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.

]]>I have researched botanicals for over 20 years and have came across much valuable information. I am fascinated by the power of herbs. I found that herbs can naturally improve many skin conditions.
You have Hidden “Assault Intruders” in your body. Herbs can blast them away.
There are so many skin ailments in our society today. There are habits that we engage in that may be causing many of our skin problems.
Many have acne problems who blame these unsightly “Zits” on oil build-up, dirt and clogged pores. These may be the least likely suspects. The major problem of many skin ailments is “Toxin build-up” in the body. Many of these toxins come from the very foods that we eat. There are hidden “Assault intruders” in the very foods we eat. And yes, the industry knows that they are in there and that they are bad for you. Hence, why your body tries to spit them out.
Our bodies are bombarded with 100’s even thousands of these “assault intruders” everyday. Toxins can come from our environment. But, mainly from the foods that we are eating. Take the time to read the ingredient labels on your food purchases before thinking about putting them in your mouth. If you can’t pronounce an ingredient, then there is a good chance it is not organic food. It is an un-welcomed chemical additive. Next time you see one of these intruders listed on your ingredient label, Google it. Find out what it is. See what it is used for and the negative chemical reactions that it can have on your body.
When there is an overload of toxins in your body, what your body tries to do is get rid of them. Some may come out by regular everyday elimination. But, many toxins are bombarding your system every day and the regular everyday elimination may not be enough.
Your skin is your body’s largest organ. The skin, through it’s pores helps eliminate toxins. The more you sweat, the more your body is ridding itself of these intruders. But, considering the overload of these “assault intruders”, the skin tries to eliminate such huge amounts that skin problems do occur physically on your skin. One large cause of acne is body toxin waste showing up on the surface of your skin.
Herbs to the Rescue.
There are herbs that even when taken topically through the skin can eliminate toxins right out the skin and giving you a healthier look and radiant skin.
Here are some beneficial herbs that can eliminate these toxins, right out of your skin. Acne can be easily cleared up in a matter of a few days, as well as many of your skin ailments.
Dandelion has been given a bad wrap by the media and weed killer industries. Dandelion is a very therapeutic herb for our body. Dandelion is not an unsightly weed with no purpose, but to haunt your lawns. Did you know that dandelion eliminates cancer cells from your body when taken internally ? Topically, it is beneficial in soothing and repairing sun-damaged skin. Dandelion with Sage, which is another therapeutic herb eliminates toxins out of the skin and clears acne. ]]>

Men have approximately 15% oilier skin and significantly larger pores than women do. Basically, this means you get dirtier. It is very important; no matter what skin type you have, to clean your face every day. Deep cleansing is important. It keeps pores clear, skin healthy and you looking good.
Cleansing products should be as chemical-free as possible. Deodorant soaps shouldn’t be used on your face. They cleanse with harsh ingredients and leave a detergent film behind. This may irritate your skin and will clog your pores. Go natural.
A good scrub is essential for
healthy skin . It will remove dead cells and smooth the surface of your face. The scrub should be strong without being damaging. Stay away from scrubs that contain rough elements like ground bits of nut or seed extracts. They will tear and damage the skin. A good scrub will invigorate you, not hurt you.
Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face after cleansing and shaving and don’t forget your neck!
For an intensive moisture treatment use pure vitamin E, or aloe vera oil. It is available in liquid form, or just break open a capsule and apply the oil directly to the skin. This is a great under eye treatment. Remember it is very important to moisturize this sensitive area of the face. It is one of the first places to show age because the under eye skin secretes no necessary oils on its own.
#2 Keep it toned.
Because men are outside more than women are, environmental debris and pollutants are more a factor to their skin’s health. Toning helps keep the skin clear and firm.
As skin ages, it needs to work harder to maintain its elasticity. Astringents and toners with glycolic or alpha hydroxy acids work the best for toning the face. These acids actually can reduce the pore size, and help avoid ingrown hairs. They are aggressive and have quick results. Remember to look for a product that is not photosensitive (sensitive to light).
#3 Treat your skin.
Depending on your skin type (oily, dry or combination) and the time of year, there are different products that treat and enhance your skin. Different treatments will have very different results. It is important to know your skin’s needs.
All types of skin need to be exfoliated. This is the removal of dead skin cells that form daily. This is an essential part of skin treatment.
After shaving, you need to moisturize with a product that has absolutely no alcohol in it. Avoid heavy fragrant after-shave products too, as they can irritate the skin.
Skin that is too shiny doesn’t look healthy, just greasy. Blot the excess oils away. Blotting papers or a light powder that will give you a more natural finish are both good options to try.
Don’t forget about your lips. Find a balm that has an SPF of at least 15 in it. Peppermint oil has a nice feel and keeps the lips looking luscious.
#4 Protect your skin.
Healthy skin
is young looking skin. There are preventative techniques that can promote the best skin possible and keep it looking its best longer. Remember that your skin is a mirror of your overall body health.
Here are the key techniques:
Avoid over exposure to the sun.
Sun damage leads to hyperpigmentation (brown spots) which can develop into serious skin disease. Excessive exposure can also exaggerate and thicken fine lines. Use an SPF 15 or higher on all exposed skin, especially on your face.
Stay in shape.
Exercise promotes capillary functioning which can decrease premature aging. It also increases oxygen to the tissues which keeps skin looking young.
Eat right.
Keep vitamins such as C and E in your diet regimen.
Everything in moderation.
Too much of anything is never a good idea. Stay away from excessive alcohol, smoking, fatigue and stress. Not only can these factors lead to premature aging; they also decrease facial circulation making you look older.

]]>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.
