Healthy Skin For All New Zealanders

Healthy Skin For All New Zealanders

This week heralds the launch of the most exciting new online site – New Zealand’s first skincare forum. Healthyskin.co.nz went live for the first time today after months of planning and development. Now there is a place for all Kiwis to discuss and learn everything about maintaining healthy skin.

Head developer and administrator of the site, James Crow, says it is long overdue.
"The idea of the forum was to establish a community where people from all over New Zealand could come together to help each other as a community," he says.
"The best part is that as the site grows people will begin to develop their own smaller support communities within the site; parents helping parents, eczema sufferers helping eczema sufferers."

The site is capable of catering to everyone interested in learning and sharing about skincare issues, from baby care topics, to sunburn to cosmetic ingredients.
“People will come for health, for beauty, or just to learn something new."

The site’s next goal is to involve the medical, naturopathic, and Rongoa Maori healing communities to further develop the site with information for everyone.
"The best thing people can do now is get along to the site, join up and start getting involved."

Crow expects the sites community to total five to ten thousand by the end of the year.
"All it takes is caring people and we have plenty those in New Zealand."
