the harmful chemicals which are so widely used today. Sunscreens are also important as they help protect skin from the harmful effects of the sun, which can advance signs of aging and create brown sun spots on the skin. These spots even have the ability to become much worse as you age but they can be treated or you can simply be prepared and make sure that these spots are something that you will not get or have to deal with as a part of your life and your skin.
Avene also has a great cosmetic line focusing on different needs including cleansers, make-up concealers, moisturizers, and make-up. Each of these products is aimed at sensitive skin and the needs of the body by meeting what each person needs without adding harmful chemicals. Avene cosmetics are especially important not only due to the amount of allergies and reactions which are transpiring, but also because of helping the way that you feel about yourself and your skin. Emotions are important for your health and when you skin is healthy and taken care of it can help you too become healthier and have an easier time taking care of yourself and feeling great about the way that you look at all times.
When a person feels self conscious about their skin they may also feel self conscious while around other people. This can cause a great deal of embarrassment and can make a person feel uncomfortable having company, or even worse, have them decide that they would rather give up a part of their social life. Nothing should get to stand in your way and Avene tries to make sure that nothing can not even sensitive skin. This means that when you go shopping for you skin care products, rather then roaming down the isles trying to find something you skin might be able to handle or trying product after product that you have a reaction to you can simply look for Avene. Feel the comfort of Avene and feel comfortable knowing that it will work and that you will not have to miss any social engagement due to the way that you feel about your skin or how it looks at the time.

Basically there are five types of skin, namely, normal, dry, oily, combination and sensitive.
Normal skin:
People with normal skin have soft and smooth texture. Normal skin have balanced amount of water and lipids. If a person has a normal skin, he/she has a very good skin. Normal skin also requires cleaning, nourishing and moisturizing. Every day in the morning, clean your face with rose water or astringent tonic. You can moisturize your skin with non greasy cream which is made up of organic or natural ingredients without petroleum by-products. After a hard day’s work when you reach home your skin may turn out to be filthy due to which you get black heads. In order to avoid that wash your face with a mild soap and apply an oil-based nourishing cream on your face. Gently massage your eyes with the cream, after 15 minutes pat your skin with a napkin. To keep your skin in good condition do follow certain steps- drink plenty of water, eat organic food, wear a sunscreen lotion to protect your skin from sun.
Dry skin:
During winter, dry skin faces lot of problems because it is very sensitive. Do not use commercial creams and lotions. Creams that have natural hypoallergenic ingredients are considered best for dry skin. After taking bath in the morning, apply virgin coconut oil, cocoa butter or shea butter all over your body. These contain some natural ingredients like essential oils, vitamin A, C, D and E and protein. Do not wash your face with tap water. Clean your face with mineral water, ice, toner, cosmetic milk. When you take a shower just spend three minutes a day in water. Use only mildest soap. Do not scrub your face. But use only a mild oatmeal soap, which will avoid irritation to your skin. If your skin has itchy spots, do not scratch over that. Apply coconut oil on the itchy spots.
Oily skin:
In oily skin you should try to remove excessive oil. Use mild soap only once in a day but wash your face 2-3 times a day. Always use non greasy moisturizers. Apply clay, papaya or yogurt on your face as it is the best mask for oily skin. Apply this for 20 minutes in a week and wash your face with cool water.
Combination skin: It is a combination of both oily and dry skin. Certain areas of your face are oily and certain dry. Mostly forehead and nose have more excessive oil and other areas like eyes and cheeks are dry. So the areas that are oily use oil skin tips and areas with dry skin use dry skin care tips.
Sensitive skin: This skin type is always very dry and irritated. Do consume a large amount of fatty acids, organic protein, yogurt and lacto-fermented fruits and vegetables. If a woman is vegetarian, they would develop very dry, wrinkled and irritated skin. Follow dry skin tips for sensitive skin.

Talking about skin care, ‘facial skin care’ seems to top the chart. There are loads of facial skin care products available in the market. The most common facial skin care products are the ones that are used as part of daily routine. These include things like cleansers and moisturizers. Toners and exfoliation ones are well known too but not many people use them as such.
The general classification of facial skin care products is based on the following:
* Gender (so there are facial skin care products for men and there are facial skin care products for women)
* Skin type (facial skin products for oily skin, facial skin care products for dry skin, facial skin care products for normal skin and facial skin care products for sensitive skin)
* Age (facial skin care products for old and facial skin care products for young)
* Skin disorder (i.e. facial skin care products for treatment of various skin orders like eczema, acne etc)
So that is your starting point for choosing a facial skin care product that suits you. A good way to start is by determining your skin type first. Also note that the skin type changes with age, so the facial skin product that suits you today, might not suit you forever and hence you need to constantly evaluate the effectiveness of your facial skin care product.
The facial skin care products are available in various forms i.e. creams, lotions, gels, masks etc, and a lot of people try to pit one against the other in their discussion on which form is best. However, one can’t really rate one form as better than another form. What suits you (and whatever you are comfortable with) is the best form of facial skin care product for you, really.
However, it’s important to note that these products work differently for different people. So the best thing is to try the facial skin care product on a small patch of skin (e.g. ear lobes) before actually going ahead and using it.
Another important consideration is the state of your skin. If you are suffering from a skin disorder of any kind, it is best to seek the advice of a dermatologist before you actually make your selection and start using a facial skin care product.
Once you have selected the facial skin care product for yourself, you also need to ensure that you use the facial skin care product in the right way i.e. follow correct procedures for application, use the correct quantity and make the facial product a part of your skin care routine.

1. Things to Keep in Mind
The biggest thing to keep in mind when shopping around for acne skin care products right for you is that everyone’s skin reacts differently to various products. There are many different kinds of acne skin care products to choose from with widely different ingredients and formulas. If you have acne prone skin, your skin will probably tend to me more sensitive to the various chemicals you may wind up using. You should take it easy when trying out various acne skin care products. Check for a bad reaction before you cover your entire face.
Remember, what works for others may not work for you. The only way to find out for sure if it will work for you is to try an acne skin care product and see for yourself.
2. Facial Cleansers
Probably the most often-used acne skin care products are various facial cleansers. Try and find one that is gentle to your skin, and matched to your skin type. Oily skin needs different care than dry skin, for example. It is important to use a different kind of soap for your face than your body; most body soaps tend to be too harsh for use on your face, especially if you have active acne. But whatever you choose to use, stay with it. Changing to different chemicals or formulas, especially after using one specific brand of acne skin care product for a while, can cause more harm than good. And be careful of skin toners! They can dry your skin out, making you more prone to acne. If you use a toner, you should also consider using a moisturizer.
3. Moisturizers
If you are using any acne skin care products with benzoyl peroxide, you should consider using a moisturizer, since it tends to dry your skin. Most wipes and some facial cleansers contain ingredients such as salycylic acid that can also dry your skin, so you should use a moisturizer as well.
4. Razors
Regardless of whether you use a bladed razor or an electric of some type, you must be very careful to avoid damaging your skin, especially if you have active acne. Keep the blades clean, and avoid cutting any blemishes you may have. The bacteria that cause acne can easily infect any razor nicks. The use of shaving cream can help prevent further irritating the skin. Whichever type of razor you use, you must be careful to avoid spreading or worsening your skin condition.
5. Healthy Inside, Healthy Out
Since acne is a bacterial infection, anything that boosts the body’s ability to fight off infection can help keep you acne free and reduce the healing time of any acne you may have already. Taking a good multivitamin rich in vitamins a and c help your immune system, while vitamins B6 and E, for example, are good for your skin. Foods with lots of sulfur such as garlic and onions can help speed the recovery time of any acne you may have.
6. Final Thoughts
With such a bewildering array of acne skin care products out there, it may save you time and effort to go see a dermatologist. They can make recommendations based on their experience and point you towards the products that are right for you. They can also give you advice on proper use of any products they may recommend.

Natural Treatment for Serious Skin Care
Believe it or not, your skin is the biggest organ of the human body. The principle
purpose of your skin is to protect your body from foreign agents. The skin
is the first line of defense against disease and infection. It is also the
skin that gives us protection against the sun.
However, it is also the skin that first betrays the effects of aging. Skin
ailments such as psoriasis or dermatitis can be irritating and make our lives
miserable. While we never needed things like wrinkle creams or moisturizers
when we were younger and our skin more resilient, the fact is that some degree
of skin care is inevitable as we age.
But skin care treatment is also necessary because of factors unrelated to
our aging skin. Dry skin is caused by a number of conditions and therefore
its treatment options will depend on the actual cause. Here are some causes
of dry skin:
Medication Side Effects
As a society, we have increasingly become dependent on medication for things
like high blood pressure, tension headaches, and even depression. Skin care
treatment for dryness may very well be necessary due to some side effect
of your medication for a completely unrelated condition. For this reason,
you always want to monitor any potential skin irritation immediately after
starting any new medication. If you already have dry skin and can’t remember
whether or not it was a problem before starting your medication, you may
need to consult with your physician and discuss an alternative medication
in order to rule out side effects as the cause of your dry skin.
Poor Nutrition
Skin care problems are often the result of poor nutrition. Our bodies require
a delicate balance of nutrients in order to keep everything functioning properly,
especially the skin. Vegetarians and vegans often run into dry skin issues
as a result of not consuming enough animal fats in their diet. A vitamin
B12 deficiency will cause your oil glands (sebaceous glands) to function
improperly, generally leading to acne.
Basically, any attempt to address a skin care issue (be it oily, dry, or even
itchy skin) should begin with a close look at diet. Dermatologists can best
assess potential diet-related skin care problems and recommend corrective
measures to naturally restore skin vitality. However, here are some foods
to avoid where possible in order to keep your skin as healthy as possible:
· fried foods (chicken, French fries)
· processed sugars
· caffeine, coffee, tea, soft drinks
· high fat dairy products like milk or cheese (consuming low fat
varieties of milk and cheese may not be great, but they are better for your
skin!)
Now the best thing that you can ingest for improved skin care is water. That’s
right, water. Water naturally removes toxins from your body-so the more you
drink of it, the purer your body will be. Drinking lots of water is especially
good for people with acne problems and it will also help reduce the onset
of wrinkles.
Skin Care Problems Due to Sebaceous Gland Problems
If you have ever been to a dermatologist because of acne problems then you
are probably very familiar with sebaceous glands. Because the skin needs
to be lubricated, it is covered with oil secreting glands known as sebaceous
glands. If these glands become clogged with dirt, then bacteria begin growing
inside and a pimple is the result. However, sebaceous glands can either become
clogged and dry skin is caused or they can produce too much and cause oily
skin. More often than not, problems with the sebaceous glands are due to
poor diet and can usually be corrected rather easily.
Skin Care Problems Due to Diabetes
Believe it or not, even diabetes can cause you serious skin care problems.
A person with diabetes has trouble regulating the blood sugar levels. When
there is an excess of blood sugar in the body, the excess must be absorbed.
To do this, the body uses a lot more water than normal and that can lead
to dry skin.
Skin Care Treatment for Dryness
While diet must always be part of any skin care treatment regimen, it is just
a simple fact that our bodies will need more help as we age. For this reason,
a moisturizer of some sort will ultimately be needed. To this end, it is
HIGHLY recommended that you use a natural skin moisturizer.
Moisturizers using natural ingredients are far less likely to cause the irritating
side effects mentioned earlier. Synthetic ingredients are often less expensive
to use in moisturizers but they are not the best skin care option because
the body is less receptive to them. Natural ingredients, on average, cause
fewer side effects and are therefore better where skin moisturizers are concerned.
Skin Care for Wrinkles
Wrinkles are probably the biggest cause of all skin care treatments in the
United States. As a person ages, the skin naturally becomes less elastic.
As a result, fine lines begin to form on the face which ultimately become
the wrinkles we hate so much. There are two main skin care strategies when
it comes to wrinkles: affect the muscles that reveal the wrinkles or fill
in the skin so the wrinkles are less noticeable. The first strategy involves
Botox and the second Collagen injections.
Botox Skin Care
A person is actually having a strain of Botulism injected in their face when
they opt for Botox skin care treatment. Botox actually interrupts the transmission
of nerve impulses to the muscles that reveal our wrinkles. It may sound radical,
but these injections do actually reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the
face for a significant period of time. Now these injections can be costly
and they must be repeated-but they are generally affective.
Collagen Injection Skin Care
Many people have a serious misperception about collagen injections. The perception
is that collagen is a form of fat that is injected into your face to fill
in the lines caused by wrinkles. Actually, collagen is an effective form
of skin care treatment for wrinkles not because it is fat-but because it
is protein. In fact, collagen is a special protein that helps cells and blood
vessels connect to one another. When this happens, the wrinkles fade because
the collagen helps the skin to “rebuild” in areas where wrinkles
form and actually fill in the lines. Again, collagen treatments tend to work
but they also are expensive and need to be repeated.
Natural Anti-Wrinkle Creams
A cheaper, but slower, alternative to expensive skin care treatments for wrinkles
is a simple cream. Anti-wrinkle creams work to rebuild the skin texture and
helps with the elasticity over time. However, unlike Collagen or Botox injections,
anti-wrinkle cream skin care treatment is only applied to the skin surface.
This is why it takes so much longer. Still, an anti-wrinkle cream is a cost-effective
and non-invasive treatment for wrinkles that does work if given enough time.
Again, in order to reduce possible side effects, stick with creams that use
natural ingredients as they will react better with your skin.

There are several active ingredients that have been clinically proven to be effective skin rejuvenators. One of the most effective treatments is vitamin A derivatives such a retinol or retinyl palmitate. Facials are usually done in salons. Never wash the face with hot or cold water. Luke warm is best.
