ABOUT THIS EXPERT

When Krizia received a severe topical burn after a laser hair removal session several years ago, she was forced to undergo numerous curative treatments at a medical spa. The long recovery forced this long-time devotee of skin care, health and fitness to come to terms with the fact that certain skin types and skin tones were not necessarily suited to all cosmetic treatments.

Krizia turned this somewhat unpleasant experience and her passion for aging well into a journey via www.mybeautymatch.com.

As the CEO of Beauty Match Network, Krizia has created an online magazine, a podcast show (Beauty Match Buzz) and soon-to-be launched video channel (Beauty Match TV) aimed at smart, savvy and mobile consumers, who don't have time to read every single article on skin care, anti-aging and aging-well methods, but who intend on looking as young as they feel.

As a GenXer, Krizia is always looking for ways of delaying, if not bypassing, more invasive surgeries while still feeling and looking as confident as ever. Truth be told, Krizia will do just about anything to avoid painful procedures. This strong desire to avoid pain at every cost has forced Krizia to look further than plastic surgery in her aging-well quest.

Krizia's last publishing venture became a critically acclaimed lifestyle guide that sold in Canada , France, the U.S., Germany and the U.K. Her guide was voted as "One of a kind" in the "Best Guidebooks of the Year" section of Air Canada's En Route magazine.
